This past Sunday, Apartment Therapy: Chicago was happy to be part of The Tribune Home & Garden section. Cindy Dampier asked us to participate in a roundup of items called New Year, New View, filled with things to help freshen up homes at the start of 2008. We chose new bedding. We think a set of fresh bed linens is a great pick-me-up - and our top choice was this colorful set from local design duo, Unison.
