Wrapped In Warmth
For plush linens, try one of the options from the new Southern Living bedding collections. Southern Seasons (pictured here) combines the soft reds and warm khakis of a Southern fall with wonderful
details such as raffia-style bows on the accent pillows and ruffled trim on the shams.
Southern Seasons is one of three collections available at Kohl’s (www.kohls.com). To find out more about our bedding collections and where to find them, visit www.southernlivinghomecollection.com.
Do-It-Yourself Project
For an inexpensive solution to the headboard dilemma, our resident woodworker, Kenner Patton, crafted this stylish version
from lumber found at a home-improvement store. By using standard-size lumber, he kept the price for materials at less than
$100. The real trick to the head- and footboard is that they are set up to work with a standard bed frame, so you’ll have
a solid base for a good night’s sleep. Both pieces can be sized to accommodate any mattress and painted or stained any color.
You also have your choice of three leg options.
