In a recent article we featured some great summer colors for the bedroom. We are adding to that article with more colorful bed linen sets in this article. The Marimekko Lehtimaja line features botanical pattern bed linens that have a tasteful amount of color and a pattern that has more staying power than one season. I know for many people a floral statement can be too strong so this is where a botanical pattern can be more gender neutral and appeal to people that are not fans of floral patterns. Inspiration for this pattern came from designer Maija Isola of Finland who worked as head designer of Marimekko's interior fabrics division until 1987. These colorful bed linens are made of soft cotton in 300 thread count. Prices: $30-$120. Buy product: here.

Many of us have purchased Tempur-Pedic mattresses and moved away from the traditional bed and box springs design. One transition that can be difficult to make is adjusting to the new style pillows. I was able to make the transition, but my wife could not get comfortable with the unique Tempur-Pedic neck supporting design. One solution may be the ComfortPillow that you see in the picture. This pillow is just like the ones that we grew up with, but have the foam construction. This shape is more like what she has used her whole life. If the pillow has been a struggle to get used to I hope that this style may be a solution. Prices: Standard $129; Queen Standard $159. Buy product: here.
