DOES ANYONE Else Have a Hard Time W/ Their DUVET COVER ????????

have it dry cleaned and let the cleaners worry about it!

1. Which bedding and color scheme should I pick for my room?

The Swanky Outlet bedding (includes duvet cover) is fresh and clean looking, the lavender accent a soft color addition. With the pale blue walls, the room should seem like a slice of Spring all year round. Also, the intense colorations of your flocked surface black light poster will present well, and the bedding designs compliment and not clash with the images. ADD'L... The BB&B comforter set is a lovely white with blue stitched seashells across the surface. While it would be great with the pale blue walls, still like the lavender accent of the other bedding because it compliments the intense purple of the poster. Ultimately, you will be the person entering, using, and sleeping in the room, so the question goes back to you. Which color mixture do you want to live with; the light blue walls and soft pale toned bedding, or deep toned walls to compliment the flocked surface black light poster and soft pale toned bedding? If you think you will change the poster after a few years, consider decorating the room to match the wall color and enjoy your 'new' space.

2. What is the best fabric for a duvet cover that cat hair won't stick to?

I use cotton duvet covers which have little static and are the best for cat fur but...when the cat has been lying on them there will be fur left. it is a problem that I have too. Do not use polyester or artificial fibres. What I do is to use a velcro type brush to run over the cover before I take it off, then I shake it well. After a wash go over it with the brush again

3. I need drapes and a duvet cover, & need to find a cheap place to buy some OR fabric.?

Maybe Jo-Ann Fabrics would be good or some local fabric store

4. When you order a duvet cover from Pottery Barn is it neccesary to order the filling?

It might be easier to think of it like a pillow and pillowcase. The duvet is the pillow. It can be made of a variety of materials and varied thicknesses. You can use it without a cover. The duvet cover is the pillowcase. It keeps the duvet clean and allows you to make changes/redecorate with ease. You will need to keep in mind the size - king, queen, etc but that it all you really need to know when getting a duvet cover

5. how much would you charge to make a duvet cover?

I would charge by the hour for sewing projects. If you wanted simply 2 large pieces of fabric sewn together, with a velcro opening on one end, it would only take an hour. But: if you wanted a fancy quilted top, or many pieces of fabric sewn together, it will take much longer. I would not sew anything for anyone for any less than $20 per hour

6. Blue & Brown duvet cover/pillowcase?

Try ebay or an online shop it is actually amazing how much money you can save and what you can get. I bought this great white and green duvet on ebay for $60.00

7. How can I get my duvet cover to stay on my duvet properly?

You could sew some velcro tape on the inside of the duvet cover and match it up with the other side of the velcro sewn onto the duvet. I would concentrate on doing this near the edges but if you still find it separating then do it toward the middle too

8. How do you like this floral print duvet cover?

I love the blue "shadow" print in the back ground. I would pull that color out in solid pillow shams for your bed and extra sets of pillow cases (easy to make with matching blue fabric). The gray print is just beautiful. Using silver toned metals in the room (lamps and accessories) is the way to go. Either that and or the use of glass/crystal objects would be awesome to reflect light. If you wish to vamp up your furniture, you may want to consider changing the hardware to silvertone metals for a chic look
