Did you stay up and watch all of The Oscars last night? If so…you’re probably rubbing your eyes a bit this morning, wishing you could hop back in bed!
Speaking of beds….I have been dreaming, wishing and hoping for some beautiful Leontine Linens of my own for many years. Both of my sons have monogrammed bedding (they could honestly care less) but my own bed lay bare of any letters and my linens have gotten, well…tired.
So, I have finally convinced my husband that this is a good investment! Here is what I was eyeing.
And, here are the 2 monograms that I narrowed it down to. I love them both, so before deciding, I went to my most trustworthy, design savvy source. My 11-year old son.
Which one do you like best?! I promise to share what I selected as soon as the bedding arrives.
Until then….wishing you sweet dreams and a catnap if you stayed up too late!

Elizabeth, you know I LOVE monograms.There is not a bad one in the bunch and Leontine is the master of the monogram universe!! Love both, seriously cannot decide I love them both that much….cannot wait to see, so exciting!
Yes watched the show and all the fun start to finish. Overall really enjoyed it and happy to see the outcome though I was torn between wanting Lincoln to win and SLP. Ditto Bradley vs. Daniel…I was kind of rooting for Bradley then I heard Daniel give his acceptance speech and was moved and in awe of how eloquent he was. So overall a great show! Enjoy your day….
How funny that your boys got their monograms on before you did! We love the Alcott and can't wait to see what you chose. So wish we could crawl back into bed!

While I love both patterns I would have to say that my favorite is Celeste. Either way, you can't go wrong!
Just curious. Which initials will you use? Your own or the combination of yours and your husband's?
I adore Jane and her beautiful linens! Anything from Leontine would be beautiful of course but since the Celeste seems a tad more feminine and distinctive, I think that would expressive your design ethos to a tee!
Shopping Celle –
Good question! I have done linens before where I put my initials on my pillowcases and my husbands on his. I haven't done one which is a combination. For this project, I went ahead and went with my initials, which is historically the tradition. It seems today, you can do it any way that you prefer!
Leontine linens are on my wish list…..both monogram designs are beautiful! that's hard to pick!
What a dream purchase, Elizabeth! i love both, but the Alcott has always been my favorite.
I have a large hand towel, and I can tell you that the quality is there! Look forward to an entire bed dressed in Leontine beauty.
Happy Monday.

Hi Elizabeth – The monograms are absolultely beautiful but from Leontine I would expect nothing less! I like the Celeste. Your bed will be gorgeous!! xoxox
Hi E! I vote for the first one in a diamond pattern 🙂 Gorgeous either way, any way, you can't go wrong!

Oh my word this is gorgeous!! I'm in the process of "adding to" my bedding to make it fresh and this looks like a fabulous choice! Please do share what you end up choosing! It's all gorgeous! I got so tired of my pillows that I just up and sold them so now my bed looks so bare! My husband likes it but it looks bare and lonely to me! I'm so glad I saw this post! Hope you are doing well!
Hi, Elizabeth – I almost made it to the end of the Oscars. Fell asleep around 11:00-ish. I love both designs. They are similar and both very elegant. Can't wait to see!

Oh I can't decide I love them both. My eye keeps going back to th first one though. I'm obsessed with monograms, I'm a true southern girl!! Watched all of the Oscars and have to say seriously disappointed in the show but happy with. Most of the winners.

You always make fab monogram decisions! Love your choices, they are both fabulous and one could not go wrong with either!! The Alcott is timeless and fabulous and the Celeste is quite striking! I am partial to the Celeste as the initials are crisp and clear, no second glances to read them. Looking forward to seeing what you picked!!
Lucky you!! I lost the Leontine "investment" campaign with my husband long ago. Maybe someday. So in the meantime, I will live vicariously through you, and I can't wait to see what you choose!
XOXO,

I can only imagine that sleeping on those sheets will be dreamy. Love both but I think Celeste is very pretty.
Show us please when your bed is all made up!

I love monogrammed bedding. This is a hard call. At first I though #1 but upon further inspection I think I like #2. xo
I have Leontine linens in my bedroom that I love with the first monogram that you show. I put it on the duvet cover and a rectangular pillow, but so wish I had put it on the shams…
I never used to love mongrams but now I think they're so chic!

They are both incredible, just different! I'm a #1 girl, but you can't go wrong either way!!!

Hi Suysel!
