Anyone here good at decorating?
I need help. Ive been to Macys, Pennys, Target, BedBathandBeyond, LinensNThings, etc etc etc and CANNOT find a damn bedding set to save my life. I want something simple, contemporary and I like tropical colors. Im currently searching endless bedding sets on Amazon..
Anyone bored enough to help?
It needs to go with my bedroom set... seen
I want something that I see and say "Thats it!"
Ive seen a few that I like but arent perfect.
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
What kind of look/feel you going for?
How 'bout something like ?White with accent pillows in tropical colors...
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
Husband now tells me he wants bright colored bedspread... maybe greens/lt blues and rust colors?! I dunno... Im at a loss.
White no good - will get dirty way too fast with my family!
See - I like and then would use bright colored pillows like a couple of and a couple others with some kind of pattern or something - color by accessorization.
BUT husband wants bedspread to be colorful - this sucks.
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
I can't think of anything that will go with that white X.

This is pretty and affordable. The page won't pull up for some reason but it's the graphic linen bedding under comforters and floral in green.
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
try bluefly.com as well as Ikea.com :)
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
I prefer solids with cool pillows. IMO- the best thing to do is go to a fabric store, and pick out 2-3 great throw pillow fabrics, and also buy the pillow incerts. Take them to a tailor, and then find solid bedding to match. here's a combo idea:
how about:
with this throw:
(the yellow)
and pillows: here are some of my faves of the fabrics-the whole tropical section is great, really. so you may just find your own! I'd pick 1 or two prints, and then 1-2 solids. I imagine your pillow arrangement is similar to mine... I'm a pillow fiend tho. I have 3 different fabrics/shaped pillows.
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
Heres a pic... this is my current bedding - tropical feel but not too much... I like it but its old and worn - Ive had it almost 5 years. Time for an upgrade - and it looks funny on my furniture...

I like this but am not totally sure - may be too modern for me but its an idea of what I like (kinda). This is really frustrating...
I guess Im leaning more modern than tropical.

so everyone can laugh at me and my horrible decorating?! :D
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
You know we love ya Audrey! :D
Re: Anyone here good at decorating?
yep! lol.
btw- I love the beeding set you posted, it's very much like mine.
since you're going to buy a home and redecorate again soon, don't go too overboard with what you pick.
oh- also it's really simple to have a whole bedset made for you! Go wonder through a nice fabric store, ideally one that specializes in home decor fabrics, as they're w\ider (for a duvet)
