How to make a Cheap and Easy Table Skirt

Instructions

1.Measure the length and width of the table and the thickness of the tabletop itself. For round tables, measure the diameter of the table and add the thickness of the tabletop.

2. Using scissors or a fabric knife, cut the cloth that will cover the top of the table to the table's dimensions plus 1 inch of overhang on all sides. The extra material is necessary for the seam for the second piece of the skirt.

3. Cut the fabric that will drape the table (and serve as the actual skirt). The fabric should be as wide as the clearance between the tabletop and the floor, and as long as the perimeter or circumference of the tabletop.

4. Warm up your iron to the setting stated on the seam tape. Overlap the two pieces of fabric, then put the tape over the seam and iron the tape according to the manufacturer's instructions. Tape the seam around the entire skirt.

5. Place the fabric over your table and drape it the way that you think looks best, making sure the corners properly align to your table edges or, for round tables, that the center of the fabric aligns to the center of the table.
