Another decision.
Because it is a platform bed, a bedspread wouldn't do. We had to look for a comforter. We looked high and low at Target, Walmart, Macy's, Ross, Sears. Art and I just couldn't agree on anything. We wanted to keep our Master bedroom simple. Very simple. We finally found a comforter we could live with but it was dry clean only. When I checked around at all the dry cleaners in the area, they said it would cost between $35.00 and $55.00 to clean a king comforter. And I really would like to clean it before we use it so we decided to think about this some more.
Ummmmm...
Well gigi-hawaii just happened to do a post about choosing a bed covering. I wrote a comment about our problem and somebody came out with a great idea. A duvet cover! I never considered doing a duvet because it's so hot in Hawaii. The thought of down would make me sweat.
Well, I went to Ross and found washable polyester comforters that I could use with a duvet cover. The comforters were only between $29.00 - $39.00. Not bad.
Then I saw this duvet cover on Overstock.com. I liked it. Art liked it. Normally, it costs an arm and a leg to have things shipped to Hawaii. However, since we plan to be in California soon, I can have it shipped there and bring it home to Hawaii with us.
That's the beauty of blogging. There are so many great minds out there to help you think outside of the box... or covers, so to speak.
