Runners offer a unique opportunity to introduce many different colors, patterns, and textures to your table. Create contrast by layering runners and getting creative with your combinations!
Mix and Match: Colors
While combining complementary colors isn’t exactly a new idea, try pairing a brightly colored runner with a more neutral linen, or mix two bright hues in the center of your tables for a bold statement. Layered napkins can add to the dual-toned look as well.
Mix and Match: Patterns
Don’t be intimidated by patterns, or by combining them! Either with another patterned linen, or with a coordinating solid color, providing a contrast can help emphasize the pattern you choose.
Mix and Match: Textures
More than just the material, you can create texture with the way you style a runner on your table. A ruched or ruffled runner brings dimension as well as texture to a table, while a contrasting solid or flat runner can either help it stand out, or tone it down.
When is comes to creating contrast with a mix-and-match style, the best way to find the right look for your event is to experiment with your options and get creative! So don’t be afraid to come into any of our showrooms to see our entire selection and to try different looks until you find the one you love.
