Although I love making decorative beds with neatly placed counterpanes and pillows every so often I get the urge to make a bed that I can imagine cuddling up into...a cosy, snuggly bed. This bed is one of those...a dreamy jumble of soft white sheets, the kind your legs get tangled in, and large, plump white pillows that your head would just sink into. A little luxury in the form of a silk comforter, quilted and bordered, and a heavy white embroidered throw. The sheets are trimmed with broderie anglais and the pillows with embroidered bands. The rose pillows add little accents of colour and give a country feel to the design.
I couldn't resist adding a small chest with an embroidered runner. Only the top drawer has been 'filled' allowing you to add your own special bits and pieces. Although the top has been left for you to add your own accessories I will be happy to dress it upon request.
