Where to get a long table runner?

I'm not into decorating much, but I need to get a 16' or so table runner for a work event.  What stores are likely going to be carrying something like this?  I work in Ann Arbor, so there are a million stores around, I just don't want to have to go into all of them looking for this.  TIA!

  • Pottery Barn usually has some long ones.

  • That seems excessively long. I think you might have a hard time finding one in a brick and mortar store.

  • You could alway find a fabric at jo-ann's and get some of the iron on hem tape instead of sewing it.

    For brick and mortar store I find good variety at HomeGoods/Marshalls you could buy a couple and line them up down the legnth of the table.

  • I highly doubt that you will find a table runner that large at a store.  They usually aren't larger than your standard dining table with the leaves.  You may want to get two 8' runners to decorate with.

    I would go to Jo-Ann.  You will have a very hard time find it at a brick and mortar store. I think most of them are 90", but I could be wrong.

  • Hmm, I'm not motivated enough to make my own.  This was someones else's recommendation anyway.  I think I'm going to just go simpler and do fresh flowers and candles instead.  Thanks!

    This was going to be my suggestion too.
