I just ordered a down comforter for our bed (we’ve only been married 17 years, it is our first one) and now we have to find a duvet cover – any suggesetions?
Hi Mimi, I have found some really lovely duvet covers at Fortunoff’s and Target (the Shabby Chic collection at Target has some quaint, very pretty, selections).
Recently while shopping at Fortunoffs I saw some pretty spring/summer quilts. I bought one to use next year (it was on an end of season sale, so it was a great price).

Oh, the picture of Raquel Welch is an old picture. I think she still looks great for her age. 🙂
Ooooh, thanks for the tips! I’m off to look.
I do have to admit, Dh isn’t so into the Shabby Chic, so I may have to forgo that line, sigh. I love it, though.
You can buy duvet covers on ebay>> great prices!!Tuesday Morning is great too
A clean comfy bed is a good thing. I prefer lighter colors like white and earth tones like light grey and green rather than dark colors for the bed spread
Sometimes I put a few drops of lavender essential on on my mattress. It gives the whole bed a soft, calming fragrance and helps you sleep well.
Do you truly want to slip into ‘hotel’ luxury each night? Put the fitted sheet on your bed, stretched tightly across your mattress. Then fold the top sheet in half, lengthwise and iron it on a high cotton setting, using a spray bottle to wet the sheet first. Iron the sheet without putting a crease in the center, just go right to the center edge and stop (we want no creases). It is incredible how amazing it feels against your skin.
