Complement your table setting with a tartan braided table runner from Viva Home Décor.

We all are artists in our own sense. Choosing the right colors can literally change the landscape of our life as well as our table. Table runners effectively dress up an ordinary table. Available in different sizes and colors, get creative and use table runners in the many different ways.
A table runner ends should hang from the side of the table. The standard sizes of table runners available are 12 to 24 inches wide and 32-108 inches in length. Now you must be wondering, “ how do I determine the right size?”. Well, it’s a simple- measure the length of the table and 6 inches for small table or 12 inches for a big table that should hang down from the edge of the table. To determine the width of the table runner, it should be roughly 1/3rd the width of the table. If you plan to place the runner across the table, choose a runner with a narrower width that is about 1/4th of the width of the table. In-case you have a very small table runner whose ends do not fall off the edge, then you can use it as a center piece.
