I have a glass dining table ..and I have come to a point of dreading guests coming to my place .. since the table gets new scratches everytime
I need a tablecloth , what material should i choose? I want it to be classy and modern yet easy to wash … I was told white pure cotton tablecloth is easy to handle since you can even bleech it … but our desi khana stains are really hard to remove sometimes …
Generally my dining room/ kitchen theme is Black , Pink, silver and Brown. So please advise me what possible colors and material I should pick .
dear if u hv glass dinning table. then it must design work on its down mean foot. and it didn't look good such like cover. u use liquid for mirror clean. and if still u want in my point of view place the clothe plastic. means seesha plastic but cloth one means soft. it will not torn easily and easy to clean.
I'm sure you can this clear plastic coating for glass tables, like sticky back plastic but less sticky if that makes sense. I remember a friend having it on her coffee table and you couldn't even tell it was there but protected the glass against scratches.
Brit Chick, i cant seem to find that plastic sheet anywhere .. and the ones i have seen are a bit thick … do you know of any places i can find them? coz if i can , thats my first choice … ..
toyger, I do use placemats , but the scratches come on the non covered area specially with guests with kids , its hard to control their movement …
yeah u r right . in gathering it is hard to manage like that. it is upto the guest who behave or deal carefully. if u r in lhr then u can find these placement in liberty plaza, or nishat, breeze.
Is pure cotton considered a good choice in tablecloth? is it easy to clean? I have noticed in most shops here that the placemats and the tablecloth are pure cotton and i keep wondering , does it not stain ...
Hareem , I dont like that design :no: .. actually what i have in mind is like either a Plain brown or a black tablecloth .. with glossy/shiney/satin self printed table runner on top ..
My issue is i dont know what fabric wouldbe best to choose. Something thats easy to clean and wont stain . Any suggestions?
you might wanna try a plain table cloth(and runner) of your choice and then a clear plastic sheet on top....it protects the fabric underneath and also clean up is easy.
I personally do not like the plastic thing too much but since there is no other choice I have it on my dining table too....
chicken biryani i am in the same boat... before buying the dining table i didnt know glass could scratch taht easily... now i have to hide the beauty of the table (which was due to the glass) with table clothes not just when having ppl over but normally too... it just scratches insanely easily.
i think those plastic covers that cover the fabric tablecloth are kinda paindoo looking...but i do admit necessary...i try to avoid using it...its something that our moms would use...but if you have an nice trendy dining room/dinner party going on..that plastic cover can just ruin it...if u dont use it however u may be using your nice table cloth for the last time...
i would like to k now more about that clear platic thingy that britchick mentioned (the one that you could barely tell was on the coffee table) where can we get that one for...i would like to put something like that directly on the glass cover table...
**Yea we have that plastic covering on our dining table and it might not look great but it definitely makes it a lot easier to clean up!
Chicken Biryani : I live in the UK and it’s easily available from the Desi stores that normally sell anything and everything lol …I’m from Birmingham if that helps..**.

The plastic sheets can be found at Wal-Mart. They sell it by the yard.
only with a tablecloth under the table runner … to avoid any areas being exposed to scratches …
