Summer Bedroom Refresh and Tips on How to Choose Bedding
This is the perfect time of year to update your home with changes that while simple certainly pack a punch!
Welcome to My Summer Bedroom Refresh
This is my bedroom before ~ very dull and boring. I used to decorate with a passion ~ there was nothing safe in my path but 4 years ago life changed drastically for me and a re-prioritization of things became necessary. Decorating went to the bottom of the list ~ keeping a clean home was one thing but keeping a pretty home became another.
A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to work with Crane & Canopy. Oh my goodness was I excited. I was able to pick ANY duvet and pillow sham set that I wanted and I chose this lovely Ashbury Yellow duvet with matching pillow shams which is a luxurious 300 thread count 100% extra-long stable cotton sateen weave. That means that it's high quality with a great feel to it. *see tips below for thread count explanation
I wanted something to brighten up my room and that's why I chose the pattern above. I was so excited by how pretty the bed looked I even added some pretties to my nightstand ~ a shabby chic bird, a live lavender plant and a pretty white planter with my twine nest in it.
I love the piping on the edges of the duvet and the pillow shams. When I was little I always thought that was 'fancy' and I still do.
Years ago I when I purchased a duvet from another company my comforter slid all over the place and ended up in a 'ball' at the bottom of the duvet ~ Crane & Canopy solves that problem with ties in the corner of their duvet covers. It was super easy to slip the cover on ~ tie all the corners in place and zip up the bottom of my cover.
We've been using our set for 2 weeks now and everything still looks perfect...no bumps, no bulges and no slippage! To say we love our set would truly be an understatement. Every night when I go into bed I have a smile on my face from this lovely, fashionable and high-quality bedding set.
If you're looking for some helpful tips on How to Choose Bedding check out the graphic below and head on over to Crane & Canopy to browse their wonderful selection of bedding sets; they carry high-quality and beautifully designed bedding without the department store markup ~ there's no middle man and the savings are passed on to the consumer. P.S. When my bedding arrived it was wrapped in tissue paper with a lavender sachet attached ~ I was so impressed I took a picture that you can see here.
Disclosure: I received this bedding set from Crane & Canopy to share my thoughts about it with you ~ No additional compensation was provided nor did I promise positive feedback. All opinions are my own and I really did love everything about this lovely bedding set…everything!

Wow - you picked a gorgeous color and pattern combo!! Love!!!! What a great system for keeping your duvet in place! Mine always ends up halfway down inside the cover! Thanks for sharing at Monday Funday 😀 Heather
Thanks so much, Heather! I'm glad it's not just me that has a wonky comforter...this duvet though is awesome. Everything stays perfectly in place.
