festive oilcloth tablecover?

12 replies

I usually buy those thick paper table covers from waitrose for christmas night / boxing day (do have 'proper' tablecloth for lunch!) but as they are disposable I seem to spend a fortune each year. So I was wondering if there were any oilcloth / wipe clean festive covers about? Something that will us last a few years. DCs are still small (5 and 2) so santa is not ruled out!

thank you

Here, I have bought a few things from this site - you can have them made to measure which is handy. They have a few christmas designs that are nice, but also have a look at the main catergories because they have some lovely designs that would be nice to make christmassy without having trees etc on IYSWIM!

the range do them on the roll so you can have the amount you need. loads of different ones too.

Habbyboy on ebay has loads, or www.justwipe.co.uk

I bought one in The Range recently - very cheesy & christmassy Grin.

Worked out about £6 - think it was £2.99 a metre & I only needed 2 Smile

on pc now so can do links:

Habbyboy - have had good service in the past

Just Wipe

More pricey

John Lewis do it by the roll as well - more expensive than the range but better quality.

I've had oilcloths from The Range (not festive ones) they are pretty good and last well. Mine lives on the table all the time apart from when I have a naice tablecloth.

I may well get one for Christmas breakfast - I like to have the cover on, but I can pretty well guarentee that someone will spill coffee or sauce on it, then I'm running round trying to hide the marks or wash the cover Blush

thank you for the replies, i will try the range - even if its not festive. and i have also found some on just wipe at a reasonable cost. will also have a look next time i'm in john lewis - just to see what they have for research purposes!
