I am searching for new bedding…
April 3, 2008 by Gertrude
… The bedding I am currently using is four years old and was purchased right before I went in to have my surgery in anticipation of having to spend days in bed recouping. It is time for a change and I am ready to throw some color in my life. I have always been a white sheets kind of girl, but I am actually wanting something a little more exotic this time around.
This pottery barn duvet sang to me when I first saw it. It is much brighter in person and although I usually shy away from florals, Miss Nora here caught my eye.
Before I take the plunge and make a pottery barn purchase (not my style) I am asking the readership for a little inspiration. There is a big bad world of bedding out there and I am not sure I can go it alone ;)
Ideas? I’d love to hear them!
Thanks,
Gertrude
LOVE THAT! But I’m more of a solid or softer print kind of girl. I (personally) am in love with Ty Pennington’s line at Sears or the Shabby Chic line at Target.
Gerty–While I absolutely adore that, I wonder how long YOU will love it being in your room! You know?? I see this piece as being something you would drag out occasionally to add a splash of color to your otherwise grey winters…Does this go with the rest of your stuff?? I could see where it might. (red couch)
Miss Jo…
I disagree with the last two entries. While it is bright (which I love about it) and different from what you normally used to in the bedroom… I think it would be great for you and I also think it fits in with your ever changing style. It’s vintage yet very current. I think it might be perfect for you!
