I could list em all day. Just enter 'willow' and 'quilt' and search or 'spode' and 'quilt' and search or 'blue' and 'white' 'quilt' and search. You can also replace the word quilt with the word 'comforter' if you would rather have a comforter or 'comforter sets' in place of quilt and it will show you pillows and curtains to match that design of comforter. You could buy those seperately to accent.

GL.

I just finally ordered my new bedding. I got a quilt and a comforter because after looking for over a year and not finding what I wanted, I found a place that had a comforter and a matching quilt sold seperately. So what could I do? Lol.

And I redid my two other bedrooms in the house. Now I am through for life. If I change my taste I will just go sleep in the other bedroom. I did them all differently, lol.

Whatta great feeling to have a room you like but whatta great pain finding everything.

Carol asks…

How can you clean soot from Porcelain and Dishwares?

My parents had a bad fire... it destroyed 90% of their antiques and collectibles... over $500,000 worth. They have found a few collector plates and some precious moments type figurines that are intact, but covered in soot. Is there anything that can clean them... or are they trash too?

Ling answers:

Hot dishsoap and oxiclean let them soak for an hour and then rub with soft cloth under the water.Good Luck!
