Laura Ashley Comforter
Life’s A Bed Of Roses With A Laura Ashley Comforter
A Laura Ashley comforter is the quintessential accessory
in English country homes. The late British designer
founded a textile empire that produces clothes, home
wares and many other products beside the Laura Ashley
comforter.
Laura Ashley started making headscarves in 1953 with her
husband Bernard, and their creations were given an
unexpected boost when Audrey Hepburn wore one in the
film `A Roman Holiday’.
Today, Laura Ashley is still best known for delicate
colors and prints that bring a romantic touch to any
home. The Laura Ashley comforter is a breathtaking work
of art, but it is her Victorian roses that epitomize
romance and are perfect for a comforter in a feminine
bedroom.
Among the new range of rose patterned comforters from
Laura Ashley is Garden Rose, an unusual rose design in
that the main color is green and the floral print is
mixed with fresh striped borders. This design is perfect
for a bedroom where a light spring atmosphere is wanted.
A more traditional Laura Ashley comforter rose design is
the range of the Josephine, a beautiful antique pink
rose print with a delicate blue trim. This design would
be fresh and romantic in a young girl’s bedroom.
For the lover of country prints, there is a charming
patchwork Laura Ashley comforter in a blend of small
checks, delicate florals and fresh spring prints. This
design would be the perfect complement to a `shabby
chic’ bedroom.
But the best thing about Laura Ashley is that the range
is so vast you can carry the Laura Ashley theme through
to the walls, furnishings and accents.
The Laura Ashley ranges of drapes and wallpapers come in
many different shades and designs to complement your
Laura Ashley comforter. For example, you can choose
fabric for your drapes from the wild roses of the
Arundel design, or the neat tea roses of the Bibi
design. You can also find the Bibi design in wallpaper,
and the wild roses in a wallpaper border. To go with the
Garden Rose Laura Ashley comforter, there are a range of
lovely green wallpapers, such as Aster, in Sage Olive
and Heath Green.
If you prefer paint on your walls, Laura Ashley’s home
color collection in matt, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss
and gloss paints are made to complement the Laura Ashley
comforter. The paint comes in shades of Cowslip Yellows,
Berry Reds and Sapphire Blues redolent of an English
country garden.
Laura Ashley furnishings include beds and cabinets in
both modern and traditional styles. The Clifton half
moon chest of drawers in cream with gold accents and the
airy white Granada daybed would team perfectly with any
Laura Ashley comforter.
Give your rose filled bedroom the right glow with a
graceful Laura Ashley silver lamp base in the shape of a
rose branch and a white shade with appliquéd roses.
Finally, add some rose fragrance in the Ellina hand
painted perfume bottle with a red rose motif and the
delicious Christmas Rose room spray.
With a Laura Ashley comforter your life can be a bed of
roses!
