THIS WILL SAVE YOU MONEY:

Most of us are ruining our sheets and towels.  Our basic instinct is wash them often and use extra detergent and lots of other things we buy because the promise of Fresh, Clean, White and Soft are all irresistable.  We also try and avoid mustiness by over drying.

Natural cotton sheets, linen, bamboo and some blends are all waaaaay easier to care for than that.  So here is the skinny on sheets and towels.

♦ Always read the care instructions – just in case you have bought the rare exception to these rules.

♦ Cold and warm water in the wash cycle.

♦ Cold water in the rinse cycle.

♦ Do a second rinse if you have that option. This gets rid of any excess soap and allergens.  It is excess soap usually that makes, sheets,    towels and clothing feel scratchy.

♦ Use a detergent that does NOT contain a fabric softener or bluing agent.  Fabric softeners are a no no.  They artificially “soften” by breaking down the fibers of the textile – shortening the life of the fabric.  They also coat the fibers which make them less absorbent and after awhile prohibits them from “breathing” which is the purpose of cotton, linen and bamboo.

♦ Use 1/4 to 1/3 the recommended amount of detergent !!!

♦ Do not use Chlorine Bleach. Chlorine bleach has a devastating effect on sheets and towels. You may use a chlorine bleach which is marked as “Safe on Colors”.  You may use SHOUT or Gonzo.

♦ Tumble Dry on the Low setting or Perma Press. Over drying is the leading cause of rough towels and shrinking sheets.

♦ Do not use drier sheets. They have the same effect as fabric softeners and the same chemicals.

♦ Remove sheets and towels immediately from the drier.  Smooth and Fold to avoid ironing. If  linen sheets are very wrinkled, remove before the end of the cycle and let dry on top of a flat surface (like the bed).

♥ Hint:  If you have a monogram, iron it from the reverse side on to a terry cloth so that it stays three dimensional and does not flatten out over time.

♥Hint:  Always store linens in an open and airy place or in tissue – Never in plastic.

♥ Hint: Ladies, some lotions and soaps can act as bleach.  If you are using Retin A, clearasil or any lotion with benzoyl peroxide or alpha hydroxide; you should use only white towels and sheets.

♥Hint:  Sheets that have been put away for the winter can be refreshed with a quick cold rinse with a bit of white vinegar.

♥Hint:  If you suffer from allergies, try Bamboo sheeting  or Purity Organic sheeting   (www.goredean.com).

Iam a Buddhist,” says Cher with characteristic self-deprecation, “who should always be in after-school detention.”

Indeed. And it is precisely that irrepressible mix of spirituality and spunk that makes the singer-actress’s spectacular new duplex, perched high above Los Angeles, as gloriously original as its owner.

“My houses,” she muses, “are passions.” They are also decorative barometers of the current state of her never-boring, ever-expanding consciousness. “I’ve played around with Buddhism for years,” continues the actress, a devotee of the American Buddhist nun Pema Chödrön (“a genius in Sheldon Leonard’s body,” she quips). “As corny as it sounds, the soul of the universe, everything that I need, I can find in its practice.”

So it wasn’t surprising when, snapping up two floors and 4,000 square feet in one of Los Angeles’ hottest buildings, Cher turned to friend and interior designer Martyn Lawrence-Bullard to help her conjure up “something ethnic, spicy and romantic”—albeit in creams, ivories, whites and buttery beiges. “Though I loved collecting Gothic and can spend hours drawing with every shade of Pantone pen, I prefer a neutral palette, especially in my bedrooms, because the colors are so easy to live with.”

ANICHINI and CHER!

Cher, a long time Anichini aficionado, just completed the interior of her new home in West Hollywood. Working with her designer, Martyn Lawrence- Bullard, she chose some of the most rare and beautiful products in our collection. She was drawn to the ethereal muga silk collection; it is found in every room, but dominates the bedroom.  Muga silk has as long and ancient history associated with its natural golden luminescence.

Carrie and Big’s bedroom is a striking blend of pattern and texture. The custom-headboard is covered in fabric by Kravet and pops against the neutral Rococo Stripe wallpaper by by Cole & Son from Lee Jofa. The bedding is from Anichini. All available through GoreDean

Tablecloths today are used as a covering spread over a dining table before the tableware is set.  Tablecloths serve to dress a table, and for protection from scratches. 

Whether you use a tablecloth or a placemat, it is the style and texture that determine its formality.

Tablecloths can be made of cotton, silk, linen and cotton/polyester blends. Cotton, Linen, and Silk tablecloths are machine washable, and require ironing, while cotton/polyester blends are easy-care (machine washable/no iron).  Cotton, Linen, and Silk tablecloths are typically used for more formal settings while cotton/polyester blends are used for casual everyday dining.

Tablecloths Shapes, Which One Is The Right One?

• Round table:        use a round or square tablecloth.
• Round table w/ leaves:        use an oval tablecloth.
• Square table:        use a square tablecloth.
• Square or Rectangular table with leaves:     use an oblong tablecloth
• Oval table:         use an oval or oblong tablecloth.

**When using an oval tablecloth, a template of the table must be followed to assure a proper fit.  You can either have a professional template made OR do what I do…..Lay a newspaper (or brown paper) accross the table until theentire top is covered. Tape the paer together aloung the seams to create one solid piece of paper. Cut along the edge of the table  (it doesn’t have to be perfect). Then roll the paer up end to end and secure with a rubber band or tape.  Sendit to us or bring it in.  We’ll do the rest.

Tablecloth Sizes, What Size Do I Need? 

Your tablecloth should be the proper size for the table on which it will be used. Here is an easy guide for selecting the proper cloth for your table.

• Measure your table as you intend to use it (with our without leaves).
• Add 20 inches (for a 10inch drop) and 30 inches (for a 15inch drop) to both the length and width. This will give you a drop of 15inches (if you added all around.  A 10 to 15 inch drop all round is recommended.

With all your fine linens always read the care instructions prior to laundering.
