Sweet dreams are made of this: modern, botanically inspired linens that just might be healthy for you. One of my favorite decor designers Amenity Home has gone completely organic. Nice going!
They also have introduced their once-custom order Muir Bed as a regular offering. Mid-century inspired, it’s made from mostly reclaimed Douglas Fir, finished with [...]

I can hardly contain my excitement that amenity bedding has gone organic.

Currently available in this summery palette of greens and yellows, I’m hoping other colorways will follow so I can pull out the plastic and buy a [...]
