Fiesta decorating usually goes up on walls, which leaves the table plain under the food. This runner covers the middle of it: 13.8 by 73 inches of polyester printed with Mexican floral work in strong color. It fits a dining or kitchen table with four to six places and runs down the length, so plates sit on bare wood either side of it.

Thirteen by Seventy-Three

The measurements decide where this lands. At 73 inches the runner covers the length of a table seating four to six with a short drop at each end, and the 13.8 inch width keeps the place settings clear on both sides. On a longer buffet it works across the middle instead, with serving dishes standing on the printed section.

Folk Floral Pattern

The print borrows from Mexican folk art rather than generic flowers, with layered petals and fine detail worked into the leaves. Color does the rest: reds, pinks and greens that read from the doorway. On a bare wood table the runner supplies most of the decorating by itself, which saves setting out a centerpiece that blocks the food.

Taco Nights All Year

Cinco de Mayo is one evening, and a cloth bought for one evening sits in a drawer. This one carries Taco Tuesday dinners, a Mexican theme birthday and summer gatherings out on the patio. Households that cook the food through the year tend to leave the runner on the table rather than fold it away in the middle of May.

Washes and Comes Back

Polyester is the reason this survives a meal involving salsa. The fabric resists shrinking and fading, so it can be cleaned and used again next spring instead of thrown out after one party. Folded along its length it stores flat in a linen drawer, and the creases drop out again once it has been laid on the table.
