Our bedroom has been through a lot of transitions since closing on our home at the beginning of May. Before moving in, we had our contractors remove the tray ceiling, board up the doorway on the right leading to the front room and patch and paint. (The walls and trim are both SW White Flour.) The new white oak floors were laid and stained, and then we moved in! Chris and I both dreamed of putting our bed in the window nook as soon as we saw our bedroom and even had Modsy work it up so we could see if our King bed would fit.
The rendering looked amazing, but the real life version looks and feels even better. We ordered this bed with a low headboard that won’t be here for a few months so we can still enjoy looking out the windows with our bed placed there and bonus, still watch TV at night across from our bed.
The room today has all of our favorites in it from our last bedroom, and it really allowed us to feel settled right away. Our nightstands, lamps, even our sheets — especially our sheets — made it feel like home.
Boll & Branch not only makes the highest quality sheets I’ve ever owned — they’re also ethically sourced, fair-trade certified, and made of the softest organic cotton. They’re heirloom quality, and the style is timeless and sophisticated.
This is our primary bedroom, and I just got a second set of these Boll & Branch Percale Simple Stripe Sheet Set in Dune (my favorite!) for the guest house because they last and last and get better with every wash. And the soft stripes go with everything. I layered on our favorite waffle bed blanket (the ONLY blanket Chris approves of — it’s truly the perfect weight) and got a new duvet from Boll & Branch — the Signature Eyelet, white on white — with the most delicate details and luxury craftsmanship. It felt fresh to have one new thing in this space.

Besides the bed on its way, I’m also looking for a new light fixture for this space! I think something romantic like a crystal chandelier would be so pretty! Maybe something like what we hung in our last closet?! And as for the shutters — we’re going to live with them a little longer before we make any final decisions. I think that they can be charming, but automatic roman shades also sound really nice right now.
My husband is very picky about any blanket, especially since we live in Low Country, SC. This waffle lightweight blanket is the very best that we have ever purchased! It is just as you said. We chose the cream color, which is exactly the right tone, and have used it for two nights—perfect weight, design and lovely to look at. It was a splurge but with your code, a bit better. We thank you for the recommendation as we had never even heard of Boll and Branch before this.
I love it but would be so tempted to spin the bed around and have your feet toward the window, then put something, possibly a dresser, behind the headboard…like a secret bed hidden there
Welcome to North Carolina! Have been following you for a while and can’t wait to see all the stunning work you will do to this gorgeous new home :)
Just an FYI that with the site redesign, links in the comments are indistinguishable from normal text until you hover over them. It took me a couple minutes to realize you were replying with product links, vs forgetting to include a link. I imagine many people will breeze over the comments without realizing they can click,
Thanks for letting me know! On it!
LOVE Boll and Branch too! Might need to snag a second set with this code 😉 what duvet insert do you use? Our is currently too hot along with our tempurpedic mattress.
