Patterned Bedding Delivering Eye-Catching Style

The bed is a style-defining part of any bedroom design. Make it a bold expression of your personal style by selecting patterned bedding from Williams Sonoma. With so many available options to choose from, it is easy to find a colour and design that reflects your decorating style.

Dressing a Bed With Patterned Bedding

Creating a bedroom that looks as though it jumped off the pages of your Favourite magazine or catalog requires three simple steps:

• Showcase a Comforter or Duvet Set: The comforter or duvet cover is the star of the bedding design. Because it is the largest piece you'll feature, it's important to start dressing your bed by selecting the duvet cover. These covers are designed to fit around a duvet insert and typically come with a matching pair of pillow shams.
• Select a Sheet Set: With the duvet cover selected, it's time to pick a sheet set that coordinates with the duvet cover. Keep it clean and classic with a solid sheet set or look for something with a little more pizzazz by checking out a sheet set with a stitched border or decorative trim.
• Style the Bed With Decorative Pillows: Once all the essentials are in place, it's time to have a little fun with the extras you can add to a bed. A line of Euro shams along the back provide support for reading or watching TV in bed. Layering decorative pillows of various shapes and sizes in front provides an opportunity to play around with different patterns and colours to add visual appeal. If you tend to get cold in the evening, select a coverlet or throw blanket and fold it at the end of the bed.

Personalizing Your Bedding

Give your bed that personal touch by taking advantage of the personalization options available for the solid coloured pillowcases and pillow shams you've selected. Add a single initial or keep things sophisticated with a complete monogram. This added step also instantly turns any bedding into a thoughtful gift for a loved one on your shopping list.

There are more ways to introduce colour and pattern to your bedroom than with the bedding itself. Add window coverings and stylish home decor accents that draw out colours from the patterned bedding you've selected and sprinkle them around the space. If you're having trouble narrowing down all the options to your very Favourite, consider the care instructions and thread count of the bedding.
