The queen-sized bed above features a layered bedding arrangement that’s both cozy and inviting. At the foundation, you’ll find a sheet set providing a soft and breathable base layer. Building upon this foundation is the waffle bed blanket, adding a touch of texture and visual interest to the overall design. Next, the duvet cover set and insert bring warmth and comfort to the space, while the quilt set adds an extra layer of coziness and style.

There’s something special about combining window shades with drapery, creating a multi-dimensional look that adds texture, color, and warmth to a room. When done thoughtfully, this layering can elevate the space to new heights.

One of the benefits of incorporating drapery over window shades is the added depth it brings. Not only do you get the functionality of controlling light and privacy, but you also gain an extra layer of visual interest.

This can be especially impactful in larger rooms or spaces with high ceilings, where the additional texture can help anchor the space.

If you’re looking to bring this layered look into your own home, there are many options available. From natural fabrics like cotton and linen to synthetic materials like silk and velvet, the possibilities are endless. You can also experiment with different patterns and colors to create a unique look that reflects your personal style.
