Useful Table Runner

Here’s a great idea for a useful table runner & food labeler. A runner that you can write on with chalk!

You can buy this black chalk cloth by the yard and use it for so many occasions. You can actually get a long runner by cutting 1 yard in half lengthwise, then laying the 2 pieces end to end.

Not only can you label buffet dishes, but also use under dinner plates and write guests names for place settings, and cover the kid’s table for them to draw on.
