I finally caved

So I have this weird habit... I watch the shopping networks like HSN and QVC for fun. I just love the fact that it's all live and there aren't commercial breaks every few minutes (although the whole thing is one big commercial. Sometimes I like laughing with/ at the crazy lady with the bedazzed sweatshirts, sometimes I pick apart the "unbelievably low" prices that turn out to be bad deals, and sometimes I sit back and enjoy the lady with the smooth voice talking about her sparkly cocktail ring. 

The strangest thing is that, in the years that I've watched the shopping networks, I've never once bought anything... until this week.

What did I get? Well, of course it was something from my other favorite Nate:

I've been slowly collecting pieces for my bedroom (I've shown you the lamps, bench, and a nightstand) and I actually needed a new duvet cover, shams, and skirt. Somewhere along the line I decided that the black of the nightstands (still unpainted, sorry) would look great with a nice, bright blue.

Nate Berkus's collection for HSN not only had the perfect blue, but came with white shams and a skirt (I have a thing against super matchy-matchy bedding sets)! After looking around at all of my other options for weeks, $69 for the perfect set seemed to be a great deal.

I'm excited to start pulling the master bedroom together!

Oh, and for those of you wondering about my half Ironman training... I do an average of two workouts per day (Mon- yoga; Tues- run AM/ swim PM; Wed- run AM/ bike PM; Thurs- run AM/ swim PM; Fri- bike PM; Sat- run/ swim AM; Sun- bike)... yes, it's tiring and hard to get the energy to do diy projects!

Have you ever ordered anything from a tv shopping network? How did you find the quality/ pricing?
