Linda Barker Home: Linda launches second wave of homeware collection
Published: 5 August 2022 - Neil Mead
British designer, writer and presenter Linda Barker is extending her exclusive homeware collection with home furnishings retailer Terrys. Originally launched in April 2021, this second collection will include a much-anticipated bedding range along with new fabrics, prints and patterns.
Exploring Linda’s love for nature and a passion for English country gardens the collection will include two new designs which she has named Wisteria and Yarrow.
Linda’s Wisteria print depicts hand painted English birds with long trails of pretty wisteria flowers inspired by the impressive frontage of Linda’s own Georgian home. Whilst Yarrow is inspired by her love of English meadows. Yarrow features hand painted wildflowers including achillea, commonly known as yarrow, an everyday weed found wild in the hedgerows or as a cultivar in English gardens. Both collections are designed in some of Linda’s favourite colours including misty grey, cream and forest green, perfect for accessorising most colour schemes.
These two new designs will join the popular Octavia’s Tangle pattern from Linda’s first bedlinen collection, itself inspired by her love of botanical drawings.
Linda says “unstructured, free flowing flowers, graceful in the way they twist and turn have always been the flowers I would most choose for my own home. For the houses I decorate I often use natural plants and grasses and I think its lovely to combine bought flowers with those I might pick from the fields to create unstructured arrangements. It’s no coincidence then that my collection of bedlinen shows a passion for the natural beauty of the countryside”.
The luxury bedding which is 100% American Cotton with a 200-thread count, starts at £59 (RRP £85) for a single, £90 (RRP £120) for a double and £115 for a King-size (RRP £150), and is available to shop online, here
Along with the bedding collection, the newly introduced designs will also be featured on curtains and roman blinds, all with made to measure options. The designs are also available as fabrics, allowing you to add Linda’s beautiful botanicals to upholstery projects.
Linda says: “my patterns wrap you inside a natural world that reflects gardens, fields, and the wider countryside. I hope you like the new collection as much as I do.”
