What Inspires Peacock Alley?

Peacock Alley finds inspiration from the simple experiences in our daily life to the fascinating travels around the world.  Fashion, architecture and nature influence Peacock Alley’s design elements.  But deep in the heart of Texas lies a special retreat that pushes the creative needle just a little bit further…

It is place of escape, silence and inner peace that reveals a story of tradition, heritage and family.  It’s the Peacock Alley family farm – a place where everything makes sense and where Peacock Alley’s best ideas are born.

The Peacock Alley Family Farm: Granbury, TX

The surrounding natural terrain and lake waters, shadows and textures, the sound of nature.  These elements spark creativity and passion for all things beautiful.





The Peacock Alley family farm has been in the Needleman family for over 30 years.  It was originally bought as a raw piece of land by Mary Ella and Ray Gabler in 1980 to form their vision for family respite.  Mary Ella’s two sons Jason and Josh Needleman, Peacock Alley’s CEO and Vice President of product development spent much of their childhood building the farm and crafting it to become what it is today.

“It’s my temple,” says Josh Needleman, Vice President of product development.  “I have so many wonderful childhood memories of the farm since every little detail of the farm was built by us.”

“The best part about it is that we now get to step back and see our children experience the same joy we did at the farm,” says Josh.

The farm is not just a city get away for the Needleman family, but a gathering place for family and friends.

The life-long memories from the farm are now reflected in much of Peacock Alley’s signature collection.  The textures from the natural elements of the farm - the oaks, wild grasses, leaves, sand dunes - appear throughout Peacock Alley’s matelasses, textured blankets and towel collections. 


Our love for percale sheeting came to life while spending summers at the farm - the need for cool, crisp sheeting during the Texas heat.  Percale sheets are now a core staple of Peacock Alley’s basic sheeting line.

The Peacock Alley family continues to share the same amount of passion for the farm as they do their own company – both are places where they learn and grow.

“The farm is an evolution,” says Josh.  “Every year we make addition and changes and I see the exact same thing happening at Peacock Alley - it just keeps getting better.”

Paying Tribute to The Classic White Bed

On Thanksgiving Day PeacockAlley.com revealed its new look by launching a new consumer website with a cool, sleek image and lots of fun features!

To celebrate of our newly made-over site, Peacock Alley is paying tribute to the Classic White Bed and sharing the meaning and endless possibilities an All White Bed brings with their beloved customers and followings.



White in design often has been a tenet of minimalism and simplification. Inspired white also represents expansive magical thinking, openness, unlimited possibility.  White symbolizes a blank canvas—signifying a sense of new beginnings.  White reflects an emerging need for clarity and to grasp what is truly important.

Over the years, an All White Bed has become known as Peacock Alley's trademark look and we encourage our customers to use the All White Bed as a blank canvas to add in a little piece of you.  Throw on some fun decorative pillows, or maybe even a bed scarf or cozy throw and the end of the bed?  This is your chance to reveal your inner creativity and make your bed a true reflection of YOU!

Make your White Bed a place you never want to leave...

Tip # 1: Accessorize!


 Even the smallest hint of color or texture can make your bed pop!  Just by adding a colorful, funky pillow with a cool design or bold throw at the end of the bed can turn a neutral seeting into a chic retreat oozing style and flair.


Add a fun Decorative Pillow or cozy Captiva Throw



Tip # 2: Personalize It!

Nothing says "you" more than a monogrammed pillow or sham with inspirational message that you love like "Live", "Love" ,"Dream" or better yet - your name.

Tip # 3: Simplify!

Sometimes less is more.  You don't necessarily have to add a bunch of pillows in different sizes and shapes to make your bed stand out.  By adding a bold, vibrant print in small pieces you can accomplish so much more.  Not only will you achieve that modern design look everyone craves but you can also switch out your look more often, at a minimal cost!  That's the beauty of the White Bed - your bed accessories can change with your mood, style and trend but the "All White" canvas is timeless.
