FEATURED: Organic Cotton Pintuck Duvet + Shams + Mongolian Lamb Pillow Cover
WHY IT WORKS: Inundated with color and pattern all day for her job as a freelance textile & print designer, Lesley loves the textures of her all white bedding. Check out how this she makes it work in her home in Taos, New Mexico…
I am addicted to my west elm bedding! I often think of buying another bed set from west elm to change it up every few months, but I love the set I have so much that I just can’t bring myself to buy another. I have the Pintuck Duvet and Shams, a few Mongolian Lambswool Pillows, a crocheted pillow and throw as well as a faux fur throw. I love how it creates a clean all white look with mixed textures. My husband and I are designers with somewhat different tastes and although he loves how the bedroom is decorated, I kind of claimed this room as my own decorating project.
I am a freelance textile designer/print studio owner and blogger, so I am super picky about fabric and patterns. I think I chose solid bedding because I stare at patterns all day, but the lambswool, pintucks and crochet add so much texture that it still looks interesting. It makes me feel like I am entering a luxury hotel room every time I go into my bedroom to relax. I love how the bedding looks with our amazing views of the mountains and snow in the background.

Don’t know how you get the bedding so “not wrinkly”. Mine is never that smooth even if I iron and my pin ticks continually rip!

Hey Chloe, Don’t iron the duvet. Put it in the dryer on a very low setting.Make sure you put the duvet back on the comforter immediately after pulling out of the dryer. It is better to get the wrinkles out with a longer, low heat than the quick blast of an iron.

Mine doesn’t wrinkle and I have 4 cats sleeping on it most of the time
Whenever I wash it, I put it in the dryer and then immediately put it the duvet back on the comforter. I am definitely NOT one to iron bedding, I like it easy! I was super afraid to get all white bedding, especially because of my cats, but I just throw it in the wash with some eco friendly gentle laundry detergent and a bit of oxy clean and it stays perfect. I have had this same bedding for almost two years now.
