I’m always on the lookout for good affordable modern duvets. Last year my wife and I bought an orange and white one (ANDREA KAKEL) from Ikea for $20. While I will be the first to admit that the quality wasn’t the highest (low thread count) we have been quite satisfied with it. [...]

This may be old news to some, but it looks like Dwell Studio is releasing a complete line of bedding, kitchen accessories and baby goods at Target soon. While I was excited about all of these different lines, I was most impressed with the pricing on the baby stuff. I’m not sure if [...]

We have bought and received many blankets since our son was born, and I have learned to be a bit of a blanket snob. The ones that we like the best are nice and big, so it’s easy to swaddle him, and not too thick, so he doesn’t have a heat stroke. This [...]

I have featured items from Motif Modern Living before. Their slogan is “Modern Style, Modest Price” and I have to admit that they have a pretty good selection of affordable modern housewares that I haven’t seen elsewhere. Take for example this Single Flower Duvet and Sham. For only $79 you can [...]

We did not find out ahead of time the sex of our baby, but wanted to have the room mostly completed before the birth. We wanted a simple, modern baby room that complimented the rest of our home. The furniture is from www.milliondollarbaby.com and with the help of my aunt we designed the [...]

I have always loved EQ3. Besides Ikea, they are one of the few “modern” companies that consistently make good looking stuff at a good price. This Hexagon Duvet set is a great example. While the 210 thread count is not the greatest, the design is nice, and you can get a queen [...]

I may have mentioned it before, but my wife and I have been looking for a duvet for a while now. We have been using a off white one that we got from Ikea before we were married, and it’s starting to look a little blah. There are of course plenty of duvets [...]

Ikea and Shycast have teamed up to have a contest about making your bed. Applicants can submit a video under five minutes that shows a creative or different way that they make their bed. The grand prize is a $5,000 gift certificate to Ikea. As far as I can tell, videos are [...]

My wife and I were dreaming about our addition last night, and looking through all the catalogues that have been piling up around our house lately. We got to The Company Store catalogue, and we were both impressed with the Hexagon Sheets. 250 thread count and 100% combed cotton means that they are [...]

I have been looking for a duvet for a long time now to replace our aging Ikea one. Seeing this bedding set, almost made me wish I needed a comforter instead of a duvet. This bed in a bag set includes a comforter, flat sheet, fitted sheet, two standard pillowcases and two sham [...]
