Table Runners

Whether you’re planning an elegant soirée or are looking forward to a family dinner, your table runner adds personality to your table. This versatile accessory can be used with a tablecloths or on its own, for formal dining occasions and casual meals, indoors or out, on a table of any size or shape. They come in a wide range of styles and colors to complement your décor and establish a theme. Some kitchen table runners are very casual, with bright colors, fringed or tassel detailing or fun patterns.

You can completely change the look of your dining room simply with your choice of table runner. Imagine a table set with simple white dinnerware. The addition of a blue table runner and white candles completely transforms the room.

Traditionally, a table runner runs the length of your table, down the center. This is the most formal option, and is still frequently used, but there are other options, too. If you have a long, rectangular table, try setting two matching kitchen table runners across it, the short way, with each set about ⅓ the length of the table from the end. Each will serve like a placemats for two diners, sitting across from one another. The splash of color and unexpected placement of the table runners adds energy and contemporary design to your table. For a round table, consider using two matching table runners making an “X” across the table.
