Tired of tablecloth sliding across table? Clever trick used in cafes

A tablecloth that is constantly slipping off the dining table is a problem for many neat housewives.

Besides the fact that this is inconvenient, it is also unsafe: along with the tablecloth, the dishes and delicious dishes placed there may fall off the table.

Have you ever noticed that in cafes and restaurants this kind of unpleasantness is almost never encountered, even though they use the same tables and tablecloths.

It turns out that regular cling film can help eliminate this problem.

First, wipe down the countertop to remove any crumbs.

Be sure to wait until the surface is dry, and then wrap the table with cling film around the perimeter.

Then spread the film in the center of the table. The main thing here is not to overdo it with the "backing" so that it does not show through the tablecloth.

After this, you can safely cover the table with a tablecloth: the fabric will “stick” from contact with the cling film and will not slide.
