2. What is the main
purpose of table
skirting?

3. Table skirts offer more coverage than typical tablecloths that
leave the legs and space under the table exposed. They are an
inexpensive solution for covering weathered, damaged or
unattractive tables. From start to finish, a lot of work goes into
making table skirts to custom-fit table sizes and shapes.

4. Like a skirt in a wardrobe, a table skirt is a way to
dress up a table. Similar to tablecloths, they wrap
around the edge of a table leaving the top uncovered.
Chosen in a fabric to match existing décor, a table skirt
adds style and function to a room. Table skirting is just
as the name implies---a skirt for a table.

7. • A long cloth used for table skirting. Usually this cloth is intended
for buffet and banquet table to accommodate big crowd for more
festive mood.
• For a buffet table, the minimum size of the tablecloth required is
2x4 meters.
• Table skirts can range from formal and decorative to simple and
casual, depending on the fabric you choose. Satin, embroidered
upholstery fabric and bright white fabric of any material usually
create a more formal look. Floral patterns, neutral cottons, and
solid or patterned polyester fabrics can be used for everyday table
skirting that can be washed as needed and requires little upkeep.
