Need Bedding Ideas

[Carleen]

Okay- so we have a 2011 BH with a King Bed. The comforter is like a bed spread that has quality fabric. We don't have the shams for the pillows. It is nice, but scratchy! It doesn't keep you warm and just doesn't work for me. I am used to a down comforter with a nice duvet. SO, the question I have is- where did you all get your bedding if you upgraded to something different? The colors are hard to match with the retailers because they carry a lot of grey and cool tones.

I looked at pictures of a new Bighorn and it also had a nice comforter. Is it like a cotton comforter? Or more like a beadspread? I am open to ordering from Heartland if it is one that works.

Thanks for your input!

Like almost everything else we've upgraded... Amazon.com Attached photo is our upgraded bedding. (King)

The better half purchased all of our bedding from BB&B. We downsized to the queen but I don't think that should matter.

That is very nice- I was hoping to find something like that. I will have to check out Amazon.com

I have also looked at BB&B, but didn't have much luck. The colors are hard to match! Ours is the Pecan wood with the golden/espresso interior, and we have dogs, so finding something that would work hasn't been easy.

Thanks for the ideas!

BigLots has bed-in-a-bag combos that aren't too expensive.

I put my original bedspread and shams in storage at home and I use blankets and a coverlet. The coverlet is neutral and I use some colored throw pillows for a little life to the simple. Why? Because with the dogs and our love of dry camping, the coverlet is machine washable.

We have a French Bulldog that tends to make a mess on the bedding from her eye boogies. Just something you can't avoid with her because she is old. And she won't sleep on the floor without being panicked- bless her heart she is a spoiled dog!

Something with a pattern that is washable is best. We use blankets on the bed for the dogs, but that isn't always fail safe from the face boogies.

Is a coverlet the same as a duvet cover?

no- a coverlet is like a light weight quilt, but bigger so it is used as a bed cover. At home I use a bamboo coverlet for the guest bed which one of my labs has decided is hers. Again, washes very easily and not many dogs shed like a black lab😀
This coverlet came with matching shams and again i use fancier throw pillows to give it life

Okay- that would make sense. It would probably work better than the blanket we are using!

Carleen, I use quilts on our bed, no comforter. I didn't try match the walls/wood colors, I added colors that I love and they brighten up the bedroom. Add to your room what you like best. Most standard size bedding options will work.

We've used ablifestyles.com. Their a family business which custom makes about anything you want for rv bedding. The cool thing is, the bottom corners to their sheets, quilts, etc. have elastic sewn in. You will pay, but we have their stuff on our 3 different bed sizes and like them a lot.

I buy what I like off the shelf. We found a king sized comforter that had a little beige in it, but was a bluish gray mostly.

My wife bought one of these for our trailer....at first I was unsure, but they are really nice. Easy to make the bed and very soft/comfortable inside.

One of the first things we did was remove the OEM bedspread, pillows and pillow shams. I think they're still in a tote in our basement, or maybe they got tossed. Cheap, at best. We use comforters of different weights/colors that are washable and large Tempurpedic pillows. Cats like to toss their cookies on them occasionally, so all bedding has to be washable.

Carlene,

Our kids gave us this quilt when we bought our Elkridge with a queen bed. I still works on our King now in the Silverado. We take our pillows from home and have added the decorative ones as an accent for the quilt.(I have rotated pictures several ways and they still are sideways.)

 

[GETnBYE]

We went with the quilt/coverlet option. Comfortable and washable. This is what we got, but there are tons of options out there.

The fabric is providing quality to make good bedding

Don’t try to match, try to blend or go bold and outrageous. Find something you like. I don’t bother with pillow shams.
