Now that Thanksgiving, my very favorite holiday, is over, we are really focusing on Christmas. Of course, we began planning for Christmas last summer!
Every year we find a new bedding pattern that lends itself to a special theme for our Christmas window. Last year, it was a red and white Provencal pattern and our window looked like a French country home. The year before, we featured the Yves Delorme “Hera” peacock feather pattern for an eclectic Bohemian Rhapsody theme.
This year we didn’t see any new patterns that sparked a creative vision, but the idea of a classic “White Christmas” kept coming up. After all, no matter what colors or patterns we show, white and ivory are always the best sellers. Continue reading ‘I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas’
The thing about table linens is that they are meant to be used and when they are in use, they come into contact with all kinds of lovely gooey things and things that leave stains.
I know a hostess who will only allow white wine to be served at her parties, in the hopes of avoiding red stains on her table linens and white carpets. Continue reading ‘Out Damned Spot!! Part Two’

The first-ever ELLE DECOR Showhouse—a spectacularly renovated 4,500-square-foot home in the historic St. Francis neighborhood, created in partnership with the Junior League of San Francisco, opened last weekend and runs through November 21. Tickets are available at www.jlsf.org.
Scheuer Linens was thrilled to do the bed linens for the guest bedroom for Tucker and Marks, a San Francisco–based interior design firm founded by Suzanne Tucker and Timothy F. Marks in 1986. The Renaissance embroidery pattern was done in green and yellow on ivory percale by Hamburg House. Matouk’s Dakota diamond pique scalloped coverlet in ecru was selected for the top of the bed.
Suzanne’s first book, Rooms to Remember: The Classic Interiors of Suzanne Tucker, was published in 2009, and in January, she launched her textile line, Suzanne Tucker Home, in Paris. Her work has been featured in ELLE DECOR, House Beautiful, Town & Country, and numerous books. She has been featured in Architectural Digest’s “AD 100.”

Giants World Series fever has hit San Francisco and we baseball fans at Scheuer Linens are truly excited. So excited that we just had to do something in our front window to help celebrate, so we took a small corner and did a Giants display. We wanted to include at least one or two products in the display that we actually sell and used towels with the Giants colors of orange and black.
The other item is a stuffed toy panda from our children’s section. In case you don’t know, third baseman Pablo Sandoval is lovingly nicknamed the Panda because of his round build. We knew it might happen and it did — people have already come in and wanted to buy one of the pennants hanging on the wall, but those are not for sale at our store.
Some of us will be wearing Giants t-shirts when the World Series starts in San Francisco this Wednesday, the first time in 40 years that I have worn a t-shirt to work. Go Giants!
