Velvet Table Runner for Wedding Receptions
I accidentally stumbled upon the velvet table runner, to be totally honest. Here I was, minding my own business, when BAM, I saw a Pinterest photo of a gorgeous table and runner combination. In it, a farmhouse rustic dining table was transformed into a chic dining space complete with emerald green pillar candles, pink pillar candles, pink votive candle holders, and, you guessed it, a pink velvet table runner.
Oh my gosh, it was so gorgeous. So I did some digging, as I tend to do, and found out this velvet table runner (and tablescape design, level: expert) was from Magpie Linens. So I browsed the shop and loved everything I found in all its velvety luxuriousness.
I really love the grey, and I can picture this in my dining room. Who knew grey velvet could look so good? The gray velvet table runner with botanical leaves is an especially beautiful combination.
Then, I fell in awe with the green. (Emerald + Gold = Perfection, am I right?)
And then there is the table runner in burgundy that stole my heart; but seriously, when does burgundy and gold not look stellar?
And last but not least, there’s the navy blue velvet table runner. It is chic, sophisticated, and pairs beautifully, as shown, with silver.
As you can see, picking your favorite velvet table runner may be an impossible choice! At least you know with colors like blush pink, grey, emerald green, burgundy, and navy blue, you really can’t go wrong.
