Sick and Tired

I got it... I got the flu. Knocking on wood, our family seems to have a pretty good immune system. While I hear horror stories from friends of their middle of the night explosions of bodily fluids from their kids and being sick for days, I have sit back and thanked God that we don't have moments like that in our house. I am not sure what we are doing right, but maybe it's all luck.
Luck has caught up with me though. Last week, I got it. Looking back it wasn't horrible. I didn't have any body fluids (I know-gross) expelling from my body, but I and the couch started to become one. It really kicked my butt.
It was no fun. I really was sick and tired of being sick and tired. So if you haven't gone out and received your flu shot, I do recommend it.
During my time on the couch, I did have visions of this room and thought if I had a room like this maybe my time being sick would've been a little more enjoyable.

Doesn't that look so nice and cozy? I love it!
I hope to regain my energy soon, and stop thinking about beds.
Have a good weekend.

John Robshaw

At first glance at John Robshaw's textile line, you can't deny the strong East Indian, Moroccan, and general Eastern influence in his textiles prints. You may think that his textiles would only work in a sort of bohemian style decor but what is great about his textiles is that they are very versatile in my opinion. They can look right at home in a traditional setting as well as a coastal look and I really like how they can mix and match with other textiles so easy as well.
Here are some of my favorites. (Excuse all the blue choices, but that is a color that I seem to be drawn to lately)

Fun bedding for girls' rooms too.

And some fun tablecloths, and vases too.

 

 

I recently added new bedding to our Master Bedroom since we moved from a queen size bed to a king, and I purchased this from Z Gallerie.
I feel it reminds me a lot of something Robshaw would create.

So, are Robshaw's or look alikes something you would or do have in your own home? Do you think they are versatile?

Thank you so much to everyone that stopped by my blog from Marianne's site this weekend! I hope that you will stick around. If you are a designer or blogger that would like to take part of my "Look Behind the Curtains" series, please send me a line. I would love your input as well. It's so fun to see what other bloggers/designers advice and thoughts are.
