Make Your Bed ...

Have I ever mentioned how I cannot leave the house in the morning unless my bed is made? I mean sometimes I simply don't have time, but seriously 99.9% of the time it's made. I read somewhere once that making your bed before leaving the house sets the tone for the day. I think there's some truth to that.

Speaking of beds, I've had four post beds on the brain lately. And I'm loving the simple, clean lines of this one from The Parker. I couldn't find it on the Jonathan Adler site, does anyone know where it can be found? Mackenzie?:)

Hope everyone had a great first weekend of summer!

Ooh, this bed is nice!! It's taken me some time to make it a habit of making my bed every morning, but now I feel that compulsion to do it.
I like that- that it sets your tone for the day. I think that's true too.
Happy Monday!! :) Have a wonderful day today!!

I cannot leave the house if I haven't made the beds either, there's no worse thing in the world than coming back and sleeping in an un-made bed.

I love this bed, so dreamy!

Happy Monday!

my mom wouldn't let us leave for school unless our bed is made! i agree it sets the tone..however, right at this moment my bed is not.

Love it! I'm usually good about making the bed before I leave, but I can really only do it if my husband is up and moving around before I leave! He's a PhD student so he's likely to be in bed late. :)

I am the same way!! I think it is because my mom always said it was the first thing you need to do when you get out of bed or it will never get done!:)

I read that too!!!! I have to make my bed every morning & cleanup the house before I leave... If I don't I feel my day will be crazy & wild. Hate that!

WOW... Haydee I feel kind of close to you right now. lol

* I've been dying to go to the parker for a little quiet vaca away from my little ones... Hopefully soon!

xoxo,

I am the same way!! My mama always said no matter how messy your room is, it will look neat and tidy if your bed is made!!

I can't leave my room in the morning without making the bed, so I know precisely how you feel.

And it drives me crazy when I see something I like but I have no idea where it's from. Hope your bed mystery gets solved!

I love that room! My bigger problem would be getting out of the bed in the first place. :)

I am impressed by you.

Gorgeous bed and room in general and I agree, when my bed is unmade I feel weird.

I always get made fun of for insisting on making my bed in the morning! My husband just scoffs at the whole notion. But it's nice to see that someone else out there is a bed-maker like me... Great bed, great post. Love your blog. Be well!
