monogrammed linensby brett |
I’ve been doing a lot of antique hunting lately, and have fallen hard for antique embroidered table linens. There’s something about a stately monogram that elevates an already stylishly-set dining table to epic levels of elegance.
That’s why I decided it was time to splurge for my very own, old-school, hotel chic, crisp white monogrammed napkins. But where to find them?
Monogrammes, in the historic downtown of Port Hope, Ont., is renowned for custom monogramming (even home retail giants like Elte and Ginger’s Bath employ their services for custom embroidery), stitching lovely letters onto everything from table linens to cushions to handbags.
Above, you’ll see some of the samples they prepared for me in my hunt for the perfect monogrammed napkins… I’m so cited! Such an amazing assortment of styles… Which one do you think should I choose? I think I’ve made up my mind, but want to hear your thoughts first…
Embroidered hotel napkins, $36 per set of four (What a steal!!!)
Monogrammes, 14 Ontario St., Port Hope, Ont.; 866-239-9967

I like the first one. It looks the most professional!!
Number three gets my vote, in black on white - it’s classic, masculine; it has presence.
I didn’t know you were a junior! Assuming that’s what the J is for. I like #1.
Number 1 gets my vote. Tradition!, to quote Tevye.
…And #1 is the winner with an overwhelming majority! (It was the one I was leaning towards - thanks for reinforcing my gut instinct!)
Thanks so much for your input, everyone!
And the “J” actually isn’t for “Junior”, Carla, although my dad will get a kick out of that! lol
