And yes, that is a complete ode to one of my favorite clips of all time:
Which Duvet is Best? Psst- In case you are in the market for a new duvet, or maybe you are just curious–here’s the other five that make up the bottom half of our top ten. I think they are rad. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Our wood grain Shaker cabinet fronts were designed for busy, high-traffic homes like ours. Clad with durable textured thermofoils, this line is compatible with Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgon, and Besta cabinets from IKEA. It's the perfect, practical way to add the warmth of wood to all the rooms of your home.
We have teamed up with Loloi to create a line of rugs that are as affordable as they are beautiful. This collection houses a great mix of traditional and modern rugs, in cottage-y colorways, as well as vintage-inspired beauties that you’ll want to roll out in every room.
We partnered with Stuga on a line of hardwood floors — The Ingrid is really livable, and the color is very neutral. It doesn’t lean warm or cool, it’s that just right in-between. We have really loved putting it everywhere in our house. It’s the best jumping-off point for design, no matter your interior style. In addition to being beautiful, Ingrid is really durable — we have three kids, and we always have a home construction project going on. Ingrid stands up to it all.

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]

Oh my word. Missy. You are right! Hahaha. Why are we holding onto those?!
Totally LOVING #2.
I love the word, meh. It totally makes sense and you know exactly how the person says it too. I can tots see Chris saying, “meh.” hahaha!
I have no idea what to do for paint color if you went with #2. But I think it gives you lots of fun vibrant color options seeing as though it IS in the basement, you want it to brighten the room and not feel like a basement room.
4 reminds me of the paint-splattered walls! Ha!
Well I voted for 2, but I am madly in love with 4 as well. I just think for a windowless basement room the branches would be a bit dark. Plus you want a pop of color, and that turquoise swirl is just awesome.
Hmm, now I want new bedding!
I voted, but honestly, not crazy about any. They mostly seem busy and like something you will grow tired of quickly. Keep looking!
I am so jealous! I looked all over for teal covers before my weddings and did not find near the amazing ones you have! They are all super cute
Hahaha. Yes. Several people have said that. I honestly didn’t pick up on it until a previous commenter mentioned that it did. Eh well. Let’s just say we wanted to keep you on your toes!
Ok number 4 looks like the wall you’re trying to get RID of!
#1 and #3 are timeless stripes, and you could make an impact with paint color. #2 and #5 are bold and would fit well with your house/style. #4 looks like the paint splatter. So… my vote is for any of them except 4. :) It’s a smart choice to pick out bedding and paint color at the same time… wise mama!
Funny. Maybe so. I wish they were all just the duvet with a white background so we would be less biased. I was most drawn to the room in number 1 actually!
I went for 2… but I think it’s winning because the room is the most eye-popping.
Oh yeah. Love 8! 6 was actually at the top of my list, but Chris is not goin’ for it. There are so many great options!!
ok i voted but i just looked at the other choices and have to say my fav. went from #5 to # 8! you could do a lot with it and it was stunning but wow the price! Catrina David
i love both 2 and 5! #5 a little more than 2. i also thought # 4 looked like the splatter walls! #3 i thought was alittle like dorm bedding. so that is what i think but i am sure whatever you do will be great b/c you have an amazing eye for all this! good luck!!!!
Ditto. Don’t love 4 at all!
I couldn’t vote for two so I’m here to tell you I voted for 5 and would also add 3. I love that 5 is vibrant but also has enough white to make the design not so overwhelming. And stripes are always a classic, you could do some really cool art/curtains/other decor that wouldn’t work in a room with a busier duvet, but would pop with stripes. Good luck. SO FUN!!!
Ohh man, now that you said that I totally see it…..
Noted. Thanks, Gina!
Whoops. I clicked on F but meant to vote for number five. Beautiful colors with great design!
