A few weeks ago, Melanie shared the link of the blog Young House Love with me. It's a blog about a couple who do DIY house projects on their own home. Before they took on blogging as a full time job, they also created mood boards for readers. I was particularly inspired by one mood board.
Something about the mood board really caught me. It already incorporated many of the elements we already have in our bedroom - the dark wood furniture, the curtains. But what I really liked was the natural look of the pillows and rug. I started thinking that I would really like to bring that look into our bedroom. I figured the easiest way to accomplish that would be through pillows and bedding.
Of course, most of the pillows and quilts I found that I liked were from Pottery Barn and were a bit more than I would like to pay. Plus, Jason likes the fluffy duvet so I had to figure out a way I could bring in the quilts and pillows and still use a duvet. I knew our big brown bedding wasn't going to cut it, so I started keeping my eyes open for a plain ivory duvet set. That way, at some point when we find affordable quilts and pillows that fit the bill, we can just throw them on top.
Last weekend at Target, I found the following duvet set on clearance - marked down from $99 to $24. What a steal! I wasn't really looking for anything with the block pattern, but for $24 I think it will work. Plus, it is uber soft. Like, we're talking luxury hotel soft.

Now, I'll just need to be on the lookout for a quilt and pillows.
