I've heard the tales of show requiring "fire proof" skirts, but I've never
had a show here in Atlanta make that request. We did the simplest thing we
could think of and just bought some inexpensive bed sheets at Wal-Mart. I
found some nice dark green ones for twin beds (don't get the fitted
sheet..ha!) and then I cut the sheets in half long ways. This way I had a
nice hemmed edge to put along the table edge. Then we used clear push pins
to hold the skirts on.
I think the skirts make the layout look much cleaner, and it gives you a
place to store all your boxes and stuff from the public view.
Here are a few picture of the skirts (granted they're still a little out of
sorts since these pics are during set up)

Hope that helps some,

| (...) thank you! I like the idea of using perma press sheets. The fabric is more tightly woven and has a heavier hand than most yardage of comparable cost. This makes it hang well. I think NCLUG is going to have plexiglass clamped to the front lip (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug)
