The sports-themed, modular table covering is a modular textile that is configured for use with a table. The sports-themed, modular table covering is used as a table cloth. The sports-themed, modular table covering displays a carpet image with a sporting motif. The carpet image is formed as a loop surface that is compatible with hook and loop fastening technology. The loop surface receives an individual interchangeable image selected from a plurality of interchangeable images. Each selected individual interchangeable image is removably attached to the loop surface using a hook and loop fastening technology. Each selected individual interchangeable image is a logo associated with the selected sports motif of the carpet image. The sports-themed, modular table covering comprises an artificial turf carpet and a plurality of interchangeable images. In a second potential embodiment of the disclosure, the sports-themed, modular table covering further comprises a drape.

A table cover. The table cover includes a flexible base having a perimeter edge that can secure to a table such that an entirety of an upper surface of the table is covered by the base. A pair of panels are pivotally affixed to opposing ends of the base, wherein the pair of panels include a plurality of pockets on an exterior surface of the panel. At least one of the panels includes a thermally insulated lining therein.

An overlay system for a table having a center area includes a plurality of elongated arms each having a distal end and a proximal end. A connector is fixed proximate the proximal end of each arm and adapted to connect to the connector of an adjacent arm. With the arms each mutually connected at their proximal ends, and the proximal ends positions proximate the center area of the table, a regular geometric shape is formed in the center area of the table and the arms extend mutually equidistantly about the table to define a seating area for a place setting and a guest. Some embodiments of the invention include a central section that has a plurality of the connectors to which the arms are connected. Alternately, the arms may be integrally formed with the central section such that the overlay system is effectively a single piece of flexible material.

A table-top fort for use in conjunction with a table having a top surface that is supported above a ground surface. The table-top fort includes a top panel and a side panel. The top panel has an edge that extends substantially around the top panel. The top panel has a size and a shape that are substantially the same size and a shape of the top surface. The side panel engages the top panel and extends at least partially around the edge. The side panel has a lower edge, at least one opening formed therein and at least one partially transparent region formed therein. The opening is movable between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The table-top fort is placed over the table so that the top panel is above the top surface to form a substantially enclosed region beneath the table. The side panel other than the at least one partially transparent region is substantially non-transparent that is printed on the side panel. The non-transparent and at least partially transparent areas of the side panel are fabricated from the same material.

A visually-distinguishable paneled skirt is an apparatus that conceals undesirable objects, items, or surfaces such as a Christmas tree stand. The apparatus includes a plurality of panels and a plurality of fasteners. Each of the plurality of panels is connected to one another by the plurality of fasteners. This allows the user to interchange the plurality of panels as to best represent the current members of his or her family. Each of the plurality of panels is arranged with one another into an annular configuration. An opening allows the trunk of a Christmas tree to traverse through the apparatus. The apparatus may be converted into a tablecloth with a covering panel, which covers the opening. The circumference of the apparatus may be extended with an annular panel.

A system for reversibly attaching a flexible substrate (e.g., a fabric panel) to another surface comprises one or more magnetic elements and one or more magnetically responsive elements. The magnetic elements and magnetically responsive elements are disposed on the flexible substrate and the surface so that they engage and produce a reversible attachment of the flexible substrate and the surface.
