Every graduation party ends up with a corner where the cards pile up next to the cake. This pairing covers that corner: a table cover for the surface and a box for the envelopes guests arrive holding. Taking both together means the two pieces belong to the same set rather than being assembled from whatever was left in two different aisles.
A box for cards takes the guesswork out of what guests do with the envelope in their hand. Set at the end of the gift table with a pen beside it, it collects everything in one place, so nothing is left propped against a vase or carried around all afternoon. The graduate opens them later, in one sitting, without searching the house for the ones that went astray.
The cover goes over whatever table the party puts in that corner, which is usually a folding one carried out of a garage. It hides scratched laminate and the metal legs beneath, gives the cake and the cards a surface that suits the occasion, and takes the frosting and punch that get spilled where people crowd. Afterwards it comes off with the mess on it.
The gift table is the first thing guests walk to and the last place they stand before leaving, so it is worth setting properly. Cover, box, and room in between for a photograph album or a frame to be signed - that corner does more work at a graduation party than any other part of the room. Setting it takes a few minutes before the first car pulls up.
Both pieces are built around the graduation theme, so they line up with the banner across the wall and the backdrop behind the photographs without a clash of tones. A party that already has a yard sign at the curb and lettering over the doorway gets a matching center to the room, and what sits on the table stops looking like an afterthought.
The coloring banner runs 30 by 72 inches, enough to hold a room of preschool or fifth grade graduates while the adults finish setting up.
The first hour of a new school year is hard to fill; six feet of coloring banner on the front table fills it without a lesson plan.
