Bit Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen for my taste I'm afraid. Think the mats with the runner would look a bit busy maybe?

i dont use a table cloth
why?
you just have to wash it

Wags · 29/11/2009 19:27

This M&S one, the Damask one, is a bit more toned down, but twice the price

Its gorgeous wags.

I love the runner so will ditch those mats and find some plain ones.

I really do want a tablecloth, what colour would go best under that runner?

Sorry

meant
these tablemats from John Lewis

Wags · 29/11/2009 19:36

Mmm, now THOSE tablemats Mistletoe but with the original runner would be OK I think. Was just looking at tablecloths in John Lewis. Some Casa linen ones at a good price, one in Natural maybe? Got to go and listen to DD read now, will come back later!

Another plain one

RainDropsPlop · 29/11/2009 19:58

Those mats are fab mistletoe but a bit out of my budget. I need 6 and couldn't afford them at those prices

My budget is a small one

Love that runner wags but I think I'm going to try and work around the runner I linked to.

So I need to find mats and a tablecloth that go with it

Do you think I need black plates and bowls?

The runner is good, but I agree the tablemats would be too much!

I would go for a black tablecloth (would disguise any spills) and red mats.

White china would be great - not sure I would like to eat my meal off a black plate!

I don't like eating off black crockery? Not nice.

If there's an Allders near you they had £30 black (with a bit of sparkle) tablecloths yesterday for £10.

Wow, only just seen the price of the JL mats... eek. Next have a selection of table cloths and placemats in plain colours, also have a look at Debenhams on line, some stuff is reduced as well.

i got some really nice stuff in next for xmas table, a lovely table cloth, runner and mats etc.

but am annoyed with them atm as tried to order some more stuff tonight and half of its sold out! gah!

Matalan is quite good to, I got my stuff there last year. They had cute bauble place settings that you could write your name on. They only cost £2 but everyone was very impressed!
