Star Wars Bedroom Maybe Redeems Pottery Barn. Maybe.

Justin and I have had a $50 gift certificate to Pottery Barn since our wedding last May, and though I realize that their merchandise can be really nice, it's surprising how little you can get with $50 at that place. We've walked around that store more than once just trying to find something that's under $50 and worth spending money on, but so far, no luck. How can we pass on a $69.99 Bowl with Dominos, you ask? It's surprisingly easy, actually!

Why, then, does Pottery Barn Kids have so much cool stuff? I was on their site before Christmas looking for presents for my ever-growing horde of nephews and found the above Star Wars Bedroom. It comes complete with a Millennium Falcon quilt, the below sheets, and, unless I'm mistaken, a glowing golden child that looks like Anakin Skywalker. And did you see the Galaxy Far Far Away pillow? It'd be a great lead-in to self-important science fiction dreams. Not that I have those all the time, or anything.

I still completely love that bedroom set! The only thing that keeps me from buying is that I just can't figure out what we would do with the little boy.

Oh, come on, you can always use more orphans. They're great at washing dishes!

I had those sheets when they first came out... way back A LONG LONG TIME AGO...

Far, far away?

i totally had those sheets on my first "big girl" bed. i inherited them from my older brother, which made them the coolest thing ever, and i used them until they were completely falling apart and shredding all over.

i might have to get them for nostalgia's sake. that and the free orphan. my floors really need to be swept and mopped, and the bathtub could use a good once over, too.
