Do you have flowery bed covers on your bed? If you do I promise not to hold anything against you..... but i hate flowery duvet covers. I have a bold black and white pint on my bed covers and curtains to match. I really want bright red walls as well ...... no haven't got round hubby get! What sort of bed covers have you got on your bed?

I have a cream satin throw with pillowcases to match and also a cream furry rug with two furry cushions. My walls are painted ivory and I have the same colour courtains. Just to take away from all the ivory and cream, I have a mint green bedside lamp and I have various colourful pictures on the walls.

Well, I bought most of the stuff for my last house when I was trying to sell it, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered. No point in leaving it lying in the presses now, I might just as well use it.

Nope, no flowery sheets. Nothing agsint them, they are just not my style. I have plane sheets and a duvet cover in a variety of plain colours. My husband and I both love plain colours. The set I'm using right now is a set of light blue sheets, dark blue pillow cases, and a navy blue duvet cover.

Can't just have plain as we sit on the bed after tea and use our bedroom as a up stairs sitting room

don't you think red has to much energy for the bedroom? I have a quilt with orange, green, blue and charcole squares and an autumn leaf boarder. I made this and my daughter did the hand sewing, it's for a king size bed and looks wonderful with oak furniture. Red walls would go well but I think gold is better for the bedroom.

I don't know, but red is my fave colour and think it would go nice with the black and white. Your quilt sounds really nice, wish I could see it

Hi Anne18 and how are we this evening? My duvet covers are blue and stripey on one side and checkered on the other, y'know the cheap ones from Argos. But I have some lovely bright orange curtains which I love!

Hi there I'm fine, took son to footy match and our team won, we had three goals to there one goal. We used to have blue before i brought the black and white ones. We aslo had matching curtains as well. I think ours came from argos, many years ago as we had them for years and our black/white ones we have had for about four years. They are wearing so well.

I prefer either plain white or linen with a small pale green or blue pattern. Years ago I bought a gazillion old estate linen sheets & pilowcases with beautiful old padded monograms. (Not my initials but so fancy they could be a pattern). They were all yellow when I bought them but they cleaned up as white as snow. I LOVE those sheets and pillowcases and they have held up really well. That linen will be around in a hundred years and still look great.

Oh no, I have no flowery covers. Like you I cannot stand them. I have a black and white one and a brown one, although the brown one is getting on my nerves so I may have to invest in another one.

I have a plain blue comforter. My husband really hates the flower look. I don't like it either. We are pretty plain people I guess. I love our comforter though because it's so soft and comfy!
