Can you help me decide on bedding?

I am planning on doing a mini-redo of our master bedroom and I am stumped as to which bedding I want to buy.  So I appreciate your opinion! 

Which do you like better?  I am interested in the gray bedding.

  • I like the rosette one better, but they are both great!

  • IDK why, but I can't get the second link to work.  BUT, I love love love the first one.  I think it is very pretty.  What else are you going to redo in there?

  • I agree #1 is my favorite. The 2nd one makes me think of the Michilan Man:

  • Hmm, now the purple color of bedding number one is starting to appeal to me.  Do you think I could pull off the purple color (considering I am not a teen ager and I have a husband as a roommate)?  I was thinking I could paint the walls a soft gray color and maybe a chartreuse green throw pillow.  Hmm, maybe even white glossy bedside table lamps.  Our bedroom set is a dark ebony color with brushed silver pulls.  

    What do you guys think?  Or should I just stay with the various shades of gray theme I was originally going for?  

    Ahh, I can't make a decision!!

  • I definitely like #1 better.  I love that purple color but i know my H would hate it so I would never buy it.  What would your H say??  Also if you go with a color its harder to find stuff to match, but like you said you could just do accents.  I think the silver is really pretty too and you could always do purple accents with that too!

  • They are both beautiful, but I like #1 better. And I think both colors are gorgeous. I am loving the color grey right now, so I would probably lean towards that one, but I really love the idea of the purple against grey walls too, if your H will go for it.

  • I personally like the first one better, but it all depends on the look you're going for.  The purple with the grey walls and grey accents sounds like a really nice look, but I'd maybe keep the purple as the only "bright" color and maybe nix the green throws.  I think the bright green with the purple will look more teenage-ish than adult, but if you keep the purple balanced with more muted, neutral colors like greys, whites, and silvers I think it'd look gorgeous, esp with the dark furniture.

  • I like the purple one better.  With grey walls, ebony furniture, and some silver and white accents it would look very luxurious and not childish.  I would stay away from adding the green you mentione, however, since that will make it look more playful and young.
  • Thanks for the feedback! I asked my H this evening if he wanted an opinion about the bedding and he said no.  So even though I failed to mention the bedding would be purple, I think I am going to buy the purple bedding!  Ha.  I know if I mention the word "purple" he will get in a tizzy but once he sees the finished room I am sure he will love it.....or at least not hate it.  He is pretty indifferent when it comes to home decor.

    And I think you guys are right, I should nix the green accents.  Now I just got to figure the rest of the decor details out!

    Thanks again :)
