Christmas Table Runner

A Christmas feast table without a table runner atop it is just like a Rolls Royce car with classy interiors without a plush-painted body to complement it.

This is how valuable a table runner is in adding a classy scenery to your table of exquisite dishes, especially during the Christmas season.

Asides from the function of shielding the table from spills and gashes, a beautifully themed table runner also double as a fascinator compelling anyone in sight to have a meal at the table.

Type

Your Christmas table runner can be handpicked between a variety of gorgeous velvet types, chic cotton-jacquard red designs, and the delicately embroidered type, depending on your flair for style and beauty. The traditional Buffalo red and white check pattern is another option if you like to keep it simple!

Size

An average table runner ranges from 35 inches to 120 inches in length, depending on the table size, either a dining or side table. Meanwhile, an allowance of 6 – 8 inches is ideal to be left draping on both sides of the table.

Peradventure you are having a couple of kids around the table for the season, it’s better to stick to a short-length runner, but if your table is mainly for adults, an extra-long table runner would be best.

Design

Once more, you will have to consider the category of guests attendant at your table during this season.

Designs like the Gold star, Laporte floral, or Alpine berry table runner would be suited to a table meant for youths and children who have eyes for aesthetics. For the elderly, cotton crinkle extra-long, scroll jacquard, or oversized plaid table runners won’t be a bad option at all.

Price

Christmas table runners at the season range from $8 to $69, depending on the aforementioned factors.

Whether an expensive or modest table runner, ensure you stick to a fair budget that won’t empty your purse after the yuletide.
