Monograms for the Home - Kimberley Whitman Schlegel - Bog

While monograms have a rich history going all the way back to the sixth century B.C., they are anything but outdated. Luscious photography and Kimberly Whitman's personal, expressive writing, peppered with quotes from style and etiquette experts, shows that monogramming is an in-vogue way to customize every area of the home--the entry, living room, table, kitchen, bedroom and beyond. Whitman also instructs on the etiquette of monogramming for marrieds and singles, for incorporating two or three initials or many more. From vintage and fancy to contemporary and edgy, monograms are suitable to every décor and style. From linens, lamps and chairs to silver, china, crystal, desk accessories, headboards and more, here are exquisite examples of using monograms as a "personal logo" in stylish, elegant ways.
