Hi Rhoda! I’m a blog reader, and I regularly read your blog…love, love your blog. I think you are use to seeing a solid color on most of the bed, and are getting used to seeing pattern, it is an adjustment….I think that placing a solid color blanket or throw or quilt, folded at the end of the bed would be nice. Sincerely, Karen

Rhoda it’s simply lovely and does not scream country at all except for the matching pillow shams. The spread it’s self was a lovely choice. You could still take the creamy colored matelasse pillow shams and use them, that is if the new spread is creamy. Other than that….it’s all Lovely!

So glad you made a decision you are feel good about and with which the hubby agrees.

Did you try a lint brush for the pilling? I also rub a wool sock on it first, then use a lint roller. Somehow the combo works for picking up pilling.

I can’t wait to see what you find in the future. Pottery Barn has a ton of their linens on sale right now- not quite Home Goods cheap, but gorgeous!

Merry Christmas, Rhoda!

Your room is lovely…so elegant and relaxing. I liked the matelasse better as well…one thing to keep in mind is the “white sales” many retailers put on in January…I’m sure you’ll find something you can’t live without for a super price!

Rhoda, if you are not loving it, then back it goes. I personally like it but I like the french country look…I have white duvet cover that was given to me, but afraid to use it, lol..we are still unpacking from our move 6 months ago so it’s in a box..I think I might try it out for spring and summer and add some interesting pillows to set it off..
Your home is lovely and do what makes your heart sing!
Merry Christmas to you, hubby and your family!

I really like it. Love the blue and white and how they have used all the designs together.

Hey Rhoda,

From one decorator to the other, you totally made the right decision. I’m not country either. I love the “minimalist” style of the matelasse coverlet over the floral. I’m sure you will stumble over something perfect!

Merry Christmas!

You crack me up, Rhoda! I live in fear of my house looking “country” because I can’t stand that cutesy-country look. You have such a beautiful home and I just love to browse through your pictures.

Merry Christmas!
