What do you do around your house when Spring hits? Washingtonian.com asked me and several other DC-area bloggers this question and, for me, it seems to change every year, but I consistently feel an urge to pretty-up my surroundings around this time. Spring feels like the most feminine season to me.
This year, I'm seriously (seriously) craving girly bedding. Monograms, scallops, embroidery, etc. When it gets just a tad warm in our house, I want to kick off all the duvets and blankets and recently I've wanted to also replace everything with something sweet and delicate.
And I just found an awesome source for bedding the other day in the form of a catalog (sidenote: I love getting random catalogs in the mail and discovering a new-to-me source). Check out this gorgeous bedding from Schweitzer Linen:
It's so pretty and most of the sets come in a range of colors. The price points are still a bit high like other luxury linen brands, but I like that they offer their pieces individually - this lets you buy just shams or maybe just a top sheet that you can then mix in with more affordable pieces. I'm saving my pennies for a scalloped king-size sham that I will use as a center boudoir pillow on my guest bed.
Their website is a little cumbersome to navigate, so I would suggest starting with their catalog, which you can download online (link at the bottom of the home page). And don't forget to check out what other lovely bloggers had to say about Spring in their own homes.
So, what do you do to usher in this season?

Oh boy is that fun! I have wanted some fantastic monogrammed stuff from Leontine for a while now, but I cant seem to bite the bullet on it ($$). Is this stuff just as pricey? LOVE IT!

Lovely, that's the perfect blue too!
ReplyDeleteI went to their site but could not get the catalog. Something was up with it, wasn't working for me.
ReplyDeleteOdd...I updated the post so that the link is to their home page, and you can find a link for the catalog at the bottom of the page.
