Wedding Reception
Fabric for table runners

I am so excited! After weeks of looking for the perfect fabic to make table runners out of, I FINALLY found it. It is made of a tafeda and the Damask print is raised velvet. It is so luxurious. My fiance's Aunt has volunteered to make 30 table runners for dinner tables as well as runners for the candy Buffet, head table, and coctail tables in the room where we will be dancing. The fabic was an exceptional deal too. I purchased 15 yards for just under $100.
Now I am starting to reconsider the yellow accent color. Yellow is my fiance's favorite color, but now that I have the fabric, I'm not sure that yellow flowers centerpieces are going to look all that good. I feel like it needs a deeper color so that the flowers really pop against the fabric. I was thinking red. When I talked to Nico about my color changing, he said that first we had to buy some yellow flowers to confirm that the red would look better. I thought that was a good compromise. I think I'll get my way though. :)

I just bought wrapping paper that is just about exactly like that.  My wrapping paper even has the raised velvet.

There is a ton of yellow and damask out there. I think the yellow flowers will work. Love the taffeta fabric by the way!

The place where I got the fabric is called "home Fabrics". they may only have them in california, I'm not sure. they do have a wesite though: www.homefabricsonline.com
I know that they are doing free shipping though. The item number of the fabic is: 290753 Jacquard, CP7803L 11B
If you cannot find it online, you can call one of the store sand they will mail you how ever many yards you need. They said that the San Diego store had over 85 yards of it. It is $6.99 a yard.
You know what, I just looked at my receipt, and I think there corporate office is in Las Vegas because there is also a customer service number on there. It is (702) 838-7474 or 1-800-861-9550
The fabic is 56 inches wide and the tables at our venue our 48inches so I am going to cut the fabic horizontally so that I can make them 56inches long and can get three table runners out of each yard. So they come out to about $2.00 a runner.
Let me know if anyone needs any other info.

Yellow will so go with Damask.  I thought about because yellow is one of my FH's country (Ghana) colors.
