So having kids is ALWAYS messy. Well, the constant cleaning of my wood table was wearing on the finish. So thanks to my sister-in-law, she gave me this brilliant idea. I'm sure people all over do this, I just have a few tips to make it look good. Just go to walmart, in the craft/fabric section and buy the clear plastic, it's meant for picnic tables and stuff, it's on the big rolls... anyway its so cheap, you can get different weights too. I get the medium which is like 2.00 a yard... so at 6.00 dollars I don't mind getting a new one every 6months to year, depending on how messy it gets... anyway my tips:
Tip #1: on the edges, fold them into the inside and use double stick
mounting tape, I used 3M clear tape, anyways use the tape to keep the edges together... You don't see it and it holds really well. And it gives it a finished look and it keeps the table cloth from MOVING, that is key, it makes wiping/cleaning so much easier when your not trying to keep the cover in place!!!!
Tip #2. Not only does this protect your wood tables, it protects your table cloths!
Tip #3: Use window clings for EASY decorating!
