Lines We Love: Two Girls in Avignon

We just got in a beautiful line of hand towels and panels, like the one below. The panels are 55" by 87" and can be personalized with a letter on the chair. We just love this line of girly french linens. This panel is sure to make a statement in any room. And the hand towels are sure to be the perfect holiday gift.

Lines We Love: Taylor Linens.

Taylor Linens is one of our staple linen lines here at Lulu. We love their feminine touch to the basic white linen duvet and their special attention to detail that sets their line of linen apart from any other. 

Here is a little message from them, 

Our great uncle, James Taylor, started importing damask linens from Ireland in 1922. Eighty years later, Taylor Linens intertwines the needs of today with the workmanship of yesterday. Special attention is given to the smallest details – the tiny pintucks each taken by hand, the sentimental embroideries, the antique-inspired laces and fine fabrics.We are continuing our family tradition by offering quality products and excellent service.
Our quilts are made of 100% cotton fabric and batting, and are quilted by hand with fine, close stitches. We use imported European dyes for our printed fabrics and the yarns for our wovens are vat dyed. The fabrics are tested for colourfastness to sun and washing in warm water. All our quilts and linens are washed, preshrunk and soft to the touch. Our pillows are filled with white goose feather. Lots of love, untold hours, and skilled hands have created these coveted heirlooms.




With love,

Lulu

PS- We love their pajamas too. They are a staff favorite.

Tricia Robinson

We have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of a beautiful new line of artwork and received the paintings yesterday.  We must say, they are more fabulous than expected (and we knew they were fabulous).  We are extremely excited to be carrying the artwork of Birmingham artist Tricia Robinson.  At the moment, we have four wonderful pieces.  You must come by and see them!  Tricia is an extremely talented mixed media artist who creates fun, wonderful, whimsical art that simply brings joy to anyone who sees it.

Thank you Tricia for sharing your talents with us, and bringing joy to our hearts.
