Table Linen alternatives

Table linens that are often used for events tend to be pretty expensive. If you are planning a smaller event or maybe even just a dinner, you may want to explore other options for your linen. Typically you would turn to a rental company for this. But you don't have to go super expensive. Visit your local party store. You may not be into the plastic tablecloth look, but there are some that are made of other materials. The paper ones don't have the shiny look that you get from the plastic ones. Regular department stores such as Macy's and JC penny have good finds as well. BUT my very favorite cost effective thing to do for my table linens is to use curtains. Yes curtains! You can find different patterns and textures. I love to go to Mauburns and browse through the selections and even better, the clearence sections. Choose the length based on the size table that You're dressing. You may have to double up and/or overlap panels depending on the shape of the table. The sheers make for great overlays. They also have napkins and other items to help dress your table and space. Visit their website and find a store in your area.
