Elasticated tablecloth

**Minstrel** · 31-01-2009, 05:59 PM

I've read that a lot of you have these for you tables. Where did you get them from as i've been looking for a couple of weeks now and not seen them in any shops. My table is about 120cms by 70cms. How much are they roughly?

thanking you kindly x

Hi

I have just seen a pack of 5 wipeable covers (not elasticated) for £14.99

they measure 100cm x 150cm and have fruit on them.

hope this helps x

thank you!

The only reason i'm after the elasticated ones is so the they, and the table contents, couldnt be pulled down by a toddler.

I got mine from a lovely lady on ebay and paid about £15 for it, but I've just had a look and her web shop has gone

There are some more on there though by a different seller - just search for "fitted tablecloth".

That sounds like a good idea!
I have one of those oil cloth type ones, with coloured pencils printed on it from Dunelm, quite heavy so not easy to pull off the table..

Try and type Cafe covers in E-bay search engine and there are some nice printed circular elasticated table covers. They are PVC but very strong. Not sure if they do square ones though.

I've got the pencil one from Dunelm too

I also like the balloon one

elasticated table cloth....what an ingenius idea!!!!

i'll have to take a look and see if i can find one to fit my table!

**Alibali** · 31-01-2009, 09:33 PM

mine is from Dunelm too, and I used a staple gun to secure it to the underside of my kitchen table

Maybe not a great idea if you have a posh dining room suite though!

**Minstrel** · 31-01-2009, 09:35 PM

well not really its brand new not even built yet!

plus i'd like to remove it for my adult dinner partys (never had one yet but you never know!)

can someone post a link to the ones on dunhelm, i cant find them, have been looking all over in the shops with no luck.

**love381** · 01-07-2011, 03:06 PM

Am I right thinking an elasticated tablecloth will fit like an ironing board? x

This is what you're looking for in the fabric department. You buy it by the metre. At the moment I've got the nursery rabbit one & stick it to a child's Ikea table & chairs. It make it very easy to wipe clean

Some of them make good bases for tough spots etc. The nemo one is good to put in the bottom, then fill with water. It dries out pretty well afterwards.
