apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I just got back from the United Feather & Down Tent Sale and this is definitely a worthwhile stop if you are in the market for something down-filled.

I have been looking for a summer-weight down comforter and, like most things, you get what you pay for. I initally grabbed one from the imperfect bin that was $29.99. One of the clerks pointed out that it was mostly feathers (not down) though, so it was not very soft or light.

He directed me to two other choices, a down-filled blanket in a poly cover was only a little more $$, but the poly doesn't breathe like cotton. I eventually found one for $79 that should be perfect. With the coupon I printed from the website, I got a down pillow for $10.

Thanks for the tip, Janel!!
