Nesting With Grace

Lola’s New Bedding- Seasonal Bedding Idea

When we moved into this house I used a mixture of bedding I had collected over the years to make Lola’s bed. It turned out really cute, but now some of it isn’t looking too great. I had the the duvet cover for 5 years, it was in our Connecticut primary bedroom. While I loved that duvet cover, it was falling apart. And after some research sheets, similar thickness to a duvet cover, are expected to last about two years before you might want to consider replacing them. While a duvet insert will last you 15 years (I have had one about that long and it still looks good!). Her thin Target quilt was stretching out in areas too, comforters and quality quilts can last a really long time too, 15+ years! Needless to say, it was time to upgrade a few things on Lola’s bed! And she was very excited.

Lola’s Bedroom-

While this easily could be a “spring look”, it is going to be her bedding for a good long while! If you are looking to do seasonal bedding, some of the bedding we put on her bed you might like for a fun seasonal change!
First of all I thought this was a really fun oversized pillow, front and center! Which is actually just a king sham (she has a queen bed). I used this pretty white velvet king sham, with two king inserts inside, this sham (which is a favorite and normally fine alone, but I wanted it extra full) and one of these (which is pretty flat on there own, not my favorite insert, but worked with two).
I fell in love with these Plaid Euro Shams, just swapping out your largest pillows is a great way to change pillows seasonally! (I used these Euro Inserts (Firm)– My go-to Euro Insert. I say this all the time, but the right inserts make the bed!!! 
These Floral Cotton Sheets, the pattern just screams spring! They remind me of vintage, cottage bedding and will look great in her room all year! I basically have the same recipe for making a bed, sheets, quilt, duvet and pillows. This quilt is a great one, not to heavy, fun pattern and really soft.
Cute little ladybug pillow is older, but adds a fun playful vibe!
Since Lola’s duvet cover was falling apart I swapped it to a similar linen style duvet. I LOVE linen on beds, it just looks lived in and comfy! I have used this duvet cover often, it is a go-to. Sweet little eyelet detail with flange. She already had this Duvet Insert, which has held up beautifully and makes the bed look extra fluffy!
First and not shown, I always start with a mattress pad. This one is cooling and has a little padding is the best! 
Lola really loves the simple changes we made to her bedding! She does make her bed every morning before coming down to breakfast. She loved how I styled it, so I walked her through how I did it and she can easily duplicate.

    Beautiful room! I will be checking out that new bedding. Do you remember where you got the bird and celestial garland hanging across her window?
