Table runner on a kitchen island is a no, yes?

A no, yes.

What about doing placemats

My mom has placemats on the island but she also has stools at the island and they eat breakfast and lunch there most days. I use my island as a food prep area and do not have stools so decorating the island would interfere with food prep.

I have placemats and stools on my island. I like it.

My first thought is no, but if it's an eating area and not a food prep area then maybe.

So, I got a cool Halloween runner but I don't want to put away my cool burlap runner so I thought it could just go on the island. The sole purpose of our kitchen island is to hold our mail pile until we go through it.

I'll just get it back out in November.

if your island is just decorative and not food prep I see no problem with a runner on it
