So I did it.
I have purchased a comforter.Noone get your titties in an uproar - I got the SOLID plum. it reverses to a light rose purple. Which I might do in the summer. The pattern was too loud. And, since I truly live by Karma, the only one available at my local Sears in the Full/Queen was the solid. I did get a goot look at the pattern, and it's not me.
Now I'm not sure if I like the sheets, although the pattern "plum Striate" looks pretty nice. I DO like the matching plum shams, which I can see in the piccies, but they don't appear to be at all available just now. Which is fine since I can barely afford the comforter. I decided to buy it as it was on sale, and I want to see it on my bed. And it's yummy on my bed. I couldn't get the matching bedskirt, but they also have a black pattern, which is available in a SOLID BLACK bedskirt. I'm thinking I'm getting that, so as to match the bed, and the rest of my room.
In addition I FINALLY found a cover for my body pillow. It's a slightly darker plum. I love my pillow but it's green, and it's older. I need some fluff to stuff into it, to firm it up some, but otherwise it's a good pillow. And now it's a lovely yummy 220+ count purple. We'll see how well it works tonight.
Once I'm sure I'm keeping the comforter, I need to take it to the laundromat and wash the stiffness out of it. But I want to make sure it's staying. It wasn't cheap, although it's not to the extent of the other set.
In addition to this, I saw a really cute deep purple with a darker purple pattern sheet set. Softer side of Sears for sure! Anyway, once I can afford it I'm going to get a couple of different items, so I can change with my whims. But I like the idea of matching everything, and I really want those shams now!
Ok, enough babbling, I need to make some dinner.
