There is a quiet moment right before everyone sits down, when you look at the table and it all feels ready. The plates are out, the candles are lit, and the cloth falls just right on every side. That moment is why Tabletops by Nomi exists. Every table tells a story, from a Tuesday dinner with family to a holiday feast with friends, and we want yours to feel cared for down to the last inch of fabric.
So whether you have just found us or you have ordered from Nomi before, welcome. We are so glad you are here. Pull up a chair and let us show you around our new home.
Key Takeaways:
- Every Tabletops by Nomi tablecloth is cut by hand to your table's exact shape and size. Nothing is one size fits all.
- Our fabric has the drape and texture of linen but goes in the washer and dryer.
- Each piece is made to order in 2–3 weeks, and Nomi personally oversees every custom cut.
- The new site changes how you order, not how we make. Past customers get the same quality and attention to detail as always.
Who is Nomi, and why custom tablecloths?#
Tabletops by Nomi started with a simple frustration: it is surprisingly hard to find a tablecloth that actually fits. Store-bought cloths come in a handful of standard sizes, so most tables end up with fabric that puddles at one end, hangs short at the other, or sits crooked no matter how many times you straighten it.
Nomi spent years in textile design before she started cutting tablecloths for real tables in a small home studio. That background shows in the details she cares about: how a pattern sits on the tabletop, where a border lands, and how the drop falls evenly on every side. Every order that comes in still goes through her hands.
Why a tablecloth cut to your table looks different#
A made-to-measure tablecloth drapes evenly because it was cut for one table only. You give us your table's shape and measurements, and the cloth is cut by hand to those numbers, so the overhang is the same on every side and the corners fall the way they should.
That is what makes each piece one of a kind. Your tablecloth is not pulled from a shelf of standard sizes. It is made for your dining table, your oval, your round, or that extra-long table that only comes out for the holidays. And because nothing is cut until you order, there is no pile of unsold stock and no wasted fabric.
What you'll find in the collection#
The collection is built around tablecloths, with napkins, placemats and napkin rings to finish the table. Each pattern is chosen to look beautiful in person and in photographs, from quiet tonal weaves to bold statement prints.
A few places to start:
- For a soft, elegant gold table: our Golden Swirl jacquard tablecloth pairs white with sweeping gold brushstrokes and a wide ivory border mitered at the corners. Matching napkins and placemats are available too.
- For a fresh botanical look: the Laurel Vine tablecloth in sage and cream is a quiet pattern that flatters white china and clear glass.
- For something you can flip: the Shadow Leaf silver and white jacquard has a soft sheen and can be made reversible.
- For a spring brunch or garden party: the Wildflower Meadow watercolor tablecloth is printed edge to edge in greens, corals and blues.
You can browse everything on the full product page or by category in our collections. The photo at the top of this post shows how the smaller pieces come together: a blush napkin gathered with a gold rhinestone napkin ring, a sage placemat and a matching blush coaster, all from Nomi.
A fabric made for real dinners#
Our fabric looks and feels like linen, but it is machine washable and dryer friendly. We chose it so a beautiful table never has to mean dry-cleaning bills or a weekend of ironing.
Care is simple. Wash on a gentle cycle in cold or warm water with a mild detergent, then tumble dry on low and take it out promptly. The fabric resists wrinkles, so ironing is optional. Just skip bleach and dry cleaning.
Care tip: Spilled wine or coffee? Blot right away, rinse with cold water, add a little dish soap, then launder as usual. Our care guide covers grease, candle wax and more.
To our returning customers: the craft hasn't changed#
If you have a Tabletops by Nomi tablecloth on your table today, the one you order next will be made exactly the same way. The new website changes how you browse and order. It does not change who cuts your fabric, how carefully it is measured, or the standard every piece has to meet before it ships.
The patterns you already love are here, the fabric is the same, and Nomi still personally oversees each custom cut. The quality and attention to detail you have come to expect from us are not going anywhere.
How ordering works on the new site#
Ordering takes a couple of minutes: choose your table's shape, enter its size, and see which fabrics are available for it. The home page starts with exactly that. Pick rectangle, oval, round or square, type in your length and width in inches, and browse the fabrics in your size.
Not sure about your measurements, or which drop length to choose? Use Ask Nomi on the home page or contact us and we'll help you get it right before anything is cut. Production takes 2–3 weeks, and once your order ships, you'll get a tracking number by email.
Pro tip: Measure the tabletop itself, not an old tablecloth. Old cloths shrink and stretch, and a custom cut is only as accurate as the numbers it starts from.
