A south-central Iowa company that makes lace is capitalizing on a popular PBS TV show. Heritage Lace, based in Pella, has signed a licensing deal to produce a host of home decor products, all inspired by the series “Downton Abbey,” which is set in 1920s England. The list of products will include everything from napkins and pillows to gloves, ladies shawls and shower curtains.
There will be more than 200 products in the collection, due out later this month at: www.heritagelace,com.
