Pagoda Linen/Cotton Blend Duvet Covers

I've always been a sucker for Chinoiserie and Japonisme... so I was pleased to see this new pattern at Williams Sonoma Home: Watercolor Pagoda Duvet Covers & Shams.  It's a beautiful print in neutral tones on a 55% linen, 45% cotton blend fabric.

A full/queen duvet cover is $248 and measures 92 x 88 inches. A king duvet cover is $288 and measures 92 x 108 inches.  Shams are available in standard, king and euro sizes ($58 and $68 each).  Here's the official product copy: "Scaled up and printed in warm, neutral shades, motifs from a 17th-century wall hanging take on new life and fresh, modern appeal. The graceful scenes of teagardens and pagodas are printed on ivory linen-cotton with a soft, substantial hand and subtle texture. A twill binding neatly edges each piece."  Sounds lovely doesn't it?

Cool Graphic Print at Echelon Home

Echelon Home has a new print called "Interlock".  I love that it looks modern and clean, but is not too weird or garishly colored like some modern prints can be.  And, the super low prices are pretty compelling too!  A full/queen duvet cover set that includes pillow shams is just $79.  The print is done on 300 thread count Egyptian cotton sateen.

Dwell Sample Sale!

Dwell Studio has long been a favorite of mine.  They make some great prints and do quality detailing like adding linen trim...  So great news - they're having a sample sale!

If you're not in NYC, you can shop on their website.  It's not clear what will be included in the sample sale, but hopefully they'll have a few of their current line items like this really unique peacock print.  Normally, a full/queen duvet set is a rather pricey $280, so hopefully it will be on sale!

Lightweight Linen Coverlet, good warm weather option

It can be a dilemma in the Summer to decide what to cover your bed with; with the heat, you really don't want anything heavy at all - but just having sheets leaves your bed looking kind of naked!  So here's a good option in one of my favorite materials - - Linen!

Bella Notte Quilted Linen Coverlet, $427 for full/queen size.  Yes, it is pricey but linen lasts forever, and it is linen on both the front and back sides, and it's made in the USA.

It comes in an amazing palette of colors!
