Dining Placemats FAQs
A gorgeous wooden table is the pride of a dining room (and tends to be pretty expensive.) So, the absolute last thing you want is to damage it with hot plates and bowls.
Our dining placemats add a protective layer between your steaming bowl of soup and your table, saving it from unsightly marks and heat damage.
Linen placemats are perfect for protecting your table from stains and food mess, but that does mean they might pick up a few marks themselves. The good news? They’re super easy to clean.
Just put them on a permanent press cycle with cold water and gentle detergent, and they’ll be as good as new.
For more cleaning advice, including tips on doing battle with difficult stains, see our tablecloth cleaning guide.
Iron your linen placemats while they’re still slightly damp for the best results. Start by ironing the underside first, and if you’re working with lighter-coloured placemats, flip them over and give the front a quick press, too, for a crisp, flawless finish.
If you have any lovely monogramming or embroidery on your placemat, this should be ironed face down on a towel to protect the detailing.
Following these simple care tips, you can keep your placemats looking fresh and elegant for every meal.
