When looking for a linen tablecloth there are a two key points to take into account.
The size of your table and how you want it to look when set.  

Ideally, your tablecloth should be large enough to cover the width and length of your table, with a little extra length to drape over the sides. A 15-30cm drape over each edge is ideal, but you can do a little more or a little less depending on your own personal style. 

Plain or patterned tablecloth? 

Now that you know the size tablecloth you need the next choice is plain or pattered.
This really comes down to personal preference and the occasion you're styling for.

For simple and elegant settings, you can't go past a classic plain linen. For an event that can be a little more fun and playful perhaps a block print linen table cloth is what you need.

Our block print linen tablecloths have all been hand printed by skilled artisans in India. Their gorgeous floral designs sit so beautifully against the natural colour of the linen base cloth. 

How to wash a linen tablecloth

To ensure your new tablecloth stays looking it’s best for a long as possible, it's important to follow proper care instructions.
When washing, opt for hand washing whenever possible to maintain the fabric's integrity. If using a washing machine, wash the tablecloth separately on a delicate cycle to minimise agitation. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the linen fibres. After washing, refrain from tumble drying or dry cleaning, as these methods can cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric. Instead, allow the tablecloth to air dry in the shade to preserve its natural texture and colour. Once dry, you can choose to iron the tablecloth (on the reverse side if there is a print) using a cool setting to smooth out any wrinkles and creases. By following these care instructions, you can enjoy your linen tablecloth for years to come. 

How to keep linen tablecloths from wrinkling

Keeping your tablecloth wrinkle-free requires some care and attention, but it's achievable with the right approach. Here are some tips to help prevent wrinkles in linen tablecloths.

Hang or fold immediately

After washing, remove the tablecloth from the machine promptly and either hang it up or lay it flat to dry. Avoid leaving it bunched up in the machine, as this can lead to deep wrinkles.

Iron While Damp

If the tablecloth is slightly damp after air drying, it's the perfect time to iron it. Ironing linen when it's still a little bit damp makes it easier to smooth out wrinkles and creases.

Use a Damp Cloth

If the tablecloth has already dried completely and developed wrinkles, mist it lightly with water using a spray bottle or dampen a clean cloth with water and press it onto the wrinkles. Then, use a warm iron to gently iron out the wrinkles.

Iron on the Reverse Side

When ironing the tablecloth, turn it inside out or iron it on the reverse side to prevent shine or damage to the fabric. Use a medium to high heat setting on your iron, as linen can withstand higher temperatures.
Allow the linen to cool before folding.

Store Properly

When not in use, store the linen tablecloth folded neatly in a cool, dry place.
Avoid overly full drawers or stacking heavy items on top of your cloth, as this can cause wrinkles to set in.

Consider a Linen Spray

Spritzing the tablecloth with a linen spray before ironing can help relax the fibres and make it easier to remove wrinkles. Choose a linen spray with a light, pleasant scent to refresh the fabric as well.
Did you know our Trudon Room Sprays and Scent of Home Room Sprays can also be used as linen sprays? So many fragrances to choose from!
