Three Sheets To The Wind

Not me – my new sheets on the clothesline!  I’m trying to be proactive this week and get my Pink Saturday post ready earlier than usual.  I bought the prettiest embroidered linen set on Ebay that just happened to have the prettiest pink flowers and our initial!  Lucky for me they had the R or there would have been some competition.

I got 4 of these monogrammed shams plus one small pillow sham.  Last year we bought an electropedic bed – most comfortable bed I’ve ever had.  It’s a split king (like two twins) with temperpedic mattresses and you can raise and lower the head and foot of the bed and it has a massage feature.  It’s just fabulous for watching television.  The only problem is…I need two twin fitted sheets and a king flat sheet.  Rather than pay $250 for a set made specifically for this bed – I’ve been on a quest buying separates and guess what?  Almost all sheets are sold in sets now.  So I found the fitted white sheets at WalMart sold individually.

And this “set” on ebay which consisted of the 5 shams, one king size flat sheet, and a top sheet/coverlet.  And I got them for…get this $24! I don’t think they were ever used either.  This is with the coverlet….

and this is with the flat sheet

They look wonderful with these Rachel Ashwell shams.

I’m joining Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday along with some really interesting blogs who don’t air their dirty laundry! So be sure and stop by.

  2. GORGEOUS!!

    Now that I have your attention.......I was talking about those sheets and shams and the entire package! Wow! You make our bedroom look so ..... DARK. That's because it is!! I need to lighten that place up with some GORGEOUS linens like you have!!

    What a bargain, to boot, Nancy! Good job.

    That new bed sounds wonderfully comfortable. Ours has been bad since we bought it 7 years ago. We were talking about a temperpedic, but I'm getting mixed feedback from folks who have them....like they are hot....and I don't need hot! However, since you, who lives in hot Texas is OK with it, then maybe I'd better reconsider! I love the idea of two separate mattresses, too. Much better sleeping conditions! :)

    Thanks for "cheering" me on.....I need all of the support I can get with my running. I wish I had someone to run with....that would make it easier to keep it up. I just have to push myself some days to do it...then I'm always happy that I did.

    Hope you have a great PSat!!!
