on the hunt: sheets

March 1st, 2010

We desperately need new bedsheets. Our old ones are just that. Old. I’m bored of them. They are white on white stripe and nice enough, but I’m thinking I want a little color up in here.

Our walls are the lightest of the light purple – so light that you think it’s white until you look at it against the white trim.

Our rug is the Jackson Stripe

Our furniture is Farmhouse

I want to stay with something light to counteract the dark furniture and partial brick wall.

I am very into the grey and yellow combo but I’m having a hard time finding something that works. This is my current favorite set – Dwell Studio Draper Ash

But striped sheets with a striped rug? It won’t work.

I kind of like this set from Target but really do not need a duvet cover. Why do they have so many duvet cover options and no bedding options?

Other places I’ve looked are:

Garnet Hill

Pottery Barn (regular AND teen)

Restoration Hardware

Williams-Sonoma Home

The Company Store

Nordstrom

Macy’s

And the only semi-nice set I have found is this one from Martha Stewart Collection but they don’t have any sheets available online

But I don’t know if I like how it all goes together. Any other ideas on where I can look?

UPDATE: I kind of really like both of these at crate and barrel.

Thoughts?

Maybe I should just get white striped sheets. They have them EVERYWHERE.
