Do you believe that our homes have a huge impact on our wellbeing and should make us happy? Well, we do!
From colours and textures to details like lamps, candles, furniture and textiles, all these elements can affect how we feel. If you are inspired by nature and love relaxed and lived-in look, there is no better fabric to decorate your home than linen.
As a part of European heritage, linen has been used at homes and passed from generation to generation for centuries. Linen is not only beautiful and natural but is also one of the most sustainable and durable fabrics known to humankind. On top of this, it actually looks better creased!
Linen made from stems of the flax plant cultivated in Europe is considered the best in the world and has superior quality. It is true though that pure linen comes with a higher price tag than other fabrics and if you wonder why the answer is very simple: it is rare.
Compared to cotton grown all over the world, flax is grown and harvested almost exclusively in Western Europe. The process of making linen is difficult, laborious and costly. Nothing however can match that lovely, laid-back look of linen and its amazing, moisture-absorbing qualities. So linen is more like pure gold or precious gemstones than plastic jewellery from a department store 😊
Here are our favourite ways of layering your home with linen to make it beautiful:
- Use linen cushions and a blanket in your living room. Our cushion covers come in understated natural colours and are easy to mix and match. Linen blankets will bring warmth and comfort, making evenings your favourite time. Linen in your living room adds a cosy and sophisticated look to the rest of the interior.
-
Investing in soft beautiful linen bedding will turn a bedroom into your little sanctuary, a dream place to relax and sleep. Healthy, natural, durable and breathable - all these superpowers of linen can be tested when we sleep. It will keep you cool in summer and warm in winter, some people say it is a life-changing experience!

If you would like to give your bathroom a fresh look, why not treat yourself to the softest gorgeous linen towels. Linen is extremely absorbent, antibacterial and light so linen towels dry very quickly and look so elegant. Not only are they perfect in bathrooms but also are ideal on holidays, in the gym or sauna. Our linen towels come in four natural colours so it is easy to find your favourite set and make your bathroom pretty.

Kitchen linen has been used by generations of housekeepers. It is practical and antibacterial. It keeps bread fresh and makes cooking and cleaning easy and fun. Our linen tea towels & bread bags are durable and linen tablecloths, runners and napkins will add a touch of elegance to any table.
If you would like to find alternatives to cheap, disposable home textiles, look into investing in quality items for your home and choose genuine linen from small independent labels.
As a brand, we are continuously inspired by the beauty of nature and believe that pure linen is a sustainable choice bringing harmony to our life.
