A great place to get relatively inexpensive bedspreads is Target... you can also check out Wal-Mart and places like that. They have lots of colorful, fun stuff that will lighten up the room a little and bring out the color of the wood!

JCPenney has a wide variety of colors for sheets and bedspreads that let you mix and match colors.

Go to ikea I think the best color that would work for you is gray like a light gray would work. Anyway ikea has a lot of great stuff and its not very expensive either! You could also try pb teen, and target!
Hope I Helped!

Firstly your room sounds loverly. As for what and where, I highly reccomend either Z-Gallerie, Bombay Company (in the mall) or perhaps pottery barn. Considereing the tone of the furniture you're using PB teens might be a little garish.
As for catalogues Ballard designs is amazing. Also you could go the garage sale route and test your furniture refinishing and treating skills.

Some general reccomendations would be to go check out some interior design magazines: House beautiful, Martha Stewart Living, Home and Garden, etc. See what styles you would enjoy having in your room and go on a hunt for objects.

I've often seen the Martha stewart line in places like Wal-mart, and for what you're describing a beautiful creme or white mat lise (forgive the spelling, it's pronounced "matt liz-ay" i know that much) bedspread would work. It's a very thin quilt like spread with light embroidery. It would help to lighten the room.
Or you could go for a slightly morrocan feel by using some more exotic patterns in rugs and spreads that include that blue of the wall, but use these with restraint to avoid sensory overload (not good in a bedroom where you want to relax). For objects like that try Pier One, Z-Gallery and Bombay.

Happy shopping :) .

PBTeen (Potterybarn Teen) has tons of great stuff for rooms. They don't have a store but they have a website and catalog. It's a little on the pricey side but it's really cute stuff. If you want cheaper stuff check out Target. They have a lot of room decor stuff too.

ncblondie answered Wednesday July 13 2005, 1:19 pm:
Since your room is dark, you need a bedspread in either a light or bright color. Dark furniture is nice (I have it myself) but without some brightness thrown in it will make the room seem small and even darker. I'm not sure of your tastes in bedding so I will just direct you to jcpenney.com where they are having a great sale (20-50% off) right now on bedding. Also curtains in light or bright shades will help. Try a couple throw pillows either on the bed or around the room to brighten it up. Hope this helps.
