We believe the bedroom is the most important room in the house. If you are looking to update or create a brand new space in the children's room, the nursery, the main bedroom or guest room, we now offer design and custom sewing services for this room. We will remake your bedding as an update, or create a whole new decor. We can also discuss color, furniture, floor coverings and other coordinating textiles. The makeover includes a set of linen sheets and a custom top-of-bed ensemble using MP fabrics. This includes a duvet cover or coverlet, four shams, and one or two accent pillows for one King or Queen size bed or two twin beds. If you are desiring other items such as bed skirt, lounge pillows or coordinating window treatments, those will be an added charge. Along with the new bedding, we will provide recommendations and sourcing on coordinating interiors: wall color, floor coverings, window treatments, furniture, and lighting.
Once this service is purchased, we will reach out via email and get started with the process which will be conducted via Zoom. We will ask for images and dimensions of your current bed, and your desires for new bedding and room textiles. We will then design the bedding and provide you with a sketch and swatches of the proposed work. Two revisions are also included. Your bedding and other textiles will be ready for you to unbox in 6-8 weeks.
Modernplum's use of linen, both as fabrics and goods is rooted in a philosophy of responsibility. We believe that as an importer and manufacturer, our main responsibility is the protection of human and nature's resources. This is a complicated endeavor, and there are many ways to approach these conservation efforts. Here is what we do and why we do it:
- Linen is made from the flax plant, which naturally creates a durable fabric that lasts longer, is biodegradable, and renewable.
- Flax is farm grown. The flax plant is naturally insect repellent so it requires less fertilizer and water to grow than other natural fabrics (including cotton).
- Made to Order manufacturing allows us to only sew when goods are sold. This cuts down on unsold inventory and the use of materials and labor that is not necessary.
- Zero waste manufacturing is our internal procedure of saving and reusing all our fabric scraps, saving them from the land fill. Most of our scraps are used for swatches.
- Local sewing in Chicago allows us to enhance the local economy and produce simply, where we know our sewers and can monitor quality and customizations more effectively.
This product is made from 100% Linen which we import, primarily from the Czech Republic and Korea.
To care for our linen items, machine wash and dry or spot clean. Iron for a formal look, or linen can be washed and used without ironing for a casual organic look. It is entirely personal preference.
