another project.

Please excuse me for not writing an interesting post today. You see, I was busy all night making one of these.
A 20' long teal taffeta table runner (how's that for alliteration?). One down, twenty more to go. They are kind of a pain to make, but look at how shiny they are! Please excuse the random threads, the fabric frays easily so I need to clean up the edges.
Here's a rough mockup of what they'll look like on our tables. Except the table will be twice as long and all of the chairs will be white. And the flowers will be different, these were just leftovers I had around the house.

What do you think? Are you planning to make your own table runners?

I think it looks great! How much did it cost you to make it? Your tables will look beautiful.

Oh, and your 4th grade teacher would be proud of your alliteration :)

Looks great! I made table runners for our reception and boy was it a pain. Hang in there!

I just started making table runners today for my wedding. I chose a fabric that is a real pain in the butt to sew so it is going to take me forever! I thought it was such a better idea than renting from the limited selection available.

they look great! good stuff. Our are already sorted by the venue - just white, I think. With white ceramic shallow trays of riverstones and candles running down the middle.
To soon to confirm!!
