25 February 2020.  For extra special spring arrivals we have a great selection of baby clothing and gifts. This year there are a few new additions to our collection we'd like to share with you.

First up, our terry loop cotton socks. These are super soft against tiny feet with extra stretch for room to grow. They fit size 0-12 months and come in ivory, blue, and pink.

Also new to the mix is our short sleeve baby jumpsuit. It's a soft, short-sleeved onesie and perfect for the newborn in your life. Made of 100% organic cotton, it fits size 0-3 months.

Our perennial favorite for babies is our best-selling cotton baby blanket, a beautiful, 100% cotton knit blanket in a soft, dye-free, natural ivory. It makes a lovely heirloom quality gift.

And could anything be cuter than our linen baby shoes? These darling little slippers have a shell button closure. You'll want to save them to pass along to another special baby in your life. Fits 0-6 months.

You can see all of our baby items here.

If you're purchasing a baby gift to send to a special little someone, we'd be happy to wrap it for you. Just leave us a note in the comment section on your order and we'll wrap your item in simple white paper and a little bit of ribbon. We can also include a handwritten note on one of our postcards. Let us know what you'd like the message to say.  We'd love to help you send a warm welcome to all new arrivals! 

17 February 2020. Sometimes little things can make a big difference. While most of us would probably love to renovate an out-dated bathroom, we've got a few tricks up our sleeve for refreshing your space without all the fuss, bother and grand expense.

Here's our cheat sheet for an instant re-fresh.

Formerly our chambray kitchen cloth, this new medium size chambray towel is perfect for a hand or hair towel in your bathroom. In natural stripe, navy stripe, and grey. And yes, they match our larger bath size chambray towel.  

Simple beauty for your bath, our linen massage bath mat is practical and pretty.  In natural and white, you'll love how the texture of this mat feels on bare feet.

Two great things that go great together: our linen knit washcloth and linen massage bath mitten. A really nice and natural way to get clean. All-natural linen is good for your bod and dries quickly in your bathroom.  

Linen waffle towels. Based on traditional European towels, Fog uses raw linen to create a textile that is long-lasting and gets softer and more absorbent with each wash. Plus, the waffle texture gently exfoliates as you dry. We love the look and texture of these towels, they are a pleasure to use daily. We offer a range of four sizes, from washcloths to extra large bath towels, in natural and white.  

And last, but not least, a fresh and clean upgrade for the lowly toilet paper holder. Our brass and iron holders manage to do their job beautifully with a timeless minimalist profile.  

You can find more great bath products in our bed & bath section.  

31 January 2020.  Spring's not quite around the corner, but our spring clothing is! We've just unpacked our first round of the 2020 spring clothing line and we've got loads of new colors and shapes to share.  

First off...two things we're really excited about. Denim White and Morocco Red.  Both these colors are new this spring, and although they are polar opposites, we think they'll add some spring to your step, so to speak.  

We introduced our linen denim line last fall, and now we've added Denim White to the mix. We really love the weight of this linen. It's a tightly woven fabric of 100% soft, but thick, white denim colored linen thread, which offers warmth and flexibility. This spring we're offering the Allison Pant, the Kristin Kurta, the Meg Tuck Sarrouel Pants, and the Traci Overalls in Denim White. 

Morocco Red packs a glorious color punch. It's a deep cherry red that seems to flatter everyone.  We love it in the Hanna Tunic. It's also lovely in the Charlotte Top and the Neive Top.

We're also loving:

The Ruby Shirt with its little shell buttons and notched collar. 

The Ellie Overalls, because they are super cute and have adjustable straps on the bib.  We can't wait to layer our favorite shirts under this one.

The Jodi Work Coat in a deep blue...because the color is  gorgeous.

The Nancy Wide Leg Pants with a beautiful wide palazzo-style leg.  Swishy and flattering.

The Molly Dress with its delicate pin-tucks across the chest...just the best little detail. 

And last but not least our new line of linen leggings...perfect to wear under all our dresses, skirts, tunics, and coats to keep the chill of early spring in check.  

You can see the whole collection here.

28 January 2020.  Welcome to the new year and a fresh start! We're settling into 2020 quite nicely and we hope you are as well. After a whirl-wind holiday season it's nice to enjoy a slower pace for a moment.  

We've been noticing a wonderful trend lately, one that certainly lends itself to a quiet and cold month. Mending! Mending is a great way to extend the life of your favorite clothing. It's really pretty easy to repair small holes and tears in clothing yourself. There are some great tutorials around on how to repair clothing by hand using simple sewing and patching techniques. All you need besides know-how are a needle and thread and some fabric scraps, and we've been thinking our linen remnant sets are the perfect thing to get you started on your mending projects.  

We have a few different sizes of remnant sets in our Etc. section (just scroll down to the bottom to see all the choices).

We've found these mending tutorials from Julie O'Rourke to be really helpful. You can find them in her Instagram stories under "mending" on her Instagram account, Rudyjude.  

Get your needles ready folks, and bring some new life to old favorites.  

21 January 2020.  Great news for those of you who fell in love with our wool leggings last fall. We've got them in linen for Spring 2020! Made of 80% linen and 20% nylon for a touch of stretch, these leggings are the perfect layering weight for winter into spring, or any season for that matter. They're offered in a range of neutral tones that will complement any outfit. We're just having a hard time deciding which color is our favorite. Let us know how you'll layer them. We love seeing how you style your Fog Linen on Instagram, so give us a #shopfoglinen when you post.

17 December 2019.  Every year we like to remind folks about using our napkins for holiday entertaining.  We love the mood they add to any winter gathering: a little elegance, but nothing too fussy.

Once we've got our table settings covered, we can start dreaming about what to serve. 

For a cozy evening with friends, nothing beats the simplicity of serving a hearty soup with fresh bread and a green salad.  Erin Boyle of Reading My Tea Leaves, has some great winter soup suggestions here.  

For a larger gathering or a cocktail party,  we have our eye on these recipes from one of our favorite food bloggers, Marcella DiLeonardo of Modest Marce.

Here's wishing that all your gatherings will be filled with merriment and joy.

11 December 2019.  The last few weeks, we've had a few people remark apologetically that they actually love winter.  Honestly, we couldn't agree more.  Of course we all love summer, but the darker, colder days bring with them a sense of comfort and calm, especially in the evenings. 

We've got a few items that lend themselves well to a winter's eve.  

Wool Linen Slipper: this 'one size' slipper is a clever re-purpose design created out of our wool/linen remnants. A super comfy and breathable room-shoe style slipper, these fit up to a women's size 8.   

Washed Waffle Blanket: not just for your bed, these linen blankets will be perfect for use in your living room on your sofa or favorite chair. Inspired by antique linen, the subtle waffle texture feels comforting against the skin.  Perfect to wrap up in.  In Natural and Grey

Spica Night Shirt: a wonderfully classic sleeping shirt for the cooler months. The Spica features shell button closure at the v-neck and side splits at hem for ease of movement. This, a cup of cocoa, and some fuzzy socks? You'll be all set.

Mia Bathrobe: a classic bathrobe constructed of FogLinen Work's washed waffle linen in natural. Featuring a shawl collar, separate belt, and deep pockets, it can easily be worn after bath or just lounging around. 

Once you're settled in, if you're looking for a good book to cozy up with, here are a few suggestions:

Inland by Téa Obreht 

The Yellow House by Sarah Broom

Wabi Sabi: Japanese Wisdom for a perfectly imperfect life by Beth Kempton

The Golden Thread by Kassia St. Clair

If you have any favorite books or podcasts to add to the winter entertainment list, let us know.   Meanwhile, enjoy settling in for a long winter's night.  

26 November 2019.  The shortest day of the year is fast approaching and with it, the ancient tradition of bringing the outdoors in.  Whether it's a simple branch hung with sparkly things or fresh greenery to brighten the dark corners on a December afternoon, we love a naturalistic approach to seasonal decor.  This year, Fog Linen Work has some warm, brassy accents to add to the mix.  They can be used to decorate a tree, branch or wreath, strung from a bit of twine and hung over a mantel or window, or added to a table place setting.  We also love them as a gift topper.  We hope they'll add some warmth to your season!

Here at Shop Fog Linen, we're wishing you all a warm and sparkly holiday season.   

12 November 2019.  What to wear as the weather gets colder?  Here we tend to layer, layer, layer and this requires a bit of forethought and creativity when it comes to the daily question of what to wear. When we can have a few different types of weather packed into one day, we really count on our clothing to multi-task.  We need it to be warm, comfortable and hopefully make us feel great when we put it on each morning. This season, Fog Linen's winter collection has us reaching for pieces that fill all of these requirements.  

The Margot Tunic: Our new favorite. An easy tunic with pockets, a pointed collar and an a-line silhouette. Margot has a lovely little button detail at the collar.  In black on black herringbone.  We can't wait to wear this one over jeans and leggings or a longer skirt.  

The Makena Dress: In our James plaid pattern, the Makena Dress has a gathered detail across the chest and on seam pockets. This one is so great for winter!  

The Nellie Top. A smock style pullover with a single patch pocket and 3/4 length sleeves. Perfect for winter layering. In denim navy.

The Kristen Kurta. A tunic dress with front patch pockets. Perfect to wear with tights or over pants.  A comfortable and versatile winter option. In denim navy and denim blue. 

The Jessica Dress: Long and lovely, the Jessica dress has room for layering tights and tops underneath for extra warmth. We love the beautiful flow this dress has when worn.  Add a great pair of boots and you've got the perfect look for winter. In herringbone.  

The Traci Overalls: These are just so amazing for layering.  A fun and forgiving take on the classic overalls. Plenty of room at the neckline and arms for layering underneath. There are on-seam pockets at the sides and the legs are wide through to the hem.  In denim navy and denim blue.
