Using this table overlay is easy. Just lay it flat on your square table. It's great for adding a touch of elegance to weddings, parties, events, or banquets. When it comes to cleaning, you can choose to machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle and dry at low temperature. However, to keep it looking its best and avoid wrinkles, we suggest hand - washing it and hanging it to dry. Remember, this listing only includes the tablecloth, so any other decorative items you see in pictures are not part of the package.
