Round Table Tablecloth Sizes

For round tables, consider the drop length—the distance from the table’s edge to where the cloth falls. A standard lap length drop is about 15 inches, while a full-length drop reaches the floor.

 

Here’s a quick reference:

48-inch round table: A 90-inch tablecloth gives a lap length drop, while a 108-inch cloth provides a floor-length drape.

60-inch round table: A 108-inch tablecloth offers a traditional drop, while a 120-inch cloth delivers a full-length finish.

Rectangular Table Tablecloth Sizes

Rectangular tables are popular for their versatility. Choosing the right size ensures a balanced look:

 

6-foot rectangular table (72 inches): A 90x132-inch tablecloth gives a floor-length drape, while a 60x120-inch cloth offers a more relaxed fit.

8-foot rectangular table (96 inches): A 90x156-inch tablecloth will cover the table completely, while a 60x120-inch cloth provides a shorter drop.
