Up The Awesome of Your Bedding
I've had it. My bedding needs a makeover. When my husband and I bought our high-backed mahogany bed, I spend time accumulating that fluffy white duvet, the layers of white pillows and white Euros and that bolster and the white quilted shams and the white white white white white white white white white white white.
While the bedding offers the clean palate of hotel linens and the textured mix of fabrics and shapes, I wonder if I've gone the easy route in some way and missed out on some of the best elements of a fully stocked bed. The mixed textures, the lines and shapes that stand out when color--in all its variations of vibrance--comes into play. While bohemian beds can take seemingly unlimited mixes, more classic-modern-minimalist beds will want to stick with a maximum of three colors in varying proportions.
Here are some examples of NON-white beds that keep the chic, the glam, and the comfort-level without limiting themselves to white.

This is such a fantastically unusual room that uses bold pattern and shapes without overwhelming. The visual blankness around the louder elements crates balance.
