Escape to Bollywood: Sari Bedcovers

082107_cohabitat.jpg

Bollywood films have been gaining popularity in the US for the past few years, and if you ever have a chance to see one, be prepared because there is a very good chance that you'll witness singing, dancing, and, above all, bright enough colors to sear your retinas. And we mean that in the best way possible.

 
 

If you're fearless with color and want to bring a little India exotic into your home, these sari bedcovers are the real deal. Forget the cookie-cutter "ethnic" throws from Urban Outfitters, these covers are made from antique saris with traditional and ethnic motifs, pieced together in patchwork designs.

These bedcovers are sold exclusively through Cohabitat, a great store with reasonable prices in San Diego's Hillcrest neighborhood.

I'd also highly recommend heading out to Artesia's Little India, where you can get authentic Indian decor accessories and fabrics without the sharp markup. And don't get me started on the food!
