I want a beautiful bedspread for Christmas

[KatyMac]

Well it's for DH & I - but I get to pick!!

Currently my bedroom is green & cream & birch coloured wood......but I might change it for the right bedspread
& my bedding is cream & deep red, which is why I need the bedspread

I hate the shiny satin ones & ones with hard bits/sequins embroidered on

So where should I be looking?

[MrsLettuce]

What sort of price range and how important si its warmth?

[Bambi75]

Notonthehighstreet have a big selection from lots of different boutique retailers

Otherwise worth trying:

Zara home
Feather & black
Dunelm mill

[myrtleWilson]

Laura Ashley have some nice bedspreads....

We recently redecorated in muted grey and I have simple plain linen and a handmade throw

Scatter of cushions. Got the curtains in Dunhelm dorma emilio. Really luxurious quality.

I've succumb to asking for one from Melin Tregwynt for Christmas - lusted after one for years!

They've got some beautiful ones in your colours

Sorry I fell asleep - I was home after a busy month running DD to auditions!

Warmth is not really important but if it's warm I can reduce the tog of my quilt as it's a layered one

I'll look at those suggestions thanks

[KatyMac]

I particularly like:

green
Purple
reddish
another

but they look very wool & I'm not sure if they would make me itch

[KatyMac]

Needanewsofa what sort of wool are they - how do they feel?

[WhereIsMyHat]

How about orla kiely, do you like her prints?

The white company do gorgeous bedding. I love white bedding.

[KatyMac]

Not the ones I found on her website - but thanks for the idea

[KatyMac]

I also like this

& I can see the others I like (or similar) at John Lewis so I can see if they feel nice

[Twinklestein]

I don't know what colour green your bedroom is - this is more minty:

Greengate

[KatyMac]

No - it's much duller than that - but I like this from that website

YY to Melin Tregwynt. I have one of their gorgeous throws on my bed. It's gone really quite soft with use (think it was a bit stiffer when new but as it's on top of the duvet it never mattered)

[Needanewsofa]

It's beautiful wool woven in their original mill next door to their shop between St David's and Fishguard. We used to holiday nearby all the time when I was little and I've been lusting after one for about 30 years now. Very excited to be getting this for Christmas!!!!!

JL do their cushions so if a local branch has some you could always check the weave and wool out there.

[KatyMac]

Thanks I'll look

Check out dawsons linen online. They do great discounts on big brand names. I got kingsize dorma bedspread (very much like cath kidston) for £25, also a really nice Victoria and Albert one with matching cushions.

[KatyMac]

Thanks - but I've decided to put my spare money towards sending DD away to school
