New Summer Bedding

Yesterday I made a trip to Target to pick up some shelving (another project I'm working on) and a lampshade for my thrift store lamp. While I was there, I went to visit some bedding I've wanted. It just jumped in the cart and came home with me!

Okay, so the truth is that I have really liked this for a while and I'd read that Shabby Chic would stay at Target but with Shabby Chic stores closing, I'm afraid that one day I'll go to Target and it will be gone without warning especially since the Targets near me don't have the best stock. This is what happened with the euroshams on my bed. I went back for one more and they were already gone. I didn't want to take a chance.

So, I took off the comforter that we aren't using and the white cotton blanket below. I hate that blanket because it gets pulls really easily and its too small to completely cover the sheet. Why is it that blankets are always too small?

I was afraid the coverlet might be too heavy, but was thinner than I expected once I opened it up and put it on the bed. I slept under it last night and it was just perfect! I wish I had more pictures but Blogger is giving me problems.

  3. I love it! I need new bedding and I'm going to check out Target. I got some of the Shabby Chic bedding in a different style a couple years ago for my daughter's old room and love that. I like this white. Very fresh and clean looking.

  4. Blogger was giving me problems with pictures today too!

    The SC line at Target is so pretty! I always stop to have a peak. It looks beautiful on your bed. I did read on RA blog that her line would continue at Target.

  5. I love the new bedding in your room. I really love your button pillow too! Like you, I worry that the Simply Shabby Chic line will disappear from Target as well. Poor Rachel. What an awful year for her.
