For the Bershad family, Thanksgiving has always been a time when the whole family comes together. And no matter what your togetherness looks like, joy is yours for the making.
"It's actually one of my favorite times of the year," says Philip Bershad, President of Phillip Jeffries. "It's November and it's starting to feel chilly out. Chestnuts are roasting and we're bringing back that feeling of home."
Layer On The Pretty Plaids
To creates a cozy, welcoming ambiance, layer a Phillip Jeffries plaid wallcovering in a neutral palette on your walls. Imagine towering mountains, glittering lochs, dense woodlands and miles upon miles of tartan and tattersall plaids. Above, our Paxton Plaid in Brown with Beige, is the perfect textural print for a dining room. The digitally designed plaid pattern is artistically layered over a subtle herringbone pattern to create the look of a woven textile plaid. A multitude of colorations are available digitally printed on natural and vinyl grounds for a virtually seamless collection where artistry meets innovation.
Phillip Jeffries gorgeous plaid collections are the perfect wallcovering for Fall and anytime of the year. We offer a range of plaids including our Preppy Plaid shown below in the powder room. From oversized and modern to tailored and grid-like, we offer a thoughtful and curated selection of colorways. Sample our Preppy Plaid or Georgian Grid as shown below.
Spending Time Together
Our US offices and showrooms will be enjoying time off to be together. Please note that all US showrooms will be closed on Thursday and Friday, November 24th and 25th. We will reopen on Monday, November 28th. We're taking this time to pause, look around us, and say 'thank you.'
"We have our family and friends over and everyone is together.' says Philip. "One time we had 100 people at the house. I just love that coming together."
PJ Gives Back
More than 45 years ago, Sue and Eric Bershad began this journey with just 10 grasscloths and a dream. Today, that dream is a reality thanks to your support, and, for that, we are grateful! We still sell authentic grasscloth wallcoverings – as well as other naturals, paper weaves, murals, silks, specialty, vinyl, and more. The "more" also means that we strive to make the world more beautiful one wall at a time and one tree at a time (every order plants a tree!).
This November, we are proud to share several community service events our employees hosted. Throughout the month, PJ hosted a Thanksgiving Food Drive for a local pantry and a successful "Barktober" donation drive for our furry animal friends. Our employees also hosted a Bake Sale at PJ Headquarters with all the proceeds going to victims of the recent hurricanes in Florida. These are just a few small ways that we strive to make a positive impact in our communities.
With full hearts, Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!
