Summer is all about simplifying

The summer tablecloth:

This tablecloth is a great idea and an easy project to do.

2 Sections of Tablecloth (4 beach towels)

A table cloth that will work on a really long table and is user friendly is not something that is easy to find.
Summer is just plain too short to deal with ironing.

I think this is a great inexpensive solution for an easy to maintain table cloth. I bought 4 beach towels at Marshalls for $12.99 each. I seamed 2 beach towels together, I have done this with 2 sections. I thought seaming 4 beach towels together might be too much to deal with and you have more freedom this way.

When you need both sections (all 4 beach towels) for large family functions you can tie them together with clothes pins or safety pins. Another way to bring the 2 sections together is to add ties with ribbon or cut up a towel for ties. To dress it up I thought about adding grosgrain ribbon in navy blue along the edges or you can border it with a fabric.

Voila! You have the ultimate table cloth for a lobster bake that you can throw in the wash when you are done.
