anne,
yes, heat does change the color..usually, colored clothes should not be put under strong direct sunlight. if not, the color will fade..
tlc,
if you're talking abt skirting, personally i feel that it's very troublesome lor..have to wash. more over according to friend, it's quite diff to find matching colors..so, she usually get those versatile colors..
somehow, i just dun like the frilly willy look of the skirting leh..once u put skirting, it look so feminine that u can't use those contemporary or zen design besheet..it fix the look of the whole bed.
