Start With Choosing Your Tablecloth

A tablecloth is the base of your table setting, setting the tone and colour scheme for the entire table, which is why choosing the right tablecloth is so important.


Our tablecloths collection offers a variety of options, from minimalist to maximalist looks and fruity designs to bold florals or subtle stripes.


Bloom collection is designed to complement a range of interior styles, and there are plenty of options to find the right fit for your table and your dining space.

FAQs About Tableware

How do I choose the right tablecloth size?

To choose the right tablecloth size, measure the length and width of your table and add 20-30 cm to each side for the drop. This ensures that the tablecloth drapes nicely over the edges. For round tables, measure the diameter and add the same 20-30 cm for the drop.


What’s the best way to clean my tablecloths and napkins?

Most of our tablecloths and napkins are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid using bleach.


Can I mix and match dinnerware, or should it all match?

Mixing and matching dinnerware can create a unique and personalised table setting. Combine different patterns and colours from our collection for a unique style.


How should I arrange placemats on the table?

Placemats should be centred on each dining chair, aligned with the edge of the table. Make sure there’s enough space between each setting for guests to dine comfortably without bumping elbows.


What type of glassware should I use for different drinks?

Use water glasses for still or sparkling water, wine glasses for red or white wine, and cocktail glasses for mixed drinks.
