Duvet or not Duvet, that is the question.  Do you use them? I’ve never used one, until now!  Our comforter on our bed was getting some wear and although it’s a great blanket I was afraid it would start to wear to the point we’d have to replace it.  That is when I came across the option of a Duvet Cover.  I found one on ebay for about $15 so I figured it was a cheap experiment.
The duvet cover I ordered came with 2 pillow shams as well, which meant we HAD to buy 2 new pillows for the bed too (I love pillows so this was a sacrifice I was willing to make)  After watching a video of how to use a duvet cover I was all ready. But the one I ordered didn’t have the ties in the corner, so we’ll see how well it holds the comforter in place inside.   So far so good.

Basically a duvet cover is like a big pillow slip for your comforter.  It buttons closed at one end.  It’s a cheap way to change out the color and style of your bed for the seasons without having to spend a ton of money or store bulky comforters.

*side note- I can’t wait to get a new camera!!!  Thanks for baring with the horrible pics.
