Do you look at adverts and home decor magazines and sigh wistfully at the beautiful beds that look so inviting and comfortable? If your bed is not looking ready for its next photo shoot, you have come to the right place.
This blog post will guide you step-by-step through the art of making your bed perfectly, emphasising the importance of locally manufactured quality covers and bed sheets for sale at affordable prices online.
1. Preparing Your Bed
Start from scratch by stripping off all your linens, including covers, bed sheets, pillows and cases. Let your mattress air out while you gather clean, fresh linen for your bed.
2. Layering Your Linens
- Before adding any linens, start with a good-quality mattress protector. This important barrier protects your mattress from stains, spills, sweat and potential allergens. It will extend the lifespan of your mattress and provide you with a hygienically clean sleeping environment.
- A fitted sheet comes next for a neat and tidy bed. Make sure it fits snugly and is wrinkle-free. If you prefer a flat sheet here, that will also work, but make sure to tuck it securely all around the mattress.
- The flat sheet comes next (or second flat sheet if you did not use a fitted one). Drape it carefully over the bed and tuck this one securely at the foot of the bed.
- Slip your duvet inner into its cover and spread neatly over the centre of the bed.
3. Perfect Pillows
Several pillow options are available to achieve the perfect look and cater to your comfort. Mix and match these options:
- Standard pillows: Place two or four standard pillows at the head of the bed.
- Euro or continental pillows: Position these larger pillows behind your standard pillows for the best effect.
- Decorative pillows: Add small pillows or bolsters in front of your standard pillows to increase the comfort levels of your bed.
4. The Final Touches
To complete the look, you can add throw blankets or bed runners in complementary colours. Each element can be arranged to suit your personal style and preferences. Review your layout and make any final adjustments. Consider adding personal touches like a photo, piece of art or scented candle to the bedside cabinet.
