Summer Inspiration
Summer is finally here and I’m so happy with the new items I’ve designed for the line. I’ve been thinking about natural fabrics and beautifully made accessories…..an ottoman to put your feet up, the perfect tray to serve cocktails, beautiful picture frames. And, I’ve been listening to your feedback on the HSN blogs. I thank you for making so many of my things customer picks and giving them a 5-star rating. Amazing!!!!
This summer, when I’m not working, I’m planning to go to Greece, Italy, maybe Uruguay, and will be hitting lots of markets, shops and seeing what the local craftspeople are making — so keep checking back to see what I come up with from all of that inspiration!
Live well,

Nate,
I’m looking for an inexpensive curtain panel in cotton or linen. You did a make-over and used a Ballard Design product which looked great, but limited color scheme. Wondering if you will be coming out with any panels in a $40-$50 price point?
Nate, I love your towels in lilac- great color and the towels feel wonderful and wear well, even after several washings. I would love, love, love a set of sateen (1st choice) really soft (2nd choice) sheets in the same color or a color in that lilac-type shade. PLEASE.
NEED HELP!!! I’ve HAD to move back with parents due to serious complicatioms from 47 yrs of diabetes. My bedroom is my home. I like soothing colors, no florals,stripes or patterns on my bedding.I have smoky blue and gold carpet squares so my wheelchair won’t ruin it.What colors can I use on my bed,pillows & curtains? My sight is bad so sometimes colors just doesn’t look right. I hope you can help.Thanks even if u can’t.b
Nate – What if you and all your co-horts at HSN would travel around the USA and find items, or order items made right here, putting our work force back to work, thereby helping our economy get back and by employing more Americans you will be developing new customers for HSN. I have been real disappointed with the quality of products from HSN lately and have noticed that even Christmas decoraations are made in China. Put America to work – not the Chineese.
I have so long appreciated your work. I just opened my bed set and am disappointed. The duvet stuffing is sooo heavy and I agree with a previous poster that the material wrinkles badly. It is too late to return it, so I will try to use the duvet as a spread and take the filling out for disposal. I love the color, the embroidery pattern, etc. — but am disappointed no end at the quality of the material.
Nate, Nate, Nate!!! Your pillows are the bomb! What terrific colors, textures and accents in the sequin decor. My bed has never looked so bright and cheery. And I got enough to add to my sofa as well! Your wooden bowls and stone accents work wonderfully in my bath & living room too.
Please add in an occasional lace trimmed sheet to your collection and some in bright colors such as red, bright blue or green. Keep up the great work at HSN!
Nate
I luv u & your designs-I am horribly disappointed in the NB comforter from BB&Beyond I luv the color & design but the fabric is horrible!It wrinkles terribly-Tried everything to get the wrinkles out but they come back daily I don’t sleep with-just fold it down-make the bed next day, they’re back My bedroom looks so messy I did’t take it back right away I thought I could fix it I can’t I built my whole bedroom around this comforter.I’m sick I follow u-think your the best-really disappointed
Nate – I just received my CalKing bedding and sheets – I am in heaven – my wife and I could not beleive the quality of both sets – the bedding fits perfectly on our bed – we have a tall mattress and the sheets fit like a dream – the color is beautiful in our room – we bought the brown bedding and paired it with the pale blue sheets – our room color is chocolate and blue – so the combination is so rich in our room – This was my first purchace on HSN and will not be our last.Thanks Nate!
Nate Berkus bedding is more than 5 stars! The attention to detail is remarkable. Help me add drama, please Nate. Ivory carpet, ivory chairs, navy leather couch, warm yellow vaulted walls. Art is, you guessed it, ivory, and silver which balances the proportions of the walls. I gravitate to black and white. Something has to change!
I am looking for sheets that are for cool and warm temps. I understand that Nate has these on hand please let me know if they are still available.
thanks Sue
Hi Nate:
I have been looking for either a duvet or comforter that will fit a king size bed,I need atleast 110 in.wide,I want modern lines maybe white with a sage stripe something like the today special but in white and sage. Any sugestions, also I think that you should add the measurements in the description of your bedding,it will help people. Enough of me, please don’t change,I love your personality, your style, I am also into clean lines,natural materials.Thank you for your creations.
Hi Nate,
I loved your show today and the beautiful TS! I’m wondering if you are considering adding twin size bedding to your collection. I have a day bed, live in a very small apt and can’t use a full or queen. It would be really nice to have the option to purchase quality bedding instead of teeny-bopper designs. I would really like to try your sheets but alas, they are not available in twin.
I am wondering if you are going to bring back your colored duvets. They sold out before I was able to get one and I have been impatiantly waiting for their return.
