Our Pick For New Bedding

The Juicefairys had a very productive weekend!  We already picked out a bedding set we liked.  We headed back over to Bed Bath & Beyond yesterday and looked at some of our options again. We learned the importance of buying bedding in person very quickly.  The Luxe Sky Duvet by Raymond Waites set I mentioned in my last post was nothing like it looked online.  The design was not nearly as pretty.  Many of the comforters were also pretty flat, and a little cheap looking and some were silk with embellishments that did not look very comfortable to sleep with.  We ended up going with this …

Medallion Aqua Full/Queen Quilt, Bed Bath & Beyond, $129.99

We liked the color and simple contemporary design of this set.  It looks so much prettier in person.  The colors in this pic are pretty bland.  It was also a comfortable cotton that I could imagine using if it got cold.  We decided to order a solid cotton duvet in sage that matches this set to use underneath this coverlet (they call it a quilt but it is pretty lightweight so I think it is more of a coverlet).  I think I am also going to register for some solid colored pillows so it isn’t so much of the noisy design in the bedroom.  I think all of these pillows with that embroidery is a bit much.

For those of you also searching for affordable bedding, here are some other ones that I liked …

Seville 12-Piece Quilt Set, Bed Bath & Beyond, $149.99

Queen set includes quilt, bed-skirt, two standard shams, two European shams, one flat sheet, one fitted sheet, two standard pillowcases, one 12″ x 16″ breakfast pillow and one 16″ x 16″ toss pillow.  That is a lot of stuff so I think it is a pretty good deal.  It is very pretty in person and not at all this color in photo.  It is more of a blue/green.

Luxury Hotel “Avalon” Bedding Collection, Dillard’s, $199 for Queen Set

Victoria White Sands 13-piece Bed in a Bag, Macy’s, $199 for All Sizes

If I didn’t have pets I would go all white like this.  How inviting does that look?
