Meet Ofelia.

Ofelia is the newest IKEA purchase to grace our home.

On a quick evening trip to the Meca-of-cheap-home-decor, I spotted Ofelia as I rushed by the bedding section and I immediately thought of our blanket-less platform bed. Fingers-crossed, we are hopefully hosting our first guests in a couple of weekends, so bedding has been on the forefront of my mind. For only $20, this was a deal too good to pass up. So I took Ms. Ofelia home with me...

When folded up, this ruffly blanket somewhat resembles those teeny tiny shirts that stretch really big... that were popular in the 90s...that I may or may not have seen recently in a $5 tub at Walgreens (true story). 

Nonetheless, the blanket stretches out nicely and adds the perfect amount of femininity to our rustic-industrial pallet bed. 

And some close ups:

And one final shot of Ofelia, for the road....

Happy Weekend, All!
