If you would like to only have the linens come down 12" or 1/2 way down, take the diameter of your round table add 12" twice for a 12" drop or add 15" twice for a 15" drop. Example, to have a 15" drop on a 60" round table, 60+15+15 = 90 Round tablecloth. Need more help? Use our reliable tablecloth calculator or give us a call.
