If you’ve been following along for a while, you’ll know that I get the itch to change up the rooms in my home every so often. It’s not always a major change like new furniture or new paint, sometimes something as simple as switching up the bedding can completely transform a room.
I do have a confession to make, though. This post was originally meant to be a bedding refresh for our guest room in anticipation of the holidays. But when the Serena & Lily bedding that I chose arrived, I could not part with it. I mean, look at it!
I love keeping the feeling in here light and bright, especially since the bed itself is quite dark. The beautiful white duvet cover and sheets, paired with the french blue of the quilt and shams really speaks to my blue-loving heart!
My bedroom is my retreat – my place to relax after a long day and pretty much the only place in my home where I can get some peace and quiet. So it’s important to me that I’m as comfortable as I possibly can be in my bed. With these sheets from Serena & Lily, you’ll think you’re at a 5 star hotel. I’ve never felt anything so soft in my life. The little ruffle detail on sheet and the pillowcases is so pretty, too!
On those chilly New England nights that are in the not-so-distant future, I’ll be thankful for the beautiful quilt that I can pull up under my chin and get extra snuggly with.
I love a plain white duvet cover because you can accent it with other colors and completely change the look. I opted for this particular duvet because I love how the fringe detail adds some texture to an otherwise simple cover.
Did you notice that the bench that we had at the end of our bed is gone? I kept stubbing my toe on it because of the clearance between it and the chair, so I just got rid of it. The room looks so much bigger now, too!
And of course, my favorite little dip-dyed stool (that usually lives next to our bathtub) makes an appearance just because it’s so cute!
Finally, can we take a moment to appreciate the amazing foliage right outside my window? It’s so hard to photograph but every afternoon that sugar maple bathes my entire bedroom in the brightest yellow light. It’s absolutely stunning!
Lastly, a big thank you goes to Serena & Lily for providing the bedding for my unplanned bedroom refresh! Sorry guest room, maybe next time!
I’m in love with your new blue and white bedding and completely understand why you decided to keep it for yourself. I would do the same in the blink of an eye. :) Blue tones feel so soothing and calming and remind me of a sea at dawn. With this bedding, your room looks much brighter and peaceful, the perfect place for unwinding after a long day. :)
