It's a little on the pricier side for me right now. But if you consider how expensive a random duvet cover is at Anthropologie or a department store, it's not that bad really. And we could use a bedroom makeover.<br /><br />I think I've decided to let it stew until the summer time (when we'll have some extra cash). That way I can think about the color choices too.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRRFUAfuL5-_po5VaphV5GS6CnfLMnPlwpvzoNTWkeJV-nNimeKF3KqDM8Cr6lMoUQRnihhQ1vtrTbY3LEEn_tOQai5TDEdtmNTKLmfY1prMtNFd3QEyx8RfLTzSWKmHIS97muIVgAzhA/s1600-h/colors.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5155965952369594162" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRRFUAfuL5-_po5VaphV5GS6CnfLMnPlwpvzoNTWkeJV-nNimeKF3KqDM8Cr6lMoUQRnihhQ1vtrTbY3LEEn_tOQai5TDEdtmNTKLmfY1prMtNFd3QEyx8RfLTzSWKmHIS97muIVgAzhA/s320/colors.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" /></a>
