Now You can Buy Scalamandré, Jackie Kennedy’s Favorite Textile Line

The eternally stylish Jacqueline Kennedy loved to use Scalamandré, an American luxury textile manufacturer. She featured it in her home and the Kennedy White House. The line was only available to the trade for years and a yard of fabric could set you back $100 — until now.

In a collaboration with The Inside, they now offer accents, furniture and textiles featuring several of the most famous patterns at affordable prices.

The new collection features classic and affordable home staples like beds, ottomans and occasional chairs in seven patterns. All images courtesy of The Inside.

The team went through the nearly 100 year old Scalamandré archive to choose six of the luxury textile house’s most iconic fabrics. They included the famous Zebra print from The Royal Tenenbaums, as well as one never-before-seen print, Leaping Cheetahs. The graphic Baldwin Bamboo lattice pattern is also perfect for today’s interiors.

They also tweaked each of the seven prints to look fresh and modern for today’s homes. Chad Stark, President of Scalamandré, says, “By rescaling and recoloring a selection of iconic patterns, we’ve crafted an assortment that complements our trade-only offering and showcases our 90 year-old heritage brand.”

Here are some of our favorite pieces from the new line. You can explore the entire line here.

Each of the furniture pieces and accessories can be purchased in any of the Scalamandré prints.

Hackers Help: How to remake cam lock holes?

I want to put a 78.5” wide PAX configuration in a 77” space for a kids room . My plan is to eliminate the drawer on the right unit, then cut the shelves and rails to be 1.5” narrower. My question is, how do people attach two laminated pressboard IKEA pieces after they’ve cut off the cam lock holes? Related: See more Hackers Help questions and answers . Are they using drills bits and/or tiny hole saws to remake the cam lock holes? Or screws drilled in from the outside with wood glue? The outside pieces won’t be visible in my completed setup so I could go either way. I’m curious what other people are doing, either I haven’t seen this detail in past hacks or I haven’t been paying attention. ~ by Jenny *** Hi Jenny The best and tidiest method is to use the cut-off portion as a template to reproduce the same cam lock holes in the correct positions. The right sized drill bits and a Forstner bit should do the trick. A Forstner bit will drill a flat-bottomed hole (...
