Or is it a bit too much?

I feel the need to treat my bedroom this spring Smile

Or is this one better?

Really sorry, but they all burn my eyes.

I like white bed linen so that I can wash on a hot wash with bleach and not worry about any colour fade

Each to their own

Oh sod you daily, I was on a spend free month but I think I have to order yours, I love it!

jimmybae · 23/03/2018 23:41

I like the second set alot!

PerfectlyDone · 23/03/2018 23:48

ACHICA are doing 1000 thread count hotel linen quite cheaply priced just now for anybody who is interested - I might get a white sheet.
All the hotel bed linen promotions they do have quite regularly alway feature v neutral colours only

No fake patchwork, only real patchwork.

Filzma · 24/03/2018 05:54

@frasier the colours are amazing!! I'd buy the woodland one in a heartbeat.

Slartybartfast · 24/03/2018 06:12

oh no, to all

Vitalogy · 24/03/2018 06:32

Nothing wrong with either, just not my taste. There's always a good selection in Dunelm if you're still searching OP.
I tried looking for an online TKMaxx the other week but couldn't find one Confused

No fake patchwork, only real patchwork.

Yes, I actually agree with that.

Thanks for further ideas Smile

The woodlands one ir gorgeous, just a bit too figurative for me , I think.

I like the first one. I do like patchwork! It's a little bright for me, but I still like it :-)

Megatron · 24/03/2018 07:26

I'm not keen on either of the first two, but I'm quite boring if I'm honest.

But, there are some really snippy comments on here, with the 'if you must' (eh?) and the ubiquitous 'tacky' comment. I'm not sure how a duvet cover can be tacky (it's only a duvet cover) unless it's covered in red sequins with giant cocks all over it but there you go ...

Some folks just don't know how.to offer an opinion without trying to make the other person feel ridiculous for even contemplating such an abomination. 😂

cindersrella · 24/03/2018 07:31

I like the first!

PerfectlyDone · 24/03/2018 07:36

Oh, I am quite happy to be told that my tastes are ridiculous! Grin
I know they are, but I am aiming for 'colourful' and 'bright', not 'insane' and 'needs to be locked up'.

All opinions welcome Smile

I have plenty of white and neutral bed linen, this set is to be nod to my old self for the bed that I am now sleeping in on my own as STBXH left me after 20 years of marriage and I may be overcompensating trying to find my old/young crazy self again Smile

I’m sorry I don’t like either - they look far too studenty to me. However, I prefer plain bedding with cushions / throws to add some interest.

insancerre · 24/03/2018 07:48

I don't like any of them
But, I'm a firm believer in ignoring everyone else and buying what you like

TheImprobableGirl · 24/03/2018 07:50

I really love the second and think that colour is fab 😁 may as well use colourful bed linen! I’d buy it in a heartbeat but I am a little alarmed that it doesn’t come with pillowcases... will definitely read small print in all duvets from now on

TheImprobableGirl · 24/03/2018 07:52

laredoute has some interesting ones

First one is much better. I like that one. The second one is ice cream.

That aside.....TKMaxx has a website.....what! I never knew.

madeyemoodysmum · 24/03/2018 08:08

I don't like either. They look like. 90s duvets. Sorry

PerfectlyDone · 24/03/2018 08:09

I think I like the idea of buying some Really Expensive much more Reasonably Priced from TKMaxx because I am hoping for much better quality without the £££ price tag.

Still not clicked 'buy' on anything....

This might be a good post split up 'fuck you, I'll have whatever I like' statement then.Grin
