The delicacy at your table

The Bouquet de lavande motif is a delight for the eyes. In linear shape, it is a parade of lavender boots attached by a link, which follow each other in different positions. They are lined with a green grid colonized by blue volubilis. On the width of the tablecloth, these large decors are separated by ecru or yellow stripes. This is a print full of freshness and brightness, perfect for spring season, an Easter tablecloth, for instance!

Many options

First, you have to choose the color. Not very complex until then: there are two very different ones. The bright and strong yellow may be preferred for an outdoor table, while the ecru color, softer, may dress easily a kitchen or a dining room table. Then, it's a question of taste.

After, you will think about anti stain treatment. Is it appropriate for your need? Here are some clarifications that will surely help you. The coating of the cotton fabric, originally very absorbent, is here made of a thin layer of acrylic. The coated sheet is therefore more impervious to stains. In case of a problem, simply wipe the spilled substance quickly. An easy maintenance that is also found at the time of the laundry: machine washing and iron (on the back) are possible. We recommend anti-stain treatment for table linen that is used daily. The protection saves laundry and especially ironing chores: you keep the tablecloth on the table, ready to welcome your little family.

Finally, you must select the length of your article: the indicated dimensions are converted from French centimeters. It depends on your table. Something to know : the length of the drop should be between 8 and 14 inches for an elegant tablecloth. If you like a model that does not fit the required dimensions, you could cheat with a longer plain sub-tablecloth.

Some tips : to wash your laundry, we recommend Marseille soap, a natural and really effective product that the washerwomen (lavandieres) of Provence used formerly. In addition to being environmentally friendly and harmless to the skin and the environment, it cleans and removes stains perfectly without damaging fabric. You can also use white vinegar as a softener: it's natural too. Do not hesitate and follow the example of Provencal housewives, back to fundamentals: it's good for you, for your home, and for the planet!

For TEFLON treated or coated fabrics: we recommend to iron on the reverse side of the fabric to reactivate the properties of anti-stain treatment.

Choose your tablecloth according to your table (shape and dimensions), how you use it (indoor or in the garden) and ... your preferences!

Which dimensions ?

Whatever the shape of your table, you may start by measuring length and width or diameter.

Once the dimensions known, make sure to add 15 to 35 cm (about 6 to 14 in) on each side for the fallout (30 to 70 cm in total, or 12 to 28 in).

If you do not know the dimensions of the table (for a gift for example), you may count in number of guests: therefore, allow a minimum of 60 to 70 cm (23.6 to 27.6 in) between each guest and apply this simple rule:

- For a rectangular table, the length of the tablecloth should be 150 cm up to 4 persons + 50 cm each time you add 2 more guests (for 10 guests, the length of the tablecloth should be 150 + 3 x 50 = 300 cm)

- For a round table, the diameter of the tablecloth should be 150 cm up to 4 persons + 30-40 cm each time you add 2 more guests (for 8 guests, the diameter of the tablecloth should be 150 + 2 x 40 = 230 cm)

Is coating useful?

The coating facilitates daily use and spares machine washes by allowing to wipe stains off with a sponge; untreated tablecloths offer a softer touch; Teflon-treated tablecloths offer 2 advantages ... Your choice will depend essentially on 3 criteria:

- Outdoor use: If your tablecloth is mainly used outdoor, we recommend that you choose coated cotton;

- Frequency of use: for daily use, prefer the coating to simplify maintenance. Conversely, for occasional use (party, reception, etc.), we recommend a tablecloth without coating for printed cotton or treated with Teflon for jacquard woven cotton.

- Your personal feelings: If you want to find the touch of 100% cotton, go for untreated or Teflon treated tablecloths.

Printed cotton or jacquard woven: a matter of texture

Printed cotton tablecloths and 100% cotton jacquard woven tablecloths are mainly dedicated to the 'art de la table'. They can have an acrylic or Teflon coating to prevent stain permeation. Printed cotton is lighter, for everyday or outdoor use. Jacquard cotton tablecloths are generally more refined, with very elaborate patterns and a texture that makes the drop off more neat. They are appreciated for setting a holiday table.

Jacquard woven cotton and polyester blend tablecloths are more designed for decoration, because this combination of materials and their weaving method allows a thickness close to the upholstery fabric.

In both cases, maintenance remains simple, and machine washing is possible at 30-40 °C, with a recommendation for washing at a 'delicate linen' program for the decorative jacquard woven fabric (because of the threads in relief). We recommend ironing all your tablecloths inside out, to prevent the heat from altering the beautiful colors of Provence. This is strongly recommended for anti stains treated tablecloths and it will reactivate the coating protection.
