Black and White Damask Table Runners

Does anyone know an affordable place to rent black and white damask table runners? TIA!

We made ours, it was way cheaper than renting. We got the fabric from JoAnns.

What dimensions are the runners that you made? Do you know how much you spent per runner? I'm having trouble even finding anyone that has them.

Ours are 20" wide and 6' long. Our tables are 5' rounds so they will hang off 6" on each side, we had to do it that way because we could get a lot more runners per yard. We spent a little over $100 for all the stuff but it's going to take a lot of labor to do them and we are making about 22-25 runners.

Too bad your wedding is two days before ours, we are selling ours afterwards.

Have you seen this listing on Craigslist?  Lots of B&W Damask stuff for sale!!

Our wedding is acutally 1 year after yours! hehe! its 2011! I would love to buy yours viejes! How much are you selling them for?

I have them in my bio under "for sale" I have been trying to figure out the right price for them. I originally had $8 per runner but realized I calcuated it wrong. I think we will be asking for about $6 a runner, which is cheaper than the cost of renting and you can resell them after your wedding, especially since they are super popular.

That is a great price. I am definitely intersted. I think we are planning on around 27 tables. Of course I will never know how many tables I need until we get the RSVP's back. So, that could be a problem if they didn't have the same material at JoAnn fabric still.

We have extra fabric to make more table runners, just in case we invited more people or more said yes than we plan for, so either way we have enough for 27 runners. Do you know anyone that knows how to sew? You can just buy the extra fabric from me too or we could possibly just make them for you....

I'm renting black and white damask runners for my May 30th wedding from Studio 6. My contact is Jean, and she has been WONDERFUL to work with.

I tried looking for my quote, and I can't find my copy anywhere, but i think her estimate was $185 for 20 runners.

I hope that helps!

I know you want Damask, but in case you can't find anything in your budget, I did see that efavormart.com sells runners in lots of different fabrics and colors for around $2.99.

I don't know if they have damask, though -- I think I remember seeing only solid colors.
