Using this tablecloth is a breeze. Just spread it over your standard 4 ft. table and enjoy the floor-length look. It's great for weddings, parties, and other events to add a touch of elegance. When it comes to cleaning, you can machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle and dry it at a low temperature. However, for the best results and to keep it wrinkle-free and long-lasting, we recommend hand washing and hanging it to dry. Remember, only the tablecloth is included in the purchase, so you'll need to get your own decorative accessories.
