Now I love white in a bedroom, equating it with warmth, brightness, spring and summer.
I keep four white, electrified candles in the windows all year long as a sign of welcome.
They come on automatically at sundown and go off at dawn!
Come spring and everything gets put away until fall.
Out comes a collection of white pillows and pillow slips that I purchased on estate and yard sale jaunts.
Got some pretty ones.
The main coverlet is made out of one of my favorite fabrics---matelasse.
It has such a nice raised pattern and washes like a dream.Matelasse is a French word, by the way, that means quilted.
The bedroom should have a romantic look and the one in this post does. Check out the old-fashioned lampshade.
That was a Salvation Army Family Thrift Store purchase.
Best part, since all of the spreads, sheets and pillow slips have already been purchased, giving the bed a new look didn't cost a dime!
The final look is serene and pretty, don't you think?

Honestly I don't, But yours is so beautiful Susan. I love the all white. And the candles. I am trying to see where your bed backs up to in the room. Love, sandie
Yours white linens are so dreamy... I usually change the cover on our duvet too. Have a great weekend!
Oh, just so pretty. No, I don't change my bedroom, but now I wish I did.
I have a beautiful patchwork quilt in shades of pink and blue (small patchwork) but I once had a white eyelet bedspread and curtains with white pillows. I loved that look. Yours is very pretty.
Your white bed looks cool and calming. Already the heat sneaks in here...the white invites one to rest and avoid the sweat!
I don't change the look in the spring, but enjoy my white bedspread all year long. In the winter, I am more likely to use deeper colored throw pillows, sometimes changing them more regularly with seasons.
Your white bedroom is lovely!
Love all the white. I do try to put lighter covers on my bed in the Spring. Happy day sweet friend. Hugs, Linda
I absolutely love white bedding! I have a matelasse coverlet on my bed, too, and I love it. I'd live in a completely white home, if it was practical. With my bunch, though, that's just not happening.
