Custom Placemats With Your Photo, Name or Design

Custom placemats turn a family photo, a child's name, a pattern or a business logo into something that sits under every plate, and this shelf has three mats for the table.

The one-sided cotton placemat is the full dinner-size mat, printed on the face that sits up and sized to set at every seat. The quilted polyester placemat is a padded, stitched mat with a softer feel under a plate, closer to a table linen. The leather placemat is much smaller, a table mat for under a mug, a vase or a centrepiece rather than a full place setting. Prices run £17.60–£20.66 depending on the mat. Placemats suit a new home, a wedding, a family that wants every name at the table, a child who wants their own seat, or a café that wants its logo at every place. Upload your design or add a note; we set it on the mat and email you a proof, and nothing is printed until you approve it.

Which placemat for which table

For a dining table, the one-sided cotton placemat is the full dinner-size mat, printed on the side that faces up, and the quilted polyester placemat is the padded option with a stitched surface and a softer feel. The leather placemat is a small table mat: think under a coffee mug, a plant or a candle rather than a dinner plate, or a single mat on a sideboard or a desk.

Photos and patterns on a placemat

Every mat here prints in full colour, so a family photo, a wedding picture, a pet, a map of a favourite place or a repeating pattern can fill the face of the mat. The colour bonds into the surface rather than sitting on top of it, and it shows brightest on a light background; the guide to colour bonded into the surface explains why white in a design shows the mat itself.

Setting the whole table

Placemats sit with custom napkins printed with the same names or monogram, and coasters for the glasses. A serving tray carries the food to the table, and kitchen towels with the same pattern finish the kitchen.

Custom Placemats With Your Photo, Name or Design — common questions

Which custom placemat is full dinner size?
The one-sided cotton placemat. It is the dinner-size mat, sized for a full place setting at one seat and printed on the face that sits up. The leather placemat is much smaller and works as a table mat under a mug or a centrepiece rather than under a plate.
How is the quilted placemat different from the cotton placemat?
The quilted polyester placemat is a padded, stitched mat with a softer feel, closer to table linen; the one-sided cotton placemat is the flat dinner-size mat. Both print a photo or a pattern in full colour, so the choice is about the feel of the mat on the table.
What is the leather placemat used for?
It is a small mat for under a coffee mug, a vase, a plant or a candle, on a dining table, a sideboard or a desk. Print a name, a monogram or a small photo on it as a gift that works on its own or alongside the larger placemats.
Can each placemat in a set carry a different name?
Yes. Personalize each placemat on its own so every seat gets its own name or photo, then check each proof before you approve it. For a child, a name beside a favourite animal or one of their own drawings makes their seat easy to spot.
Will a dark photo work on a placemat?
It prints, but a light photo looks better. The colour on these mats is bonded into a light surface and cannot lighten it, so a dark, shadowy picture stays dark on the mat. Pick a photo taken in good light, or brighten it before you upload, and check the proof.
