If you are thinking about some special linens but need some design advice, we can help. This is a 45-minute design conversation that will work through questions about style, color, trims, and edging colors of our bedding, table linen, and lounge collections. We can also discuss and suggest how your textiles can compliment your current living decor. With an in-person option, you can see and try our whole fabric line within the context of your existing home decor. We will give your our best design options according to your goals. If you do move forward with an order, our fee is complimentary.

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.
