I have been getting new bedding since I was raped in my bedroom, in my bed, and I’m still living in the apartment. I had super soft flannel sheets from Target, which I threw away and ordered a new set. I bought a plain white comforter from TJX and picked out a beautiful duvet.
The duvet is from Crane and Canopy. Today, the box arrived at work. I was so excited! I opened it. First, the duvet and shams were wrapped together in grey tissue paper and fastened to a little pouch of lavender potpourri. (I LOVE the smell of LAVENDER ). In the box with my items was an envelope with my recipient and a handwritten personalized note thanking me for my purchase and saying they hoped I enjoyed the lavender!
Along with that envelope was another card, like a postcard. There is a picture of it below. Part of the proceeds from every bedding purchase goes to providing women of domestic violence with bedding! I couldn’t believe it. What are the odds? I’m so picky about what I like for bedding, and this company had the only duvet cover I liked. I searched high and low, all over the internet and in actual stores, until I found “the one.” I’m so happy that my purchase is helping someone!
