Mixing and matching bedding
Comments (9)I use king sheets on my queen bed all the time, even the fitted ones. I just tuck the excess fitted part under the mattress. As for mixing and matching, why not? Some designers like Ralph Lauren mix and match patterns and textures purposely. Take a look at Ralph Lauren bedding pictures at Macys.com to get an idea of how the designer balances prints and solids and various fabrics. I agree with other posters that how much care you take with balance depends on how much of the various elements shows when you make your bed. If I were on a limited budget, I would probably pay more attention to the quality of the materials, particularly the sheets. You can't see color or pattern in the dark, but you certainly want to feel comfortable when you sleep. Keep an eye on flash sales sites like OneKingsLane.com and Ruelala.com because they will often have sales on quality bedding. I love vintage sheets and have bought a lot from eBay. Often, they are unused, but old. It's a little harder with Home Goods because sometimes name brands are duds. I usually try to check reviews on sites like Macys.com before I unwrap sheets from Home Goods in case that particular sheet was a bad fabrication. For instance, I think Ralph Lauren recently had a sheet that got terrible reviews and then I saw a bunch of them at Home Goods. I know from personal experience that Tommy Bahama sheets pill. Real Simple has a good guide for buying sheets on their site. It's worth reading for basic information that may help you in your shopping. I'll link it below.

Comments (5)I'm in the process of working on this -- will post pics when I get it all together but I'm waiting for my new featherbed topper to arrive before I put on my new bedding. I had a big splurge and bought a gray cotton Eileen Fisher quilt, white linen sheets, and a linen bed skirt from Rest. Hardware. Also ordered an upholstered headboard in a darker gray woven fabric. I have to wait several weeks for the headboard, but as soon as my featherbed arrives, I'm putting the bed together. Hopefully today!...See MoreBedding to Match Rug
Comments (7)What a pretty rug! Do you have pictures of the room? What type of bedding were you thinking of, style-wise? You have a lot of colour options based on this rug. I'd be tempted to go with the darker blue but you may prefer a subdued green. A neutral colour to match the background would be lovely as well. You can pick up the other colours with pillows and accessories....See MoreMatching curtains with blue and cream white damask bedding
Comments (3)Since you likely won't be able to match the material in the duvet, I'd select a blue and white patterned drapery panel that is taller than what you currently have. Place at least two panels on each side (more if you plan to close the drapery at night) I moved over the chest of drawers to center it on the space between the wall and the panels. The ceiling fan light is terrible so I changed that to just a plain fan and added a sunburst mirror over the headboard for a bit of sparkle....See MoreCelery. Visualization, Rendering images
