'This was a gift to myself': Woman lets her kids spill paint on her sister-in-law's expensive fabric, replaces it with cheap cloth as an apology

This SIL went out of her way to use the wrong "tablecloth." Now that she's faced with the consequences, she's not happy about it.

Hosting a Thanksgiving meal involves a lot of preparation, from shopping for food to cleaning up your home for guests who are staying over. This person, u/fabricadabric, was hosting the Thanksgiving meal, and her SIL and her three kids were also staying over. With that many kids, there are bound to be some messes. But when the OP went shopping for last-minute items, I'm sure they didn't expect the SIL's kids to ruin one of their prized possessions. 

It seems like the OP and their SIL might never get along: the OP writes that their SIL already treats them with disdain since they 'prefer pets over kids.' That makes it even more suspicious that the SIL let her kids ruin something the OP holds near and dear. Maybe it was a form of sabotage. 

Check out the entire tale below, as well as the opinions of commenters who wanted to weigh in about what the OP should do next. Then, this team of engineers needed an important piece of expensive equipment, and when their company wouldn't listen to them, the company ended up paying thousands more dollars than they needed to.
