A Kmart tablecloth is a decorative and functional fabric cover sold through Kmart Australia, designed to protect and style dining tables for everyday meals, gatherings, celebrations and outdoor occasions. In simple terms, it’s a budget‑friendly table covering that transforms your dining table from plain to polished — shielding the surface from spills, scratches and heat while enhancing your décor. The main reason Australians love Kmart tablecloths is that they offer accessible style and easy refreshes for kitchens, dining rooms, backyard tables and event setups without a big investment.
Here’s why this matters: the dining table is the heart of many homes — from weekday breakfasts to weekend dinners — and a well‑chosen tablecloth sets the tone for both daily life and special occasions.
Kmart’s tablecloth range spans a variety of sizes, shapes, fabrics and prints to suit diverse Australian homes and lifestyles. While stock rotates seasonally, the following types are commonly available:
Soft, easy‑to‑clean and breathable — ideal for everyday dining and light meals.
Waterproof, wipe‑clean and practical — perfect for outdoor dining, BBQs, kids’ tables or messy meals.
Textured tablecloths with a premium feel that mimic linen but are more affordable and often machine washable.
Delicate finishes for afternoon teas, celebrations or more formal dining setups.
Florals, stripes, gingham, geometric prints and seasonal motifs — great for adding personality and fun to tables.
Classic white, cream, grey or beige cloths that pair well with most interior palettes and décor styles.
Options to fit different table geometries — from long dining tables to compact bistro settings.
Tablecloths made with resilient fabrics suitable for terraza or garden tables.
Here’s why variety matters: even within an affordable range, different tablecloth types help Australians match functionality and style to the occasion, season and interior scheme.
Choosing a tablecloth — whether from Kmart or another retailer — goes beyond simply picking a pattern. Here’s how to make a smart selection:
Rectangular/Square: Measure width × length of the tabletop.
Round: Measure the diameter across the tabletop.
Ideal cloth drop on all sides is 20–30 cm for a balanced look.
Everyday eating: Cotton or cotton‑blend for comfort and washability.
Outdoor meals: PVC/vinyl for easy wipe‑down.
Entertaining guests: Linen‑look or embroidered styles for a refined feel.
Neutrals: timeless and versatile.
Bold prints: great for casual or seasonal tables.
Subtle textures: add interest without overwhelming.
Washable fabrics are essential for frequent use; wipe‑clean options suit busy homes or kids’ zones.
Keep at least two sizes/styles on hand for everyday tables and entertaining needs.
Here’s why this matters: a well‑chosen tablecloth not only protects your furniture but elevates the entire dining experience — from daily routines to special memories.
Affordable style: budget‑friendly options for every home.
Functional protection: keeps surfaces safe from spills and marks.
Easy refresh: quick way to update dining aesthetics.
Versatile: suitable for indoor and outdoor settings.
Accessible: widely available in stores and online.
In simple terms, tablecloths marry function and décor, making dining areas more intentional and visually pleasing.
Family dinners: Protects from sauce spills and baking messes.
Weekend brunches: Patterned cloths set a casual, cheerful tone.
Outdoor BBQs: PVC or outdoor cloths handle food, drinks and sunshine.
Holiday gatherings: Themed cloths anchor festive décor.
Kids’ craft or play tables: Helps contain paint, glue and snacks.
Here’s why this matters: a tablecloth supports daily life, not just decorative moments — making it a practical yet stylish staple in Australian homes.
