Table skirting is a fun and effective way to make your tables pop with very little added expense or effort. Want to know the secrets of creating perfect table skirts for your next event? It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!
1 – Choose Your Style
Table skirts can range from elegant and formal to whimsical and fun. It all depends on what tone your event is trying to set. Choose a more refined look for a wedding. Go with something more light-hearted for a birthday celebration or graduation party. Select the brightest, boldest colors and styles for your children’s party. Whatever the occasion, there are table skirts that are perfect for it!
2 – Choose Your Materials
Once you know what general style you’re looking for, it’s time to shop for fabric. You can purchase premade table skirting from many retailers of party supplies and linens, or you could make your own. It really depends on your budget and the level of effort you want to put into the project.
For elegant events, choose finely-draping fabrics and tulle for accents. For kid-friendly affairs, go with cheaper fabrics that are harder to tear and more stain-resistant.
3 – Choose Your Design
With fabric in hand, it’s time to design your dream table skirting. The traditional draped or bunched skirts are simple yet beautiful, but they are not the only way to go. Consider also:
- Using tied, pleated, layered or ruffled table skirts to add texture and visual interest to your tables.
- Adding fantastic pops of color, floral accents, or create your skirt out of ribbons of fabric instead of large sections.
- Adding lights to your table skirting for a soft, pretty glow during the day and a bright, twinkling accent as the night falls. With table skirting, you really can do it all!
