...Bud doesn't like Anni and her version of dominoes! There's a reason behind it all...
The carpeting throughout the house is a deep dark, turquoise blue. For me, I do not like walls that are as sterile, hospital anti-septic, white throughout a home. White, like a mundane office building or the modernity of today...I want COLOR!! Most of the walls here at Anni's Abode, with an open floor plan, are painted the exact color of the carpeting. The master bed and bathroom however are a light lime green [through my computer, the walls look pea green, but they ARE lime green]. Still, it has the blue carpeting. I have looked online over the past several years for color coordinated bedding, Amazon, Home Goods, Kohls, Target, Macy's, Wayfair, etc. and oh so much more! I've even walked the aisles of stores in town, physically. Years of effort and disappointment. Years of looking for the color combination was a huge undertaking. Still, Nada, Zilch, Nien, nothing. Even Walmart!! And, I detest that store for the most part. Recently, one day, however, for some unknown reason, I stopped at Walmart, I got what I was after in my cart, and went up the bedding aisle. Lo and Behold...Dark Blue, lime green, and floral! Just what I wanted all along. I needed a KING. Did they have one? Yes!! I was nearly in tears...seriously. The colors I need without having to repaint walls, etc. Happy Camper. Bought it! Sold separately were two pillow shams that match also. Yay. Got it home, gladly tore the yucky bedding off the bed and opened the quilt and shams. Made the bed. It just matched the carpet and walls perfectly. Walmart came through for me. Did I say I was elated?!! Oh oh...something was missing tho. More color coordination! Throw pillows...yep, throw pillows. Off I go shopping. Target, Home Goods, Walmart, Kohls, Steinmart, TJ Maxx, Marshalls etc. Found two dark blue at Home Goods. No red. No green. At those stores. Went to other establishments...nothing. The last stop, AT HOME -warehouse- and found the colors I wanted. Spent way too much just for one bed. Bud hates the domino effect when Anni leaves home with her debit card!!
