Styling A New Cotton Bed Quilt Set

*Today’s post was made possible by PALASSIO, and features gifted product for the purposes of a candid review. All opinions are my own.

I’m not generally the type of homemaker who changes out décor entirely when a new season arrives. I work so hard designing our spaces to look just right for everyday life that I hate the idea of swapping things out just for the sake of a new season or holiday. It doesn’t seem all that sustainable to me, personally, and I also don’t have the budget for lots of extra season-specific decorations. That said, there is one type of home accent that I change out each season, and it’s our bedding. That makes sense, though, right? We don’t want to sleep with really heavy winter sheets and comforters this warmer time of the year, so I generally change to lighter linens and fabrics that help keep us cool throughout spring and summer.

This year I decided to switch things way up by laying out a quilt on our bed. I’ve always been a thick comforter girlie, but this year I questioned myself on that habit. With the temperatures continuing to creep up at night, I want to be as cool as possible to get a good night’s rest, so a thin quilt just makes sense. I wish I had thought of doing this a long time ago, especially now that we’ve been enjoying our new  PALASSIO “Stripe” quilt set.

We ordered our new quilt in the color “Wheat” to fit our king size bed, and it has been a dream to cuddle into at night. The machine-washable 100% cotton texture is suitable for sensitive skin and is cozy yet cooling. I also love the modern look of the striped stitching. This definitely isn’t a “grandma” style quilt! The linear design fits right in with our sleek mid-century furniture, and I appreciate that the neutral light beige color doesn’t draw your eye away from the other decorative accents in our room, like the vintage rug and colorful art.

Okay, but possibly the best part is the price. This king size set comes with the quilt and shams for under $80, which I think is very reasonable considering how pricey bedding has gotten at other big retail stores. I usually spend well over $200 for good king size bedding these days, so I’m excited to have discovered this budget-friendly alternative to share with you.

Have you tried sleeping with just a quilt over your sheets during the warmer months of the year? Totally fine if you prefer using a comforter year-round, of course. I know this quilt would look beautiful folded up at the end of your bed on top of your everyday comforter. Or you could use it as a throw in your living room! So many possibilities…Let me know in the comments how you’d use it.

April 2025 Home Mood Boards

Rustic Cabin Bedroom Home Mood Board

It’s time to share what I’ve been posting over on my LTK account! I started this series because I didn’t want you to miss out on this free content in case you’re not following along on LTK or Instagram, so I’ll be posting a roundup here on the blog at the end of each month to help inspire your home décor brainstorming. Don’t forget to click all the way through to LTK (links are included in the paragraph explanations below) to get direct linked access to all of the pieces in each collection.

Rustic Cabin Bedroom:

If I ever won the lottery, one of the first things I’d do is buy a retro wood cabin for us to enjoy. It wouldn’t be too far away (we live amongst the mountains of Virginia already, after all!), but just far enough away to feel like a retreat, where we could escape small town city life. This first “Rustic Cabin Bedroom” mood board is my dream of the perfect primary suite design. Cozy textiles, earthy colors, lots of wood tones (both real and faux), and even a stack of on-theme coffee table books to flip through—it’s all here, and I really hope to have a chance to put this mood board to good use in real life someday. Click here to get shopping links to everything you see in the graphic above.

Luxe Closet Organization Home Mood Board

Luxe Closet Organization:

One of the projects I have on my “someday” list for here at our current home is a closet makeover. I spoke about our limited storage situation on the blog here in case you missed it, but I think these organization accessories would go a long way in making our existing space more functional. All of the matching velvet hangers, jewelry totes, hanging containers, fabric sweater boxes, and shelf dividers I sourced for the mood board are all linked here, plus some options for freestanding closet storage, too, if you’re starting from scratch.

 

Outdoor Stone Patio Home Mood Board

Outdoor Stone Patio:

Our DIY hardscape is finished, so I’ve officially moved on to the decorating phase—my favorite part, of course. This mood board above showcases my vision for our new outdoor living and dining space, and, happily, our real life patio is actually starting to look and feel just like it! We’ve filled it with potted plants, low-maintenance faux shrubbery, modern outdoor lighting, geometric outdoor pillows, and lounge chairs. Shop the full mood board on the Dream Green DIY LTK feed this way. I can’t wait to show the final patio off to you in a few weeks once everything has arrived and has been properly styled in place. Stay tuned…

Let me know in the comments if you have a specific room or spot in your home that you’d like me to mood board next! I always make sure to prioritize follower requests first, so please do tell what’s on your list of future house projects.
