DIY Duvet Cover Inspiration

Apparently I have a critic.  Mr. subscribes to my blog and just the other day he said that I haven't been posting any projects lately.  So over the weekend I worked on our son's room making curtains, a duvet cover, and a monogram lampshade.  Hopefully I will have the post ready tomorrow so stay tuned.  In the meantime, I did find some fun tutorials for making your own duvet cover.  Some of them are older, but stylin' all the same.

  3. I cannot wait to see the duvet that you make. Being from South we love a good monogram. I am anxious to do a pillow.

  5. Thanks for the different duvet inspirations and tutorials!! I too can't believe how much you do - I would hate to think of what your critic would say about my (lack) of completion of projects!!!

  6. i am in love with the look of the last one! i just love ruched bedding... i have a pintuck duvet cover and love it, too, but i really love that ruched one! when i got mine west elm had another that was more ruched that i loved but it was very thin and see through and i wasn't fond of that. and i don't have patience to make my own- i made two before, and i used up all the patience i had for it then. i need a ocuple years to warm back up to the idea!

  7. I love Janell's classic style at Isabella and Max Rooms. It's always so classic and so neat-looking.

    Thanks for all this inspiration, Rene. I always think the preparing (by looking for inspiration) is almost as important as the doing. So you could tell your Mister that you *are* doing projects. Just the preparing part!

  17. Can't wait to see your room. I'm planning to redo my son's room while he's away at outdoor lab next month - I'm sure I'll get some inspiration from yours!!

  18. Oh the block print duvet is genius! Perhaps I can make myself a fun throw pillow with some scraps I have lying around. Thanks for sharing, Rene!

  19. I like the one from I&MR best b/c I think it would hold up in my house. ;) I love the idea of making my own duvet cover, but wonder if the cost of fabric would make it easier to just purchase one...

  20. Love all the duvet inspirations! Block printing your own could be really cool. Can't wait to see the finished projects you worked on this weekend!

  21. Amanda, it depends on the fabric I suppose. Mine is made of muslin on the cheap.

  22. Making a duvet cover has been on my list of things to do for a long time. Thanks for posting these ideas!

    We have a full sized bed and it's impossible to find a comfortor cover to fit the comfortor that I have that's a true full. Most that you can purchase now are full/queen which is too big for the comfortor that I have. I need to find some fabric or sheets and get busy!

  23. * Hi, Rene... so glad you posted this. I am a NUT on these...(the only "problem" is that EACH ONE takes up SOOO MUCH SPACE and our guest room closets are almost bulging now, and that is NOT nice for our guests!)...

    ... And I ALWAYS love to see what JANELL (of ISABELLA and MAX) does... her "new bed" looks soooo fabulous, as I love a clean-lined, tailored & classic look. Thanks for sharing it, as I had SOMEHOW "missed" this particular pic.

    As always, looking forward to reading/seeing your blog!!! Appreciate it so much~ know it must take up so much time to do!!!

    Warmest,

  26. Thank you so much for the wonderful inspirations! The images are lovely. I made a duvet years ago(Hmm, I wonder where it is!?!) but should really try it again. These are lovely. You always have wonderful ideas. Thank you, Rene.
