What legnth table runner should I put on my 60 inch long kitchen table?

Question

Would 72 inches look to short or would 90 inches look too long?

Answer 1

70" that is the size they have at bed bath and beyond!!

Answer 2

I would use a 72".  That will give you a 6" drop on each end.  If you go with a 90", that will give you a 15" drop on each end, which may be a little too long.

Answer 3

90 inches, because in relation to the length of the table, 15" on either side doesnt seem long beause your table ( if its regular height) sits 3 to 4 feet off the ground. that means there is going to be a foot and a half to two and a half feet of space between the bottom of your overhanging runner and the floor.
