Welcoming Pom Pom at Home to Linenplace

We are incredibly please to be offering the gorgeous and casually-chic Pom Pom at Home bedding and bath line!

Logo_big

Here’s a little about them:
“As natives of Belgium, we naturally have a passion for everything “linen,” resulting in a crib and adult bedding line made of 100% linen. Our lines are versatile; with delicate embroidery, crushed velvet and hand-crocheted lace on the finest and softest linen. Pom Pom at Home embodies a “lived in” elegant look that is still relaxed and casual. This is the main inspiration to this unique collection which transforms everyday experiences into a sheer delight. We have also recognized that we live in a time where we are globally conscious of how our daily actions affect our environment. What better way to start and end your day than by having our linens as a reminder of how you did your part. Our 100% certified organic linens are made from the purest of flax fibers. The combination of luxury and environmental sustainability has never been so comfortable. Pom Pom at Home embraces the essence of life’s enjoyment. Its products evoke a sense of romantic glamour, peaceful memories, gentleness and freshness. Whether it is Pom Pom at Home’s fine linens, accessories or fragrances, all are made with the highest quality and attention to detail, always with a passion for beauty! Our vision is that each of our products will fill you with delight and bring you that little touch of luxury that makes life more pleasurable.”

Here at Linenplace, we’re crazy about 100% linen, so we couldn’t be more happy about offering their linen sheets, duvet covers, bedskirts. We also offer Pom Pom’s comfy wool blend  throw blankets and decorative shams! Their cotton shower curtains will add just the right amount of feminine elegance to your bathroom (but not too much that your husband or boyfriend will protest, LOL!)

Spring Break Time: Beach Towels!

Just in time for spring break and with summer right around the corner, we’ve added some beautiful beach towels made in Turkey by Chortex!  These towels are 100% cotton in a generous 40 by 70 inch size.  The designs are not printed onto the towel, but are part of the weave (this is what is referred to as a yarn dyed design vs. printed).  The weight of the towels is 450 grams per square meter (GSM), which is good for a beach towel.  Beach towels are often made very cheaply with 200 GSM weight.  The quality is definitely what you’d expect from a top towel maker like Chortex!

My favorites are the Moroccan Tile and the Conch Shells.

Jazz up your Bathroom Decor with Textured Towels

If you have a fairly plain bathroom, like all white…  it’s fun to make things more interesting with textured towels!

For a classic, conservative look, these sculptured damask towels are an excellent choice.

This 100% cotton robe is made with plush terry cloth for optimal softness.

Adirondack Chic Wood Grain Bedding and Towels

I personally love the look of rich wood grains (hardwood floors, furniture, cutting boards… etc.) they add warmth and character to a room.  Well, who’d have guessed you can have wood grain bed and bath linens as well!

Inhabit’s Madera sheets feature a wood grain look on a crisp white background.  They’re also super comfy – - made with 400 thread count organic cotton sateen!

We also love these Organic Woodgrain Towels from West Elm… faux bois for the bath. The textural tree-ring pattern of the Organic Woodgrain Towel brings the outdoors in in the subtlest way.

Bonus, because these styles are fairly subtle they will mix well with virtually any decor!
