India Hicks Bedding {Guest room Revamp}

If I had all the money in the world, I would switch my bedding every season in every room of my home. I absolutely love adding some warm textures for winter, taking off that heavy duvet and adding a light quilt for summer and bringing in different color combinations all year.



I was so excited when this package arrived at my doorstep a couple of weeks ago:


HSN was so thoughtful to send me a quilt set which happens to be apart of India Hick's new Island Living line. They must have read my mind because I was thinking of revamping the guest room with some lighter bedding for spring and summer.

Previously the guest room looked a little something like this:





The quilt, euro shams and duvet are all from Pottery barn a couple of years ago. I made the green and white pillows from cloth napkins..tutorial here. The bird pillow was a HomeGoods find. I was so in love with green back then. I still like the bedding, but was in need of a change. After seeing how the walls photograph, I think it is also time for a new wall color (not builder beige) and some window treatments. But we are taking baby steps people!

After adding my new India Hicks bedding I realized how much it brightened up the space and added a little more vintage feel to my great grandmother's bed. There is definitely more of a feminine touch to this room, which is good because this room also doubles as my office space which I will be sharing soon.





I had a little fun adding some unexpected colors with the plum and cream bedding. I love the touch of mint in the pillows I recently found at HomeGoods. I added a few others that I had around the house as well as the striped throw from Ikea. Such a fun mixture of colors and patterns. 






This Quilt set is lightweight which is perfect for the warmer months down here in NC! It is made really well and is soft to the touch. The quilt is also reversible with stripes on the opposite side. It also comes in two colorways that you can view here

What do you all think? Be honest..which guest room bedding do you prefer....green or plum?



A HUGE thank you to HSN for sending me this gorgeous bedding. You can check out India Hicks full Island living line Here. You won't be disappointed!!

    1. Thanks girl! I really like how light and feminine this room feels now. I didn't know I could love purple! I was never really a big fan.
