If one look at your daughter’s old bedding makes you want to add comforters and sheets to a shopping list, you need reliable resources to cut your shopping time. Below are some sources and tips I would like to share with you. I hope you will find them helpful.
Choose color first.
When it comes to bedding for girls, color is the first thing to think about. Color schemes for the bedding will influence other color choices in the room.
Here are some tips on choosing color:
1. Clip pictures to a board or a tablet.
2. Use Mood Boards to amuse her with pretty photos of furniture and accessories from the web.
3. Get inspired by the paint companies’ idea books, such as Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams.
Set limit to a couple of bedding options only.
Admire many pictures but show your girl only a couple of images to choose from to avoid confusion. Most people, even those with good color sense get overwhelmed with too many choices.
Think about your overall color scheme in your home.
Choose her bedding to work with what you already have. This does not mean matching. You can work with contrast or complimentary colors instead. For example, if the walls of your bedroom are a teal color that goes with brown and gold bedding, purple in your girl’s room will look pretty and fresh.
Here are five resources for bedding for girls:
1. Cuddledown.
Cuddletown’s story goes back to 1973. The name comes from their mission to make all things cozy. They started by just making one product, their trademark: down comforters. At first they sold down comforters directly to their friends. These were the days of the first energy crisis and high oil prices which made heating for your home very expensive. Down comforters were new to New Englanders, but it didn’t take long for people to catch on to just how cozy and efficient they are. The company has high quality bedding. Some products are more expensive but you can find many bargains and sales.
