Natural Linen Tablecloth For ThanksgivingThere is going to be a lot of action happening on your dinner table during Thanksgiving, so make sure the table protected and looking wonderful with a nice tablecloth.

We recommend choosing a simple tablecloth so that it’s not overpowering the dinnerware and centerpieces. The cloth should be big enough to drape at least 6 inches over each side of the table.

When deciding on the colors of the tablecloth and the whole table setting, don’t be afraid to break away from traditional oranges and yellows. Instead go for neutrals, like whites, browns, and grays.

It’s always better to choose natural and long-lasting materials. If you are ready to make the choice and invest in beautiful linens, from table covers to napkins, you can be sure that your table design will stand out. Because of the durability linen will last and linen tablecloths tend to be passed down even to the next generations. Linen is also a stain-resistant material and it requires a very easy basic care. We offer linen tablecloths in various sizes and colors.

If you have never tried linen tablecloth you will be surprised how graceful, mild and strong it can be at the same time. And if you already have experienced nature touch of linen you will be amazed how smooth is our softened linen - thanks to the evolution of technology.

Use a wood slice charger beneath your plates for a natural look. Together with plenty of florals the wooden pieces with bringing in the vibes of nature and forest in the most glamorous way. It's all in the details.

For a natural look choose pumpkins as the centerpiece! You can mix mini pumpkins together with bigger pumpkins, or even mix pumpkins with pears or apples for creating a perfect setting. Depending on the color of the tablecloth, you can choose white or orange pumpkins. You can even paint the pumpkins in gold, to become a statement piece, however, we would suggest staying natural.

3. Add light
