For a while I have been considering adding Euro size pillows to the back of the pillow arrangement. I felt the bed needed a little more height because of the headboard. The issue hasn't been quite as pronounced since I upholstered the headboard and footboard though (more on that project here).
So, here's my updated bedding - new duvet cover at the foot of the bed from the Pottery Barn Outlet (pattern is Sydney Palampore and it's ). On a sad note, the Pottery Barn Outlet in Leesburg, Virginia where I bought these a few weeks ago, is closing next week. {Tears}
And here's a way before of the bedroom...
I've got a few more changes up my sleeve for this room. Might take a couple of weeks to implement since I forced myself into "minimal spending in January so we can spend money on some big stuff." UGH. I hate budgets but it will be worth it when you see what we're planning.
I also added a great magazine basket to the reading corner, also from the Pottery Barn Outlet.




If you loved Hunger Games, try Divergent by Veronica Roth. Same genre (YA dystopian), also a trilogy. Not sure if #s 2 and 3 are out yet, but a great read!
ReplyDeleteI immediately thought of the pillow scene from Along Came Polly! Have you seen it? funny. Oh & I LOVED the Hunger Games & cannot wait for the movie to come out!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Secret Daughter is aaamazing! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove the new bedding! I have the same Pottery Barn duvet in our bedroom!
ReplyDeleteI didn't make it past the line where you said ... the Pottery Barn is Leesburg is closing next week!! WHY?! I love the Leesburg Outlets, but mainly because I can hit up PB Outlet. This is such a bummer to hear! Ok, now I'm going to go back up and read the rest of your post. :)
ReplyDeleteThe bed looks great. You are absolutely right: it needed the height. Thanks, I needed that bit of inspiration.
ReplyDeletei got the hunger games series for xmas and read all three books in 6 days! loved it. i read one of Evanovich's number mysteries afterward, because i needed some humour.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful room! So relaxing :)
