What Kind of Bed Maker Are You?

FREE IMAGES As much as I love to say that I am a great bed maker, I tend to to not always be the best at it! Here are a few bed making personalities I tend to lean towards:

The Comfy But Pretty look. You partially made it, but let's be honest, you just want it to be easy to get back into when the time comes!

The Everything Has A Place look. You do it every morning, its part of your routine and you make sure it's picture perfect ready every time!

The It's My Bed And I'll Do What I Want or don't do anything look. It's a bed! Why make it when you are getting right back in?

The Tidy, Clean, & Simple look. You like it polished and clean. You border on the line of minimalistic but also love a hint of character.

The Pillow Happy look. There's no such thing as too many pillows, and you like them in mix matching styles as well! After all, who doesn't love jumping in a pile of pillows?

The Let's Do This Later look. Who said the bed had to be made? It looks better folded in a pile anyway!

Here are five decorating mantra's to live by that I found off of Pinterest and couldn't resist sharing!

1. The closer something is to your body, the better it should be. This argues for fine sheets and cheap drapes!

2. Surround yourself with quality, not clutter. Buy it once, buy it right!

3. Every room needs something living: flowers, goldfish, a pet.

4. Honor the acts of daily living. If it's a habit, make it beautiful!

Sweet Dreams: Parachute Bedding

FREE IMAGES I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to try out some new luxe bed linens by Parachute.  I have to say, they are quite divine, and they will not suck your piggy bank dry.  When I first opened my box from parachute,  my first two thoughts were "wow they are super soft," and "I love the color."

The product I received was their signature bedding set, The Venice, in their ash color.  The Venice includes a fitted sheet, duvet cover, and 2 pillowcases.  It also comes to you in a thoughtfully designed bundle (see below).

The sheets are a really nice balance of crispness and suppleness, which makes for great reading in bed and a nice temperature that isn't too cold when you first slide in bed.  The bedding is made with high quality cotton and manufactured in Italy.

No, I don't iron my sheets.

Below are some professional photos from the Parachute site that show off the product much better than mine.

If you are looking for some fresh bedding for spring, I would definitely consider Parachute.  See and learn more at parachutehome.com
