I love tablerunners. I use quite a few of them on the wall as well as they work great for those skinny walls such as between a window & a fireplace. We have a large entertainment center with a big screen tv sitting in between the 2 sections with a bridge holding the 2 sections together. My dh came up with a great idea this yr for Christmas. We put one of them up on the wall in the area created by the 2 sides of the entertainment center, the tv & the bridge (picture a big square of wall). Then we put up Christmas knickknacks on top of the tv and it really turned out nice. It looks so good it is still hanging there as the fabrics don't look just like Christmas fabrics. I wish there was a way I could post a pic to show you all what I'm talking about!
