covetousness and home geeking

[mountain_laurel]

so flipping through the Brylane Home catalog today, i stumbled across this coverlet and shams. the picture in the print catalog does it more justice; it really is a lovely fabric. and i am lusting after it. it would look fabulous in my bedroom. it's also machine-washable, and not being an overstuffed comforter, would actually fit in the washers in the basement so i wouldn't have to make a special trip to the laundromat every couple of weeks.

of course i can't afford it. even cheap king-size bedding is expensive. and i'm not going to buy it, because other great bedding will come along someday when i can afford it, and i don't really need it right this minute; the comforter set i have is getting a bit threadbare and has an ink stain on it, but it's still fairly attractive.

but it sure is pretty.

you can always put it on the guest bed when you find something else for your bed... :)

I splurged a while back on a duvet cover that was WAY expensive at Pottery Barn. But I like it, and am enjoying the hell outta it. :D

Plus, being a coverlet, you can just take it off the duvet and its fairly easy to wash... just stuffing the duvet back is a pain in the arse.
