Creating Elegant Table Settings with Blue and White Linens

Skye was inspired by our summer holiday to this magical Scottish island, where land, sea and sky seem to merge. Skye is available in Majorelle blue, pictured, as well as olive green and red.

An elegant table setting in blue and white can elevate any dining experience, making it perfect for both casual gatherings and formal occasions. The Skye Table Linen Collection, available in shades of blue, is a standout option for those looking to incorporate this classic colour scheme into their dining decor. The collection’s clean lines and high-quality linen bring a touch of coastal charm that complements a wide range of table settings.

To complete the look, pair the Skye linens with the Anthurium Napkin Set. These napkins, adorned with subtle hemstitching, add a layer of sophistication without overwhelming the overall aesthetic. Here are a few tips for arranging your table settings with these linens:

  • Layering Textures: Start with a neutral tablecloth as your base, then layer with Skye placemats or a runner to introduce blue accents. This approach creates depth and contrast, making the table visually appealing.
  • Coordinating Napkins: Neatly fold the Anthurium Napkins and place them on each plate or to the side with a simple napkin ring. The fine hemstitching detail enhances the table setting’s elegance.
  • Mixing and Matching: Don’t hesitate to mix patterns within the blue and white palette. Combine the Skye linens with plain white dinnerware and add blue-patterned glassware for a cohesive yet dynamic look.
  • Adding Natural Elements: Introduce fresh flowers or greenery to soften the table setting. White blooms like hydrangeas complement the blue linens beautifully, adding a touch of nature to your table.

With these tips, you can create a table setting that exudes timeless elegance, perfect for any occasion. The classic blue and white palette ensures that your table remains stylish and inviting throughout the year.

The Skye table linen uses handmade borders to give a sumptuous and chic finish to this table linen. It is made with the company’s linen gaberdine fabric – a heavyweight blend of cotton and linen – and a luxurious fabric that drapes and folds beautifully, with the appliqué detailing accented by the contrasting border colours. The table linen design is available in three colours – striking Majorelle blue, shown here, olive green and bold ‘post box’ red – and runners of various sizes, with matching sets of generously proportioned napkins.

Transforming Your Bedroom with Blue and White Luxury Linens

Transform your bedroom into a serene retreat by incorporating the Majorelle Bed Linen Set from Reed Family Linen. Inspired by the vibrant blues of the Majorelle Garden in Morocco, this set brings a touch of exotic luxury while maintaining a calm and soothing ambience. The deep blue accents against a crisp white base create a stunning visual contrast that adds character to your bedroom.

To make the most of this colour scheme, consider the following ideas:

  • Layering for Depth and Texture: Use the Majorelle Bed Linen Set as your foundation and layer with different textures and shades of blue and white. A deep blue quilt or throw at the foot of the bed, paired with white or light blue accent pillows, adds dimension and interest.
  • Coordinating with Wall Colours: If your walls are neutral, such as soft grey or beige, the Majorelle Bed Linen Set can serve as the room’s focal point. For a bolder look, paint one accent wall in a complementary deep blue.
  • Adding Blue and White Accents: Extend the blue and white theme with accessories like blue and white ceramic lamps, patterned rugs, or artwork. These elements help tie the room together, creating a cohesive and stylish space.
  • Balancing with Neutrals: Balance the boldness of blue and white linens with neutral tones in your furniture and decor. A neutral headboard, wooden bedside tables, and understated curtains allow the linens to shine without overwhelming the room.

By incorporating the Majorelle Bed Linen Set, you can create a bedroom that is both elegant and relaxing, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Enhancing Living Spaces with Blue and White Accents

Blue and white accents can bring a fresh and cohesive look to your living spaces. Decorative cushions and throws in these colours can effortlessly tie together various elements of your decor, creating a harmonious and inviting atmosphere.

Decorative Cushions: Cushions are a versatile accessory that can instantly transform the look and feel of a space. Opt for cushions in different shades of blue, from deep navy to soft sky blue, paired with crisp white or off-white tones. Mixing solid colours with subtle patterns, such as stripes or geometric designs, adds visual interest without overwhelming the room.

Throws: Throws add both colour and texture, making your living space feel more inviting. A soft blue throw draped over a neutral-toned sofa introduces a pop of colour, while a patterned throw can add a bold statement.

Tying Together the Decor: Blue and white cushions and throws can seamlessly blend with various styles, from modern minimalism to coastal chic. Pair these accessories with natural materials like wicker or light wood for a coastal vibe, or with sleek metallics for a more contemporary look.

By incorporating these accents, you can create a living space that feels both stylish and comfortable, with blue and white serving as the perfect foundation.

Practical Yet Stylish: Blue and White Kitchen Linens

Incorporating blue and white linens into your kitchen adds a touch of timeless elegance while enhancing practicality. The Cotton Twill Herringbone Serving Towels are an excellent example of how functional items can also be stylish.

The story of Majorelle blue, this striking hue is one of our most vibrant and beloved linen shades – and its Moroccan origins are just as captivating as its colour.

As you meander through the labyrinthine alleyways of the Jardin Majorelle in Marrakesh, the thread connecting each of the garden’s enchanting spaces is an intense, fresh blue paint colour, quite unlike any other. Adorning walls, water fountains and walkways, pools and plant pots, this radiant and unique blue hue is known as ‘Majorelle Blue’, a fitting homage to the artist who created it, and these gardens, Jacques Majorelle.

Mixing and Matching Patterns for a Cohesive Look

Mixing and matching patterns within a blue-and-white colour scheme can add personality and depth to your decor. The key is to balance different patterns, scales, and textures to create a harmonious space.

Start with a Solid Foundation: Choose a solid-coloured item as your foundation, such as a tablecloth or duvet cover in navy blue or white. This provides a calming backdrop for more complex patterns.

Vary the Scale of Patterns: Combine large-scale patterns, such as florals or wide stripes, with smaller, more intricate designs like pinstripes or herringbone. This contrast in scale creates visual interest while maintaining balance.

Stick to a Consistent Colour Palette: Keep the colour palette consistent by using different shades of blue and white. This uniformity ties the patterns together, making the design feel cohesive.

Introduce Texture for Added Depth: Incorporate textures like linen, cotton, or embroidery to enhance the layering effect when mixing patterns. Textured items add a tactile quality that complements the visual patterns.

Balance Bold and Subtle Patterns: If using a bold pattern, balance it with a more subtle design elsewhere. For instance, a bold floral tablecloth can be paired with simple striped napkins to avoid a busy look.

By following these tips, you can confidently mix and match patterns within the blue and white palette, creating a cohesive and visually appealing space.

These magnificent Moroccan gardens were first conceived by Jacques Majorelle in the 1920s, and its boldly-coloured buildings blend Art Deco and Moorish influences, which feel as fresh today as 100 years ago. As the REED collections show, the gardens continue to inspire designers across the world, and Majorelle blue can be found throughout our brand’s bed linen and table linen designs.

The Role of Texture in Blue and White Decor

Texture plays a crucial role in elevating the aesthetics of blue and white decor. While the colours provide a timeless foundation, introducing varied textures adds depth, warmth, and interest to the space.

Enhancing Visual Depth with Texture: Different textures catch the light differently, adding layers of depth to a room. For instance, the smooth surface of satin contrasts beautifully with the tactile feel of linen, allowing each material to stand out while contributing to a harmonious whole.

Creating a Sensory Experience: Texture isn’t just about visual appeal; it also enhances the tactile experience. A soft cotton twill is inviting to the touch and perfect for items like napkins or bed linens, where comfort is key.

Balancing Bold Colours with Subtle Textures: In a blue and white scheme, textures can balance the intensity of bold colours. A richly textured linen in a deep blue hue can soften the colour’s impact, making it more approachable.

Mixing Textures for a Layered Look: Combining different textures within the same colour palette creates a dynamic and visually interesting space. For example, pairing a rustic linen with sleek cotton adds complexity to the decor.

By carefully selecting and combining different textures, you can create a decor scheme that feels rich, layered, and inviting. Reed Family Linen’s range of textured products offers the perfect tools to bring depth and sophistication to your blue and white interiors.

Final Touches: Accessories and Embellishments

The final touches are what bring your blue and white decor to life. Accessories and embellishments, such as candles, vases, and tableware, add personality and flair, completing the look of your space.

Candles: Add warmth and ambience with candles in shades of white or soft blue. Candles with subtle textures, such as ribbed surfaces, can complement your linens and add depth to the overall look.

Vases: Use vases in white porcelain or deep blue glass to display fresh flowers or greenery. These natural elements soften the formality of the blue-and-white scheme.

Tableware: Coordinate your tableware with your linens. White plates with a blue rim or blue glassware can tie the table setting together, enhancing the cohesive look.

Decorative Trays and Bowls: These can be used to organise small items or serve as decor pieces on a coffee table or console. A blue and white tray with a geometric pattern can anchor a collection of candles or books.

Throw Pillows and Cushions: In living rooms, blue and white throw pillows and cushions add softness and comfort while tying the room’s colour palette together.

Wall Art and Mirrors: Choose artwork featuring shades of blue and white, or incorporate mirrors with blue-tinted frames to reflect and enhance the theme.

By thoughtfully selecting accessories like these, you can create a space that is both beautiful and uniquely yours. The right accessories add the charm and personality that make your home truly special.

Our Scallop napkins fuses feminine curves with traditional English charm for a look that’s timeless yet on-trend. The REED difference is in the details, such as hand-applied bias edging which, unlike more common machine-made versions, will maintain their crisp scalloped embroidered edges for years to come. Set of four pieces.
