Table Skirting
Table skirting, as the name implies, is a skirt for a
table.
Table skirts consists of two components:
The cloth table topper and a skirt that fastens to the
table edge with clips, Velcro or snaps.
Traditional table skirting uses pins and preferred
fabric textures and colors.
Standard table cloths are not sufficient for over-sized
banquet tables – they shift, wrinkle and are rarely a
proper fit.
There is a table skirting solution for every table and
occasion.
Various table skirting designs are suitable for
wedding receptions, business conferences, or holiday
celebrations
