Bed Linens

[Anonymous]

We're finally upgrading our bedroom from the 'graduate school chic' that we had going on for many years to 'gainfully employed adults.' Finally getting a queen bed, so we need new sheets/blankets/comforter too.

I'm having a terrible time finding a comforter that says, "put together grown ups live here." Anyone have some ideas of where to look? This is the bed we're getting, if it helps: http://www.cb2.com/dondra-bed/f7665

These are some that I sort of like, but they're not quite right I don't think:

Thanks!

I would browse the sales in Macy's and Bloomingdales home departments in store. You can pick up some really lovely bed sheets at a fraction of the original sales price.

Agree with Macy's and Bloomingdales.

OP, I like you - I hate that so many people think that being "grownup" means neutral and solid colors. Props to you for wanting some color!

Check out The Company Store and Crate & Barrel.

That's a lovely bed- would love to have just the headboard.

Thanks guys! You've given me some places to start. We do love color - I can't stand a drab bedroom. I need it to be bright (not beach house bright, but at least some color).
