The Sports Fan’s Patio table cloth

Ok so you already know that patio furniture is a large investment and you want to get the most out of it. For this reason anything that will help your patio furniture to last should be considered. The big game is coming up and the friends and family will be poring over soon. This is a great way to visit with family and friends but it does require a little planning and work to clean up and get everything ready.

You may be short on time and a quick sweep up or wash down of everything with the hose is all you can do. Once everything is dry why not put a table cloth over that patio table whether old or new. This can’t just be any table cloth it needs to show your team pride! Where do you get a table cloth that will show your team logo? This can be tricky many stores get a limited quantity thinking people like you (with such passion about their squad) rarely come in. Call around to your local big box store, drug store, or hardware store before going out to look. Search the internet too. It may take a day or so to get to you but at least you will have it. Unnecessary you say? When is the last time you saw a table cloth with the almighty symbol of your favorite squad!? NEVER I would guess. Or maybe once back in college. Most people forget about this detail of their fandom.

The other route is less impressive and anyone could do it. Just get two table cloths of the colors of your team and then tape or staple them together. At least doing this looks better than one color on one table and another color on another table. Try folding the table cloth in half to either make a rectangle or a triangle shape. Then fold the other to make a matching shape. Staple them into that shape then staple them together. Put the creation on the patio table and then use decorative rocks or tape to keep the table cloths from flying away. Only you and I will know you failed to find the elusive team logo table cloth but that’s ok. This method can be done at a dollar store for two bucks.

With a little planning you can use patio table cloths to add a boost to any outdoor experience and spruce up your patio furniture.
