would a queen size bedroom set fit in the average one bedroom apartment?

Q.

A. Well, I got most of a king sized one into a two bedroom. I put the bed in first to see how much space it took. I then wanted nightstands on either side and was really starting to see that we were getting cramped. I then moved in the triple dresser, pulled out the drawers and discovered that if I sat on the bed, I could fully access the drawer contents. Conversely, when I brought in the highboy, no matter where I put it, the full drawers could not be pulled out for easy access to the contents mainly because they were deeper drawers. So it found a home out in the hallway. That being said, we did do a just in case measurement in the closet and discovered that if the triple dresser did not fit in the room itself, it could occupy space in the closet. (We might have had to raise the clothes bar for adequate clearance of the hanging garments, however.)


where can i get cheap bedding?
Q. where online or in store can i find sheets, pillow cases, and bed skirts for under $30? not wal-mart or target please. it's for a teen bedroom. and queen sized bed.

A. JCPenney's has a great bedding sale right now. 7piece sets for as low as $24.95 (on clearance). They also have a great customer service department.


i want to paint my room...?
Q. purple and green are the colors. i have a fouton but not any like dressers or anything, a stereo this plastic thing and a t.v. how should i paint it, walls one color the furniture the other?
(i am getting furniture though)
so what is your idea.
i don't know what color it's gonna be maybe black, but i would paint it, or parts of it.
i just want a room that is nice to be in and relax in. and kind of a funky look to it.

A. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/bedroom
go to explore all of our bed rooms now and that will give u some ideas i love the first room that shows its kinda a dark gray with them funky awesome curtains that will look good and also there is an eye at the bottom and it changes views click on them and it shows different things also u can see the different curtains to pick from his is a really nice store i hope u enjoy it. it sucks for me tho cause they dont have any stores in kansas and i love this website so i have to order offline but i LOVE it.


if uwant purple and green i would do either ur walls purple or green not both it will be too busy i would paint one color and bring in the other color with accents like pillows or paintings any decor wil be good. go to hobby lobby and find things in the colors like candles and maybe u could find a bed spread that u love i will look for one for u and post it on here when i find some nice ones

Can someone explain to me how to make a bed?
Q. Hi,

The winter is coming and the weather is getting colder each day, and I am planning to buy a good blanket, but I am totally lost with all the terms thrown around when I was looking through Amazon.com store.

For example, what are "down" "duvet" "comforter" "blanket" "cover"? What are the difference between those??

I am looking for a blanket that has feathers in it, such that it is fluffy. And I will also need some kind of cover to protect said blanket so it does not get dirty.

Can someone help me explain those things and guide me to what items I need to get?

Thanks!

A. I don't blame you for being confused. This is really mind boggling and all manufacturers call things different they are even called different things in the US from state to state and in Canada it's another animal entirely.

So I could bore you for hours but let me give you a 5 minute education. It will be worth your time please bear with me.

1. You want a down comforter also called a duvet in a medium weight box stitch. There are fill powers meaning the better the down the littler and better quality the feathers are and more expensive. The box stitch (baffle) keeps the feathers from slipping when cleaning. For a full or queen plan to spend about $ 150.00 on sale ..January is when bedding goes on clearance if you can wait till then ( January white sales) You want one well made so the feathers don't make snow in your bedroom. You want one that you can machine wash. They will also say the OZ which is a funky measurment you want 40 - 42oz.

2. Heavy weight is only meant for camping and if you keep your heat in the house at 45 or 50F at night. Light weight is for the hotter months when you have the AC cranked.

3. Fill power under 500 is economy quality over 500 is good quality 600 better quality 700 best quality 800....is only produced in 2 places in the world and super expensive.

4. Duvet cover sets make sure they are machine washable. They come with 2 shams and a huge empty pillowcase looking thing for the Comforter/Duvet.

5. If your bed is a full get one that will fit a queen. You will have the comforter for many many years you want it to fit a larger bed if you get one.

This would be a good one to purchase http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=328090&trackingCat=28898&cmexplore=&PseudoMasterProdID=318355&PseudoCat=28898

This would not be good as it is dry clean only http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=512980&CategoryID=28898

As far as a duvet cover. Get what ever fits your decor. Make sure it can be washed. They close with zippers or buttons or ribbon or velcro. Velcro can be a pain as it needs to be picked out after a while.

The only other information I can tell you is there are some people that are alergic to down. Make sure you and your sleeping partener are not. The best down alternative fill is 100% organic cotton.

Care if this comforter means you wash it seasonally. Drying it will take 2 cycles. Put clean tennis balls in the dryer to fluff it. Take it out of the dryer shake and stuff it back in several times during the drying process so it does not get over heated in one area.

I live in Canada. It's currently -28F outside. I hate cold. We keep the heat 62F at night. We use a medium weight down and flannel or microfiber sheets in the winter and it's toasty under that cover that feels like air :)
