Lynda Trout

My story begins in a small town along the Mississippi River, Vicksburg.  It's my home and where my love of fine linens, elegant table settings (especially those monogrammed!) started.  My mother, Carolyn, was a collector of fine linens, silver, and crystal. To be a guest in her home was such a wonderful experience and she had a way of making everyone feel special. Her love of all things "elegant" was a significant influence in my life from a very young age. Many moons have passed since that wonderful childhood I was so blessed to experience at Glenwood Place. I have taken my mother's passion for "elevating the everyday" and put it into my monogramming, embroidery and gift business. Whether it's beautiful outfits for your little one, elegant napkins for a stunning table scape, a custom monogrammed gift for that special someone, you are sure to find something to "elevate your everyday" at Monogram Proper. This business is a dream come true for me. It has been my greatest joy, providing  customers an unforgettable experience in selecting that special gift that often becomes an heirloom. It's not about the expense, it's a mindset and a lifestyle. As my beautiful mother used to say, "Life is to be celebrated. Why save the treasured items only for "special" occasions?" At Monogram Proper we want to assist you in "elevating the everyday"! Here's to happy times!
