 Fresh and floral bedding
The summer sale is on at Designers Guild and, amongst the bargains on offer, is this Amalienborg bedding set.
The duvet set is reversible, with a fresh and modern stylished floral print on one side, with dominating colours of pink and lilac, coupled with subtle green, and a pretty striped design on the reverse.
Made from 100% cotton percale, the bedlinen is available in a range of sizes from single, to double, king and super king. If you like slightly floral designs, but sometimes want a change of bedding, then this reversible set would be ideal.
The Amalienborg bedlinen has 50% off the original prices in the Designers Guild sale.

 Crisp and colourful duvet
There are some lovely bedding options in the shops at the moment. If you love crisp, fresh whites, but would like a bit of colour added too, then this coffee bean design bedding by Clarissa Hulse is perfect.
The white cotton percale bed linen is jazzed up nicely with vertical lines of coffee beans, in red, blue, turqouise and orange . Well, they call it coffee beans at least – we’re not convinced this is the best description, as it’s mostly wavy strings of colour with the odd coffee bean shaped design added in (kind of like strings of fairy lights). Either way, it’s simplistic enough to still provide you with that crisp white bedding look, but without being totally bland and devoid of colour.
Pop over to John Lewis to find out more and buy a Clarissa Hulse coffee bean design duvet. Sizes range from double to super kingsize.

 Super storage box
Having drawers built in under a bed provides oodles of useful storage space. But if your bed is lacking drawers, don’t despair!
This super sturdy large storage box is perfect for popping under your bed, or even on top of a wardrobe. It’s made from dark rattan, lined with a nice turquoise colour and measures 83cm by 46cm by 18cm. It would be ideal for storing all your jumpers and woolies during the summer, or simply for helping to reduce some of the clutter from your room.
The dark rattan storage box is sold by Heal’s, who also have other matching boxes available in different sizes.

 Leather Park Lane TV bed
A leather bed is the ultimate in luxury and this one, from Furniture Village, has the added bonus of also having a 26″ HD LCD TV built into it.
The flat screen TV is in the foot of the bedstead and there’s space provided to house a DVD player too, with connections for a SCART and two HDMi cables. All the cables and wires are cleverly hidden beneath the slatted beech wooden base, so you won’t be faced by wires as you get in and out of bed.
The double leather TV bed is available in a range of five colours, including this lovely pale cream shade. The usual Furniture Village price for the Park Lane TV Bed is £4795, but if you buy it now, it’s only £2595.

 Modern gloss bedside table
This modern gloss finish bedside table provides the look and style of a gloss finish, but without some of the usual limitations.
The drawers are finished in a lovely burgandy gloss finish, but the surround of the bedside table is in larch. This means that everytime you put something on the top of the bedside table, or touch it, you won’t leave behind fingermarks, as you would with a fully glossy finish. It’s also nice to have a pale colour mixed with a contrasting darker colour.
The table is part of the modular bedroom range at Space2, which also has pieces in black gloss, but you can easily use it as a standalone piece on its own.
The two drawers are finished off with long silver handles and the whole piece measures 51.2cm by 50cm by 44cm in size.
The burgandy bedside table is avilable from Space2 for £109.

 Vibrant Jali quilt
I’m loving the vibrant colours of this Jali Indian quilt, with its striking pinks, blues and greens.
It would certainly inject a shot of colour and liven up the look of a bedroom on a cold, dark day.
The quilt measures 250cm by 250cm and there are matching pillowcases available to complete the look.
It’s available from Berry Red, with the quilt priced at £135 and the pillowcase at £25.
They also do the Martha Indian quilt and cushion, which is pretty lovely too.

For a great way of achieving the classic monochrome look, then this intricate cutwork black throw, by Selina Rose, works very effectively on a white duvet.
Produced in England, and handmade to order, the cosy cutwork black wool felt throw measures 50cm by 200cm, and is the perfect size to drape over a bed.
The Bloom throw is made by the same designer, Selina Rose, as the Botanica rug we’ve featured previously.

 Snuggle up and keep warm
The cooler weather brings with it a great excuse for snuggling up under a warm blanket – and it’s the perfect way of keeping the heating bills down.
We love this vibrant and colourful Avoca blanket from Plumo, which features an array of colours in shades of red, blue, green and purple.
It’s made from 70% mohair and 30% wool and is produced in the oldest working mill in County Wicklow, Ireland.
The blanket is perfect for wrapping yourself up in on chilly days, putting on your bed for an extra layer of warmth at night or curling up under on the sofa.
Buy your Avoca blanket at Plumo for £89.
