What shape of placemat should go on a round table?
For a round table, I prefer a round placemat. I have owned both rectangular and round kitchen tables and I have always used placemats on them. They are just easier to keep clean than a tablecloth. Although I have to admit, that I mostly use the placemats that I buy more for decoration than practicality! I really like these: http://www.pacificmerchants.com/table-placemats/table-placemats-round.html
How do you get wrinkles out of a plastic tablecloth after washing?

What type of tablecloth you can use?
I love to use tablecloths that are easy to clean! When I purchase a new tablecloth, I wash it before I use it. You want to choose a tablecloth that has a cotton blend. If you purchase one that is linen, or rayon, you will have to dry clean it. I love to use a table runner in place of a table cloth. It is less expensive, and usually has fewer stains to clean after the party.

How to Use a Tablecloth?
There are a variety of tablecloth sizes depending on the usage. A tablecloth can be used for a formal occasion or a picnic. Buying the correct size and style depends on the occasion it is being used. One of the more attractive types of tablecloths are those used for formal occasions. In fact, two are used; a vinyl tablecloth on the bottom and the fancy lace tablecloth on top. Generally, this type of tablecloth usage is when the table is made of wood. The plastic tablecloths placed directly on top of the wood, protects it from drinks that might spill. Tablecloths can be bought at most department stores, or at a dollar store. Paper tablecloths are used on top of a wooden outdoor table generally found outdoors and used for picnics or children’s birthday parties. 1. Buy the type of tablecloth required for the occasion. Some tablecloths are made out of paper. There are usually matching paper napkins that can be bought at the same time. Some of the paper tablecloths might also have matching paper plates and paper cups. These are great for the outdoor usage. 2. Look for the tablecloths that are vinyl. The bottom is made out of a soft fuzzy material so it does not mar the top of the table. The exterior is washable and can be reused dozens of times. Make sure that it dries completely after being washed before folding it for storing. The plastic on top can easily crack when it dries. 3. Make sure to use the correct width and length of a formal tablecloth. Measure the table top before buying it. If you have a table that extends in length, open the entire table and measure the width and the length tablecloth needed. 4. Make sure that you do not spill drinks on the formal tablecloth especially if it is white. Many will stain if grape-juice or wine drip on it. Read the cleaning instructions when you buy the formal tablecloth and find out how to remove a stain if it does occur. Buy a cheap plastic tablecloth to use on the grass when going on a picnic in the park. Toss it on a level spot and place the food bowls on top. If one is not enough, use two. Buy a picnic tablecloth in various colors and enjoy a fun picnic with the kids or friends.

What is the difference between an oval and oblong table cloth?
The basic difference between oblong and oval is the shape at the short end. i.e. An oval is rounded at the short end and straight in the middle. To draw them it can be represented as [] =oblong (rectangular) & 0 =oval A true oval tapers to the ends, while an oblong shape has parallel sides (an oblong is an extended square or circle). So if your intent is to put a tablecloth on a round table after adding leaves, an oblong tablecloth would be best. An oval tablecloth of the right length might not be wide enough at some points, and the problem gets worse as you add more leaves. That said, the tablecloth sellers I looked at online all make their "oblong" tablecloths as rectangles, not elongated circles. If you want an elongated circle, to provide even overhangs on a circle with leaves, use a custom tablecloth site. Here is a table linens size chart that may be of some help. http://www.TableclothsForLess.com/tablecloth-sizes.html
Is cleaning a greasy mark from a plastic tablecloth with washing up liquid a chemical change?
No. You're not changing the chemical makeup of anything involved -- soap, tablecloth, or grease. The soap emulsifies the grease so that it can be dissolved in the water contained in the cloth you use to wipe it up.
