Add Another Layer
Add color, texture, and personality to your tablescape with layered linens and finishing details.
Layer a square linen over a round or square table to introduce contrast, texture, pattern, or another color into your design.
Runners add another layer to your tablescape and are perfect for introducing color or texture while highlighting centerpieces and place settings.
Sashes are an easy finishing touch for adding color, texture, or contrast throughout your event design. Use them to coordinate seating and other details with the rest of your tablescape.

A Helpful Tip
Start with the size of your table and decide how you want the linen to fall. A seat-length linen creates a lighter, more casual look, while a floor-length linen gives the table a fuller, more polished finish. Our team can help you choose the combination that works best for your event.
