    Hey all,?

    We have some old rectangle table linens where the backside is shorter for when people are sitting at the table. I have been scouring the internet for something similar. I’m starting to think one of my predecessors just cut them. Do you all know of anything like this?

    Thanks,?

    Good morning Shane.? I actually looked for these a couple of time over the years, and I asked our rental linen provider about it.? The only real way to do this is to have fitted linens for the tables in question.? One can order custom linens that are full-drop in “front” and part-drop on the “back”, but they are stitched or seamed for the table top size so they don’t move.? I wouldn’t be surprised if someone did cut some, as I have been on the verge of doing that a few times :).? Happy hunting.

      Hello.
      A few years ago, we purchased “6ft Open back table throws for our Info/Registration Tables. We had them customized with out institution’s lockup on the front. Then went even further in customizing by adding our department’s lockup with “If found, return to our office” on the small back flap. Then right next to our lockup, we have a white area for us to write a number so we could track our inventory easier and be able to identify easier when we’re out and about on campus. . They are fitted for 6′ tables and work great with our 6′ Lifetime rectangle tables. Smile Promotions was the supplier from whom we purchased these.
