Dear Plover Organic bedding, I love you. I love that you are made from 100% organic cotton, your thread count is a respectable 250 count and your lovely designs are block printed by hand. You are tops on my wish list for new bedding when someday my prayers are answered and we move up from the Queen to the King sized mattress, a girl can dream *sigh*. Take care of you, okay? Love ya, Larkyn

I have been stalking the website of Rikshaw Designs for weeks waiting until the shop was open so I could share with you this gorgeous line of bohemian baby bedding. I’ve been on an Indian textile kick lately so it’s no surprise that I love founder Catherine Fitzsimmons delicate Indian block-prints and pretty designs. Each design is hand printed in India and is offered in four distinct collections that feature quilted crib sets, burp and bib sets and a handy diaper set. My favorite item is her stuffed elephant pillow. When I was little and had had a scary dream, one of the tricks my Dad used to use to calm me down was to tell me to imagine that my bed was surrounded by pink elephants. Someday when I have a little girl I’d want her to have one of these elephants to make her feel safe too. Click here to buy directly from Rikshaw Designs.

When I spotted the Raksha Bella collection over at More Ways to Waste Time I almost cried because they’re so beautiful. I’m sad to be leaving our little house in the hills of Mill Valley but I when I saw this lovely bedding it made me excited to set up house all over again in Utah. It’s on the pricier end for bedding, $311-$449 for duvets, but since it’s handmade in India using quality certified organic cotton I’d say it’s more than justified. Drool over it at any of these Bay Area locations.

Needs some inspiration for reupholstering your Sunday Flea Market finds? Head over to the incredible Lotus Bleu for designer Jeannie Fraise’s boldly reupholstered vintage furniture. Jeannie travels annually to France and Southeast Asia to gather her beautiful fabrics for custom upholstery, cushions and curtains. I’ve got my eye on some bedding from India and I’m definitely filing this place away for my next upholstery project. Bonus for me, Jeannie’s store is in San Francisco!

Tia and I both flipped out over John Robshaw‘s textiles for baby crib sets. You may recognize his patterns from Anthropologie, they carry some of his items. But now you can buy directly from the man on his new shopping website, including clothes, bedding, pillows and curtains. Inspired by his travels around the world his patterns are so rich and exotic all hand stitched, hand embroidered and printed on the finest cottons and linens, sigh…

Since I have my awesome new chair I was inspired to redress my “dressing room” (which has a twin bed in it) so I bought some (on sale) Dwell bedding. Eventually the “dressing room” will be a baby room but until we hit the baby lottery it’s my chill out space so I want to make it super cushie and cute. Also at Dwell are these adorable crib sets from their Dwell Baby line.

I just got the latest
Garnet Hill catalog in the mail and I want new bedding! I have a bit of a bedding obsession. I buy new sheets everytime I pass a Ross Dress For Less and I buy a new duvet every December as a little Christmas gift to myself. It drives the hubs crazy that I always buy new bedding but he only benefits by sleeping in a fluffy “girl” bed every night!
