The Dining Table

Our dining table has always been covered in table cloth to protect it from the playful kids. Think die-cast toys, scissors, crayons, whatnot. I rotate between cloth and vinyl on top of a protector. But it’s most often in vinyl since it’s easier to clean. I had always let it hang lose as I didn’t want the use of table cloth weights or clips. But then it often gets pulled here and there, and it moves as I wipe. So I went to find a fix to this.

In order to keep it tight, I did hospital corners.

And used duvet clips (Walmart) to secure the folds underneath.

I bid farewell to my cork trivets and welcome these cute LAGG trivets, of course from IKEA.  They look nice on the table even after the meal is over.
