velvet sweetheart tablecloth?

What size?

We'll be at a 6 ft table

A 6 ft sweetheart table? Yikes, that's big. I doubt you'll find a velvet tablecloth that size inexpensively. Have you considered a velvet table topper? That would require quite a bit less fabric which means less cost.

Even buying fabric and sewing the tablecloth will be expensive. Velvet isn't cheap and you'll needs yards and yards to fully cover the table. Can you use a smaller table? Sweetheart tables are typically small, not 6 ft banquet tables.

JoAnn Fabric stores frequently do online coupons for major discounts on fabric; you can go to the website or download their app. That black Friday suggestion is a good idea, too! Check local ads!

6 ft round?
