Dress Up any table with paper placemats! Paper placemats are great for coffee houses, diners, barbecues, casual dining, in home entertaining, holiday parties and so much more. Here are 10 reasons you should consider using paper placemats for all your food serving.

1. Paper placemats give an appearance of cleanliness. Unlike tablecloths you will not have to live with stains. A paper placemat is easily replaced with a fresh clean one.

2.No matter how many times you clean a tablecloth, a stain will always give the illusion of being "dirty". Paper placemats are disposable and replaced with each new person being served food or drink.

3. Paper placemats save time and money on doing laundy.

4. Paper placemats are readily available. If a table cloth gets a spill, a diner is left sitting with a wet tablecloth or the host or food server needs to remake an entire table with another tablecloth, interrupting the meal.

5. Paper placemats look attractive on wooden tables as well as formica tables.

6. Paper placemats can be plain white, or an attractive solid color, or even be a themed design to match a seasonal holiday or occasion.

7. Paper placemats can quickly change the look of the table simply by changing your choice of color and shape placemats.

8. Paper placemats come in many sizes and shapes, from oval to rectangular, to scallop edged and more.

9. Paper placemats can be handmade if you want to make an extra artistic statement. Additionally paper placemats protect a table from newspaper ink, kids crafts, dirty fingerprints and more.

10. Paper placemats create a relaxed atmosphere and they also give a visual clue as to where you should place and organize your plate, bowl, cup, glass, saucer , flatware, etc.

There are many online retailers who sell paper placemats in bulk and quantity discounts. Consider building your paper placemat stash and supply to be ready for any serving occasion.
