I am a student, who lives on a limited income. I just moved and needed something to cover-up my box springs and frame. WOW! Did I find just the right thing. I have patterned ethnic print bed covers in black and off-white on my bed and another similar black and white fabric piece thrown over my headboard. My rug is a wonderful color of purple, with a boarder of flowers and butterflies in many, many colors. There is a color in one of the butterflies, that looked somewhat like the color of this bedskirt. It was marked down substantially, so I too a chance. Not only did the package come right away, but, the color blended in with the rug and gives the room the anchoring near the floor that I was looking for, along with covering up the mechanics of the bed. I love it! The design and workmanship are superb. My bedroom is now so cozy and, most importantly, my favorite room! Thank you so much. I'll be back!
