New bedding






So, my mom will be the first to tell you that I am never satisfied with bedding. The minute I have one, I am on to the next, so she would say. So, maybe she is right. Luke and i traveled a lot lately and after we had stayed in hotels in Austin for weeks, I came home to believe that my bedding looked like a hotel room bedding. I hated it. So, this weekend I ventured out to make my own. I bought a coverlet from target, the brown velvet top and used a salmon colored top sheet to make an envelope for my two down comforters inside. For some terribly odd reason, Luke and I have not gotten too hot! We both can't figure it out, but it is really heavy and just surrounds you in bed love! So I used wooden buttons for the closing and a great fabric I found at Britax to cover the large pillows. I am so happy and part of me thinks I will be keeping this one for a while since it took some huge muscle power to put together.
