The Basic Formula
How to Determine Your Perfect Table Linen Size
Round
Width + Drop + Drop
Square or Rectangle
(Width + Drop + Drop) x (Length + Drop + Drop)
To easily calculate the linen size you need, add together the table width and the drop you would like to see on each side.
For example, say you want a floor length table linen for a 48" round table that is standard (30") height. You would add 48 + 30 + 30 to determine that you need a 108" round linen.
