My Obession

My search for the perfect duvet cover,

It's been 3 years....3 YEARS since I began my search. What have I been searching for you ask? What have I been so obsessed with. What has exhausted me to the point I cry once a year because I can't find it? "The prefect duvet." I have been looking for this resplendent, illusive duvet cover since before Christopher asked me to marry him. If you didn't know this now you do: My passion is bedding; down comforters, goose down pillows, 1000 count Egyptian cotton, and memory foam. When I decided to get married all I asked for were sheets. Christopher thought he'd break me of my habit, he thought he could change me. But he was wrong, and now guess who steals all my comfy pillows and hogs my comfy blanket, ...Chrisssssssss. When I met him he didn't know what satin was. And now he can't sleep with out a foam bed and 4 down pillows. But my search for perfection has gotten to a dangerous point. I Can't search any more so I am posting some of my favorites and if you would pity me and tell me which one is the prettiest i would be SO appreciate it.

Also I need an option, is yellow and grey too trendy? It can't be too trendy ....since it's impossible to find.





the last photo is one one Chris wants. ....
I've been searching a long time, is it too much to ask for a duvet cover with fabric flowers, embroidered birds, and watercolor designs? If anyone finds that it would be amazing. preferably grey, white,yellow,and blue. PLEASE HELP. if I can't find one I will have to make one.....

  6. oh i like the birds, but the yellow patterned one in the middle row is a sneaky way to compromise with chris. it's a little bit more subdued but then you can turn around and buy a bunch of ribbon watercolour flowery pillows
