New Marimekko at Crate & Barrel

"A spray of Queen Anne's lace strikes a bold graphic note in this modern update of a classic photo negative design by Maija Isola, one of Marimekko ® of Finland's original designers."

With great colors and lovely use of the reverse image on white (to break the dark, dramatic chocolate bedding), this is an enviable set.

Priced from $27.95 (standard pillow sham) to $119.95 (king duvet cover). See full price list and selection here.

Who knew that they had Marimekko bedding, towels, shower curtains, etc... even loads of fabric (@ $8/yard!) at Crate & Barrel outlet?!?! I just went yesterday and got some pretty yellow floral and green floral washcloths, and also instead of buying fabric- they didn't have the green grass-like fabric I like- I bought the pillow sham for $10 (!) cut it up and framed it like I wanted to do with the fabric. It looks awesome! I was pretty proud of myself and my great deal:)

I saw that one and LOVED it. Am definitely considering it for my new home- I've been looking for new bedding for awhile. I'd been wanting something with more color, but may have to reconsider . . .

i dunno, i'm not a big fan of this print. something about it feels very heavy-handed. and it's not the brown color, i like that part.

tiffany -- i recently made some curtains from marimekko shower curtains i got at crate & barrel. worked really well -- just halved each curtain (my windows are not very large) and ran one seam down each panel to finish.

pic here if anyone's interested.

Tiffany, you rock for mentioning the outlet marimekko linens. I can't believe how cheap the duvet cover is that I just bought!!!

Nattie, your curtains are great. (So is the beagle!)

thanks for the compliments. i was going to make them from marimekko fabric, but only saw it going for $35/yd., so i thought this was a more economical solution. if i would've known that the outlet has fabric by the yard, i would've been there!

i will definitely check the outlet out soon anyway -- i haven't been to a c&b outlet since before they changed the one at halsted & north into a cb2.
