New Bedding

It takes me a long time to finsh up design projects at home. I think about everything for a long time and make sure I make the right purchases. Back in September we painted and redid my 8 year olds bedroom.  Here it is:

We have everything done except the bedding.  I finally picked here up a duvet insert and we picked out this lovely cover from Urban Outfitters on sale to boot!  The room is primarily blue but has green and lavender accents too.  The big floral of the duvet will pull the whole thing together.  I can wait till it gets here.

I also purchased this cover for the master bedroom.  We've had a lovely white cover that folds over the end of the bed which I love, but this one will be add to the rotation now too.  I also found this one was on sale too! 

Little Birdies

I picked  up these 3 little white porcelain like swallow birdies after the holidays and finally got around to hanging one of them up.  I just think they are the sweetest little things.  The collage wall in our bedroom needed some more white, so I freshened it up with the larger one. I still need to add the two small ones before they get broken.  I may add them to another wall in the space. 

my new bedding

We are a one income family, so everything I spend has to be thought out. I have been wanting to change our bedding for a couple of years. Most of what we have is almost 10 years old. I'm ready for a change. I decided to only buy organic or something old. Well, I blew that plan when I purchased the sheets at Target. They are 1000 thread count and super soft, and the most lushest shade of gray. I love them. So, next up was a new duvet. I found an organic tufted one at West Elm, but the color didn't work. Then, a couple of months ago they introduced a new white version. I finally ordered it on Ebay last week. Next up, the coverlet. I thought I wanted this one, until I saw it was not turquoise enough for me. So, I saw Amy Butler had come out with a whole line of organic bedding by Welspun. I checked it out and fell in love with the charcoal gray coverlet. It took me a few days, before I figured out how to purchase it, Bed,Bath and Beyond is selling the line. So now I just need to order! Oh yeah, I'm thinking about painting the walls a light shade of grey. I can't wait to put it all together for a nice photo shoot. Stay tuned.
