How do you keep a tablecloth from blowing away on a windy day?

Some people use duct tape or wrap bungee cords around the tabletop; then there are clips that secure the tablecloth to the table, but those don’t always fit, and they can break and fall off.

But here’s a Simple Solution that will work on any table and any tablecloth — use tarp clips and small bungee cords to secure the tablecloth under the table.

It works, and the best part is that no one can see the mechanism that secures the tablecloth.

And, no matter how much the wind blows, your tablecloth will stay put!

Tarp clips and bungee cords keep the tablecloth from blowing away.
