Tabletop Inspiration: Dramatic Table Runners

Have you seen the latest issue of Adore Home Magazine? My favorite part of the entire (amazing!) issue is editor Loni Parker's 30th birthday party.  The decor and color scheme is simple, elegant, fresh and feminine.  The best part is that the gold chevron table runner is actually wallpaper! I never would of thought to use wallpaper to decorate a tabletop, but what an incredible idea. Most wallpaper rolls are about 21" wide, making it the perfect size to run down the center of a dining table - no cutting, gluing or sewing necessary. There are thousands of beautiful wallpapers out there to choose from in all different price ranges - the sky really is the limit with the design of your next party! As I looked around Pinterest, I found a couple other dramatic tabletops (both fabric) that give even more inspiration on what a pop of bold pattern can do for a table setting. What do you think about this idea?

  9. Thanks so much Julie for including Adore Home on your blog post! :)
    I was actually going to use fabric initially for the runner but things didn't go to plan (fabric took longer to arrive in the post than I expected) so I had to think outside of the box and decided wallpaper could work just as well. It actually turned out better I think - no sewing involved too which is a bonus! Thanks again,
