I’m honored to be a guest blogger for Country Curtain’s Home & Happiness blog, and to be part of their Home For The Holidays Giveaway!

Since every room at Connecticut Country House is getting decked out for the holidays, and as a lover of matelasse and buffalo checks, dressing my bed in Country Curtains classics is a natural!

In The Coop, our Master Bedroom, I dressed the bed on an all-white foundation of silky smooth Hemstitch sheets, and  layered in their pretty snow white Merrywood Matelasse Coverlet. I just love the play of textures. Buffalo Check flanged shams, with matching decorative pillows, provides pops of color, and bold scale that gives the bed – and the room – a modern twist. Love it.

If you love this look too, you now have the opportunity to win this Merrywood Matelasse coverlet or bedspread in the size of your choice, as well as a set of Buffalo Check Pillow Shams in the color of your choice. Just look for the Country Curtains post on my Nora Murphy Country House Facebook page, and please leave a comment! That’s it!

(P.S. The contest ends December 8 at Midnight EST! So go comment now!)

Wishing you the best of luck and a wonderful holiday season!

Love, Nora

    I grew up in CT looking at Country Curtain catalogues with my mom. I remember picking out my curtains for my “new room” when I was 16 (I’m now 43)! I love their classic style and the combination with the black and red buffalo check with the Matalesse coverlet are a perfect Christmas refresh. It’s so my style. Thanks for sharing and what a lucky winner someone will be!!!

    Your house intrigued me the first time I found your blog, spent days devouring every picture! The matelasse bedspread that’s been covering my bed for 26 years might need to be replaced this year(?) Buffalo check is always a winner. Merry Christmas.
