If there\u2019s one place where we love to gather with family, welcome guests, or simply enjoy a quiet moment, it\u2019s around the table. That\u2019s why we enjoy personalizing it with a beautiful tablecloth, coordinated napkins, placemats, coated placemats, or even a table runner.<\/p>\n

Among our collections of cotton and coated tablecloths, you\u2019ll find a variety of sizes\u2014from square to round to rectangular tablecloths\u2014but the dimensions can vary widely! Choosing the right size can be tricky without knowing your table\u2019s exact measurements. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve created this practical guide to help you find the perfect fit for your table linen. Follow our advice and browse our collections to find the tablecloth that\u2019s right for you on our online store.<\/p>\n

Whether your table is round, square, or rectangular, it\u2019s essential to find the tablecloth size that best suits it. Measure the length and width of your table to select the most appropriate table linen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

STEP 2 \u2013 Calculate the overhang<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For the best look\u2014regardless of your table\u2019s shape (round, square, oval, or rectangular)\u2014we recommend an overhang of 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 inches) on each side. Once you\u2019ve found a design you love from our wide range of tablecloths, simply add 40 to 60 cm (16 to 24 inches) to both the length and the width of your table to determine the ideal tablecloth size.<\/p>\n

STEP 3 \u2013 Follow our tips according to your table shape<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your table is square<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Square tables are often found in kitchens and typically seat up to four guests. For a stylish and modern look, choose a tablecloth that\u2019s 40 to 60 cm (16 to 24 inches) larger than your table on each side.<\/p>\n

Example:<\/em> For a 130 x 130 cm (51 x 51 in) table, the Balade en hiver\u00a0square model (170 x 170 cm \/ 67 x 67 in)<\/a> will provide an ideal 20 cm (8 in) overhang on each side.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
