There's just something about pictures of bedding. Sheets, comforters, shams and pillows, pillows, pillows! Cozy, cuddly, dreamy. They just get you in the mood to... *yawn*. Take a look at some bedding setups from CB2, Anthropologie and Delia's after the jump, complete with a patent-pending sheep rating system: The fewer critters you have to count before you fall asleep, the better!
Remember: The fewer the sheep, the better the bedding.
Brightly colored bedding can bring some oomph to the bedroom, okay? Digging everything here except the ankle-busting bed.

This is some kind of test, clearly. If you are under the age of 21 and your favorite movie is Moulin Rouge, this bedding is acceptable. Otherwise: No.

Too cutesy? Too fun? Too girly? Not if you choose the blue or the polka dots, instead of both. But why not leave it the way it is: Can you really ever have too much fun in the bedroom?

While this is a dreamy bed, it's a wee bit plain. Plus, putting it in the lobby of an abandoned hotel might make it hard to sleep at night.
