A few of you have written to me about finding good, heavy-duty, clear table covers to put over your Passover tablecloths. Pesach is challenging in that we have two festive meals each day, usually with guests, but can't do laundry on Chol Hamoed. Unless you own lots and lots of tablecloths, it's hard to start each meal with a clean, attractive table. Oh, those grape juice stains and matzoh crumbs!
I hate using those disposable, flimsy, plastic tablecloths. Besides being pricey and not very green, they always end up tearing or pulling, and frankly just don't look very nice.
We use a very heavy-duty clear vinyl to cover our Pesach tablecloths. It wipes clean and doesn't look cheesy. I actually had mine cut specifically to the dimensions of my dining room table at Joanne's. I've suggested that to some of you and the response has been: no time! too much trouble!
So if you're looking for a heavy-duty clear vinyl tablecloth cover, Amazon has got some great solutions available. All of these ship free with Amazon Prime or SuperSaver ($25 minimum purchase), have finished edges and are a heavy .006 gauge or 7ml:
- 70" round, $8.55
- 70" x 90", $15.50
- 70" x 126", $17.99
- 60" x 84", $11.78
- 60" x 108", $11.36
- 60" x 120", $10.99
- 60" x 124", $14.99
Please let me know if you need other sizes and I'll scout around. And if you do decide to use a clear vinyl tablecloth protector, don't forget to have some fun with Pesach themed decorations-under-the-vinyl, like my friend Talia did back here.
As one of the people who has been pestering you about this, thank you! I never thought to look on Amazon and these are a third of the prices that I found elsewhere. I bought the 70" round one for my foyer table and the 70 x 126 for my dining room. These are GREAT!
