Oilcloth tablecloth

7 replies

Willowtree2604 · 31/07/2017 09:02

Hello all
I'm looking for a good value oilcloth table cloth to use at times when I want to protect my table. It's six foot so think I'll need three metres and this is where you guys come in! Any recommendations for a good value one?! From the reading I've done I think I need to look for a cotton backed one so it hangs well? I did buy one before but it's basically a sheet of plastic and looks terrible. I love the Sophie allport designs but it would work out at £60 which is way too steep for a table cloth I'll be using a few times a year...
Any suggestions very welcome. Thank you!

Lots of places sell it by the yard, john lewis for one.
My latest cloth was from asda! It would probably be a bit small for your table though. They do seem to be back in fashion thankfully.

A quick Google has found this online company that offer a range of sizes.

Second the John Lewis recommendation, I always buy it by the metre there and it's always great quality. I've seen cheaper at Dunelm, but the quality reflects this imo.

Third the JL recommendation

The Range have rolls by the metre and a fraction of the price of JL.

We got ours at £3.99per metre. Bargain.

EBay is another place. We got a plain pink one for DDs craft table and I think I paid £1.99 a metre with free shipping. it did come from China though
