Choose a Floral Tablecloth by Color


Color plays a huge role in home décor. Each color you choose does more than complement the other hues in your room. They have psychological effects. They can make you feel happy, sad, energized, passionate or indifferent.

Therefore, you must choose a tablecloth color that fits well with your home décor and suits your mood. Consider the room of the home and the vibe it inspires. Go from there to determine the best color choice.

Some people purchase tablecloths for a specific occasion. This adds another element to the decision-making process. You must consider which color best suits the occasion. Which will capture the emotion of the event and fit the casual or formal vibe?

Choosing a Floral Tablecloth by Shape


After determining a color that works best for your interior design and occasion, you must choose a tablecloth shape. Like dining room tables, tablecloths are generally round or rectangular. Consider your table shape and event to determine which is right for you.

Your tablecloth shape is closely related to another element, tablecloth size. How do you determine the measurements best suited to your table?

Start by measuring the table to determine its diameter (for round tables) or length and width (for rectangular tables). Add in the drop. A 6-8” drop is recommended for casual occasions, while a 10-12” drop is more suited to formal occasions.

For rectangular tables, add two to your table’s length and width to determine the ideal measurements with the drop included. For round tables, multiply your desired drop by two and add that to the total diameter.

Nadis offers various round and rectangular tablecloths of various sizes. Here are some things to consider when choosing the one that’s right for your event.

 

  • Round Floral Tablecloth: Round tablecloths are typically suited to smaller tables, hence more intimate casual events. They may decorate tables in kitchenette areas. They may also provide coverage for small tables that sit aside large tables at formal events. For example, they may hold place cards or gifts at a wedding.
  • Floral Tablecloth Rectangle: Rectangle tablecloths are a go-to as most dining tables are rectangular. Since they are suited to larger tables, they are a popular choice for bigger gatherings. Choose from casual or formal colors and patterns to find the tablecloth that best suits the entertainment vibe.

Choosing a Floral Tablecloth by Material


Material plays an important role in the tablecloth’s maintenance and aesthetics. Some tablecloths are easier to clean than others. They may have nonporous, stain-resistant properties that don’t allow stains to sink in.

Stain-resistant materials may seem ideal for tablecloths as stains often occur on these surfaces. However, materials that hold up well to stains tend to be less elegant. They may be better for casual occasions.

It’s advisable to find a tablecloth that offers the ideal blend of low-maintenance convenience and elegant aesthetics. However, some materials are simply more suited to certain events. Maintenance can’t always be a priority. Fortunately, most tablecloth materials can be dry-cleaned if necessary. 


Nabis offers various tablecloths in a wide range of materials including the following:

  • Floral Vinyl Tablecloth: Vinyl is a convenient tablecloth material because it’s easy to clean. Its nonporous surface means stains can be wiped right off. Its shiny, casual appearance makes it an ideal choice for outdoor kids’ parties, family picnics, and barbecues.
  • Floral Lace Tablecloth: Lace adds elegance to any setting. It is lightweight and perfect for spring and summer. The material is perfectly suited to weddings and other formal events.
  • Floral Linen Tablecloth: Linen is a breathable fabric. It is soft, not prone to wrinkles, and water-repellent. Its versatile looks make it ideal for casual and formal occasions.
  • Floral Fabric Tablecloth: You can count on every Nabis tablecloth to be soft and versatile. Each offers an upscale appearance and optimal comfort. They are durable, easy to care for, and will withstand the test of time.

Choosing a Floral Tablecloth by Style


Floral tablecloths are a classic, but they can be further broken down by style. Your floral pattern can be bold to produce a modern aesthetic or toned down to promote a vintage style. Consider your interior design to determine which tablecloth style is right for you.

Your tablecloth style should also match the event you are hosting. For example, an upscale, nighttime event may call for a vintage or luxurious design. Bold, colorful prints are ideal for casual, daytime affairs. You may also find styles that meet somewhere in the middle. Their versatility makes them ideal for any occasion.

There are basic guidelines that determine which tablecloth styles are best suited to specific interiors and events, but creative designers should not be confined. Feel free to mix and match styles to find the ideal vibe. Go with your gut when deciding which tablecloth will best suit your events and occasions.

 

Nabis offers several tablecloth styles to choose from. Our selection includes:
