Before we get to the bedding, I wanted to let you know that today on the podcast, we’re discussing mirrors and choosing the best one for your room.

I get asked all the time where I bought this bedding. This long drop skirt is my favorite look for a bed. The truth is that I made it. I love this style of bedspread and the sad truth is that it is difficult to find.
The good news is that I found a source for the bedding. Not only is it the style of my bedding, but it is also made from linen. You guessed it. The bedding is made by Bella Notte. The BEST news is that they have an outlet! You heard me correctly.
The bedding has a long drop. It’s a bright white. 100% linen wrinkles. I actually like the wrinkles, but you can iron them out if you like. (I don’t like to polish my silver either.)
If your bed is tall you should be fine. The drop on this bedspread is 32 inches. As you can see our bed is slightly taller. We basically need a ladder to climb into bed. Most beds are much shorter than ours.
Just look at those luxurious white euro pillow shams.
See that look? You can only get this look with linen. If you know me, then you know I love linen. It’s a natural fiber, it stays cool to the touch in winter, and it’s gorgeous.
The other pillow I want to point out is the gorgeous blue velvet French bolster pillow. It’s even prettier in person. I had this sitting in my living for awhile before we brought it to the farm. Every time someone came over, they walked over to this velvet pillow and touched it. Then on the way to the farm, Molly The Collie found a way to rest her head on the pillow in the car.
The pillow is down filed and boy is it soft. I love the ties on the ends.
Here is the way the outlet works. The items I am showing you may or may not be in stock. It’s an outlet so the stock changes from day to day. I thought I would highlight some things that were stock when I wrote this.
Check out the Olivia shams below. You can find them in the Bella Notte Outlet, HERE.

For this linen king pillow sham, CLICK HERE. They only have one, but one king size pillow is perfect for a twin bed. I often use a king size pillow for a twin bed.

It’s so fun pursuing their site to see what’s on sale.
Oooooh, yummy linen! I made my linen bedspread like yours too! Also my favorite style! Can’t wait to explore their outlet!
Love these items! Thank you for sharing this site!
What color are the walls painted?
Judith it’s all HERE
So pretty…would love to hear more about how you made your spread. Will definitely check out the website.
There’s something so earthy and homey about linen…maybe the essence of nature! Love it!!!
I had no idea they had an outlet! I will be checking this out.
Have a great weekend.
Would you please share your source for linen fabric?
Marie, I’ll be talking about sources for linen in an upcoming post.
Thanks for the source and the affirmation! Go Team Tarnish! Rah Rah Wrinkles!
I also have a tall bed but love it. Thanks for sharing the linen outlet info.
Thank goodness! I’ve found someone else who loves the wrinkles in linen and doesn’t polish their silver! I collect old monogrammed silver and I would never polish it and lose that gorgeous patina. There is simply something very inviting about our rumpled wrinkled linen sheets and pillow cases. I look forward to your newsletter every day! Blessings to you and yours!
Love linen and the long skirted bedspreads! Thanks for sharing the site.
Such lovely linens! Thanks for the info!
I wish you could come and do my house!!! Always love your ideas!
Love Bella Notte! Thank you for your post!!!
I could just sink into your bed with a glass of wine and a juicey novel. You home is warm and inviting. Thank you for sharing. Many blessings.
I love the linen look but I think the wrinkles will drive me insane!!!!!
I may have to try it and just take a deep breath as it’s prettiness is worth it!!!
Great styles on bedding! Not sure who is able to spend that much on bedding, but I am in love with the look. I can see why someone would make their own, probably a lot more affordable.
Sue, it’s the linen that is so expensive, and this type of bed uses a lot of fabric. I think I used about 10 yards for my queen bed. If you got the fabric at $30/yd, that’s $300 just for the fabric. The bedspread is time consuming to make also because of the ruffle, so labor costs are high. This is definitely an investment, but in my opinion, well worth it. I have found when I buy bargain bedding that I am not happy with it for long and I am replacing it every couple of years. When I look at the bigger picture it is worth the expense for me, because compared to the cost of constantly replacing my bedding, this will end up being about the same or cheaper over time. Of course it is your decision and you need to do what is best for you. And if someone can sew, that is certainly an option.
When it comes to bedding I never skimp because we spend a good portion of everyday sleeping and it’s important to be comfortable. When I find something I truly love it’s an investment that lasts for years and years. Good job making your bedspread!
Sue, I’m with you on this.
The linen is expensive to buy Sue, so this style in linen, even if you make it yourself will not be cheap. Of course you can save money if you want to make it yourself.
Thanks for your input. I understand that linen may be expensive, and I do not necessarily go for ‘bargain’ bedding, but some could not afford to pay say $200 for one pillow, or even $150 for two shams. But if you can afford it and are not living beyond your means or on credit, go for it. I found a linen line at Bed Bath and Beyond that I felt was reasonable as I was able to get it on clearance, and that is okay for me. Nothing against your post here, because I absolutely love it, and I did browse the Bella Notte outlet store. It states that their products are crafted and assembled locally, and I think that is great. If I had the income to support such purchases, I may consider buying an item or two.
Absolutely Sue. This is not in everyone’s budget. Excellent points!
I love your style…I’m not an all-white person but have tried to use it in one room…
Love the linen, love the style, love you too!!!
Ginger
Love you too Ginger!!!
I love your bedding! It’s absolutely gorgeous. I’m hoping to do this in our bedroom at the farmhouse. ?
LOVE the look, Anita… you have great taste! I’ll let you know if my budget will EVER (and I mean EVER) be able to afford these splurges! It could happen, ya know…. 😀
I love the wrinkles, especially the pillowcases.
I love the bedspread. The style would work in my country french bedroom. I don’t like white with my furniture. My bed, armoire and chest are painted antique ivory. My current bedskirt is a dark burgundy. I alternate between a vintage cream matlassae coverlet and an embroidered quilt. For fun, ‘m adding a deep lace ruffle to the quilt. It’s taking awhile since the quilt has a scalloped edge and I’m hand-gathering the lace on!
Wow, I love everything you do, and I especially love this linen bedding! I don’t iron out my wrinkles, either. Please don’t move out of Texas!
I love your bedding, it is so cozy looking.
Love your style! Thanks for the opportunity to be entered in your generous giveaway
Oh how exciting- I love the giveaway prizes. I LOVE this post- I had never heard for bella notte’s outlet before- my bank account isn’t going to be happy about this one 😉
Wow! I loved today’s blog. The linens are beautiful and that blue pillow on your bed. 🙂 Thanks for the heads up on the outlet website! I’m going to it right now.
Love that long bedskirt! So pretty! Pinned! Thank you for sharing on Merry Monday! Have a great week!
Kim
I love the bedding you show here. It has been difficult to find here so thank you for sharing the source.
Love these beautiful linens!
Hi,
Worth the $. I’d describe this as a Summer comforter but with a duvet it would work in cold weather.
Appreciate it!
