I will go shop there right now, thanks!!!</p> <p>@sunny: that is cute, and good prices! I don't like the ties though.. I'm crazy picky about duvets and I need good solid button closure. ebay is an interesting prospect-- I am totally the type to fall in love wtih something and then go searching for all the pieces of the set. Thanks for all the crazy helpful suggestions!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1127503 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 23:39:38 +0000 sunny 1127503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Was just browsing Nordstrom.com and thought this was cute... and its 50% off! No Euro shams though... just King pillow sized. </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/nordstrom-at-home-carson-duvet-cover/3552276?origin=category" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/nordstrom-at-home-carson-duvet-cover/3552276?origin=category</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/nordstrom-at-home-carson-pillow-sham/3552284?origin=category" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/nordstrom-at-home-carson-pillow-sham/3552284?origin=category</a></p> <p>Btw - another idea is if you like a particular Hotel Collection print, you can often find them on eBay after awhile. Sometimes they are cheaper than at Macys... sometimes not. I was looking for something to complete my set and ended up getting the last piece on eBay since it was gone from the stores. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1127370 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 21:28:25 +0000 mrs.gm 1127370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the bed! Have you looked at West Elm? A year or so ago, I went to their Outlet and got a duvet cover on sale, and I love it. They have a lot of patterned duvets, but also some simpler, textured ones. </p> <p>Some are even on sale on their website: <a href="http://www.westelm.com/shop/sale/sale-bedding/?cm_type=lnav" rel="nofollow">http://www.westelm.com/shop/sale/sale-bedding/?cm_type=lnav</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126663 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:26:40 +0000 sunny 1126663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Yes I bought my sheets in store.

My husband actually liked it because its just brown and white. He's really picky about materials and hated our duvet so he was open to patterns/prints as long as we got somethign new. Now I've got to find curtains! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126612 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:08:53 +0000 Smurfette 1126612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I love that bedding.

If I recall the price was better but for what we got I would ahve easily paid $100. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126567 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 14:45:57 +0000 mrs. wagon 1126567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: didn't know what suzani was til now! pretty! Yeah, I feel like 4 would be good. I like the idea of "oversized" euro pillows... I feel like regular ones still won't be big enough.</p> <p>@sunny: @T.H.O.U.: ahhhh costco!! of course!! did you guys get these in store?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126563 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 14:44:27 +0000 hellobeeboston 1126563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>omg i LURVE your bed!!!! GORG -- i need that - Jordan's? i want to get a nice new bed when we move which will hopefully be soon ;) we also have a king - its the BEST.</p> <p>I get our bedding from West Elm - i love their duvets. a bunch of their sets are on sale right now too -- not sure of your style but there are a bunch of good buys online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126542 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 14:34:46 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1126542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Costco just had some great bedding sets for like $80! We love it! Comes with a comforter, quilt and lots of shams.</p> <p><a href="http://www.costco.com/Tranquil-Nights%E2%84%A2-Vinci-Comforter-Set.product.100070360.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.costco.com/Tranquil-Nights%E2%84%A2-Vinci-Comforter-Set.product.100070360.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126533 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 14:33:33 +0000 sunny 1126533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love plain white sheets! My favorite set is the Kirkland Signature set from Costco. IIRC they put them on "sale" (eg. $5 off) for Black Friday every year. </p> <p>I don't know what your lighting situation is like but our room is quite dim and I noticed that when I switched up our duvet from purple to beige it really brightened up the room.</p> <p>I really like Hotel Collection at Macy's. Full price is quite pricey but you can always get stuff on sale if you are willing to wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1126514 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 14:25:20 +0000 looch 1126514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you like suzani print? Pottery Barn may still have some oversized Suzani embroidered Euro Shams...they have a good stuff in general. For a queen sized bed, I like 3 Euro squares, for a king, I don't know if you need 4 or what...I feel like 2 is not enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1123718 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 12:50:59 +0000 mrs. wagon 1123718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: yeah, looking at it again it looks like college bedding! I think I will just use our plain white bedding and troll homegoods for months until I find something beautiful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1123712 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 12:48:17 +0000 shopaholic 1123712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oooh! Pretty bed! I'm so bad at picking for other people. I've bought almost all of our duvet covers and bedding at HomeGoods/Marshalls, Target, and Anthropologie. Not a fan of that Ikea one though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1123634 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 12:26:12 +0000 mrs. wagon 1123634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>here is a much better pic of the bed :) </p> [attach=30/13/mu033p.600x400.3154.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122958 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:48:41 +0000 mrs. wagon 1122958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: hmm.. thanks! so $45 would be a good price? There's a closeout on macys.com... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122954 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:47:41 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 1122954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ive actually been thinking of making the switch to this look as well! We are talking about getting a new bed...so we'll see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122948 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:46:32 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 1122948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so. Something like this? </p> [attach=3437/13/mtzsxl.550x536.monogram-sheets.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122947 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:46:31 +0000 chopsuey 1122947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: I really like it! It's pretty! :)<br /> we went to crate and barrel on Sunday! :) I can't wait to buy furniture!! So many choices though. No bueno for this indecisive gal.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122943 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:45:19 +0000 Foodnerd81 1122943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: euro shams are the big square ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122938 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:44:44 +0000 Foodnerd81 1122938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: I think they were $60 which was a bit more than we expected, but pretty good quality. Much softer than ikea sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122925 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:41:33 +0000 mrs. wagon 1122925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: I was thinking that. How big do you think the big pillows with covers would have to be? Are they called euro shams? I'm seeing that on bedding sets... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122919 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:37:43 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 1122919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the new bed. Not a huge fan of the ikea set. What if you kept the white stuff, and just bought 2 new big pillows with new covers (with a design or color you like) and a matching lightweight blanket to use as a throw on the bed? And then a matching neckroll, or throw pillows?</p> <p>Eta I guess you'd have to buy all new white stuff since the bed is bigger! Duh. Sorry, long day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122911 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:35:58 +0000 mrs. wagon 1122911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: hehe I have a feeling I will be using our queen duvet for a while!! do you remember how much you paid for king sheets at marshall's? I love Ikea duvets but I'm not crazy about their sheets.</p> <p>@chopsuey: haha thanks!! I can give you lots of inspiration as to the bed...!! we're on a super strict budget so we settled for this one... I wanted one with a shorter headboard and nailhead details. There are beautiful ones at Crate and Barrel and Restoration Hardware!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122906 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:33:06 +0000 chopsuey 1122906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh love your bed! :D I'm pretty unadventurous when it comes to bedding too. Buying a new bed when we move so will follow for inspiration! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122886 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:25:12 +0000 Foodnerd81 1122886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm no help. We got our king bed in the beginning of April and still have a queen duvet cover on it! We bought white king size sheets at Marshall's but can't decide on a comforter or duvet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-shop-for-bedding#post-1122878 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:20:28 +0000 mrs. wagon 1122878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We finally pulled the trigger and ordered a king-sized bed... woohoo!! Now to move on to bedding. I am completely unadventurous with bedding (right now we have plain white sheets with a plain white duvet with little white, aka, invisible embroidery on it!) and would stick with the all-white motif, but the bed we ordered has a really high headboard and I'd like to have some tall pillows. So I think we have to find something that's a little more design-y. </p> <p>Budget is key!! I've been looking at this set: <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/80224727/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/80224727/</a> but I can't decide if it's cool or weird.</p> <p>Here is the bed (queen pictured) and our bedroom has light aqua (more blue than green) walls and dark wood furniture. </p> [attach=30/13/mtzrq4.600x393.20014217_KaylieBuckwheat_QueenBed1.jpg]
