Images & Copyright

Home decor is a visual subject, so we're careful about where our pictures come from.

Where our images come from

1. AI-generated scenes. Most room and vignette images are created with AI image tools from prompts written by our team, then chosen and edited by a person. They're illustrations, labeled as AI where relevant. See our AI policy.
2. Retailer product images. In product grids, images may come through affiliate programs (Amazon's product image tools, for example) or from the brand, used under those programs' terms.
3. Licensed stock. Now and then we use photos licensed from stock libraries, within the terms of the license.
4. Our own graphics. Pin designs, diagrams and printable mockups are made by our team. If a real photo is ours, it's marked as ours.
5. Reader photos, only with written permission and credited the way the reader asks.

We don't download and republish images from Instagram, Pinterest or other blogs. If we ever feature someone else's photo, it will be with their permission or through an official embed, with credit.

Using our images

You're welcome to save images from Linen & Lamp to Pinterest with the Save button, which keeps the link to the original post. For anything else, such as reposting on social media, using an image on your blog or in a product listing, please ask first. Our printables are for personal use and can't be resold or shared as files.

Requesting credit or removal

If you believe an image or text on Linen & Lamp is yours and was used without permission, we'll make it right. You can ask us to credit you, change how the work is shown, or remove it. Email [email protected] with the subject "Image request" and include:

We aim to reply within 48 hours and act on valid requests promptly.

If we removed your content by mistake

If material you provided was removed and you believe that was an error, you can send a counter-notice with: your physical or electronic signature; identification of the removed material and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief it was removed by mistake or misidentification; and your name, address and phone number, with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address.
