ISO burlap lace table runners

Ashlee, on January 23, 2017 at 9:32 AM Posted in Planning 0 10

My venue is a rustic open-aired lodge. Therefore, I do not want to take away from the natural beauty of it, especially the beautiful wood tables. I know I need to have some sort of cloth or runner on the table. I have opted to go for a rustic/elegant feel and feel as though a burlap lace runner fits what I am envisioning. I am not wanting to spend a ton of money on these, but I do want them to look nice. I will have approximately 170 guests, so roughly 21 tables. Where has everyone got their runners at and how much did they cost? Photos would be great also Smiley smile

ETA - Tables are 8 foot long each so runners need to be at least 10 foot.

    I got mine at Walmart actually. $6 a piece and they are pretty nice. They were way cheaper than the Etsy or even Amazon counterparts.

    As soon as I got them home, I opened one and looked to see if it was large enough. They come in two difference sizes.

    ETA: more details.

    Still not sure if I'm going to use table runners, but if I do, I'd probably make these! Just a couple whirrs of the sewing machine, and a LOT of fabric cutting (which is my least favorite part). I know these can end up being kind of pricey if you need a lot of them. Do you have access to a sewing machine? Or you could even use fabric glue instead. I wouldn't even hem the edges of the burlap, just cut a bunch of long rectangles and glue down a strip of lace in the middle.

    @Katie - Do you have a picture on hand of the runners you got? I'm searching Wal mart online right now and actually found one I like, but unfortunately I need it to be at least 10 foot (tables are 8 foot) and it's only 9.

    @Nicole - I do have access to a sewing machine. I am doing a lot of DIY projects (centerpieces, signs, escort cards, etc.) so I'm hoping to not pile another thing onto my already long list lol. Great idea though! Maybe I can assign my mom a job Smiley winking

    Ashlee, can your mom sew 6 inch lace on each end of the runner bringing those 9 ft runners to 10 ft?

    I've seen those on Etsy before. I can't remember the price.

    I was going to order from save-on-crafts but I looked up reviews. Their shipping is RIDIC
