NOLAN Table Protectors are made from a fantastic 100% Polyester with a textural linen-like weave and slubbing effect with an extra felted padding back available in 17 gorgeous colors. NOLAN fabric is stain-resistant and machine washable.

I have had so many people comment on this fitted tablecloth I made for my dining room table that I had to offer it here! This fashionable and unique table covering also serves as a protector for your tabletop. It can be left on continuously, or put it on when you have those "spilly" guests over, when the kids are having playtime or meal time, or when you are working from home and using your table as a desk. It's custom-made to fit snugly and stay securely on your table without the use of elastics or ugly fasteners. Sleek and chic, your table will look fabulous and be protected from life's everyday hazards.

If you're looking for the extra-secure fit, you can add marine-grade elastic hem in the options.

These are shipped folded in a box and will have some creases at first that will relax over time or can be removed with gentle heat application. If you want to avoid creases altogether, choose the "Rolled in a Long Box" upgrade option here https://www.etsy.com/listing/923428305/ This option will ship rolled around a cardboard tube cut to your table size that is great for storing your Table Protector when it is not in use.

- MEASURING -
You'll need a measuring tape and three measurements for this. Please see the "Measuring Your Table" diagram in the photo gallery for help, (zoom in for the clearest picture), and measure to the nearest 1/4" (0.5 cm). Please send me the following measurements in a message when you place your order so I can accurately make your table protector: L = the length of the table at its longest part, W = the width of the table at its widest part, T = the thickness of the table top, not including the apron if there is one (this will probably be in the 3/4" (2 cm) to 3" (8 cm) range) for most tables.

- CALCULATING -
A few simple sums and you're done:

For Rectangular, Square and Boat-Shaped Tables:
If your T+L+T= 68" (173 cm) or less, use the Size 1 option.
If your T+L+T= 104" (265 cm) or less, use the Size 2 option.
If your T+L+T= 140" (356 cm) or less, use the Size 3 option.
* If your T+W+T= 49" (125 cm) or more, your table is wider than a single-width of fabric will allow and will require seams. Please contact me for a custom quote.

- PICTURES -
Snapping a couple pictures is very important so I know exactly what type of table I'm working with and what the edge and corner details look like. Fortunately, this is very easy today with most people having access to a digital camera. Please send a couple good, clear pictures of the overall table, as well as some detail shots of the side and corners to help me make this perfect for you.

- FABRIC DETAILS -
The material I use to create your Table Protector is a very high-quality, commercially-rated 100% Polyester fabric with an additional 100% Polyester backing. The premium backing gives a soft touch to your tabletop or other surface as well as giving the main fabric extra stability and long-term wear-ability. The material also has a little bit of stretch to it and and a nice weight to make sure that it fits securely on your table without the need for ties or elastics.

The fabric has the following certifications and is incredibly safe to have around your family, children and guests:
* 100,000 Double Rubs - Wyzenbeck Method (the average family of 4 will only use 2000-3000 double-rubs per year)
* UFAC TB117-2013 Compliant (flammability)
* Stain- and Soil-Resistant
* Cleaning Code W (clean fabrics with water-based cleaning agents)

- COLOR CHOICES -
Too many color choices? 17 is a lot to choose from, but I do like to give you all the options. If you want to see your color choices in person, choose to get a sample package here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/583758056/fabric-sample-package and I will send you up to 5 cuttings to help make your choice!

- TABLE SHAPES & TEMPLATES -
Rectangular, Square, Boat-shaped, Round, Oval, Hexagonal, Octagonal - all of these are possible! Rectangular and Square shapes are easiest but if you have an irregular shape, or any curves, curved or beveled corners, I will need a template sent to me for an exact fit. The easiest way to do this if you don't have huge sheets of paper lying around is with newspapers - securely tape a bunch of the pages together to cover the surface of your table with a couple inches more hanging over and draw the outline. Fold it up and send it to me and I will send you back your beautiful tablecloth!

- TABLE LEAVES -
Of course I can accommodate table leaves! If you want your tablecloth to fit with the leaves in, just measure it that way. You can also get multiples in different sizes, one with the leaves in and one out, maybe even different colors for each? That way, your table will be protected whether you're having a bunch of people over, or it's just you. I can also make table leaf protector bags, so that when your leaves are out, you can still make sure the finish wont get any scratches. Contact me for a custom quote on these.
