Great bed sheet buying tips from Love To Know:
First, you need to figure out which size bed needs new sheets. You can buy twin, full (or double), queen, king and California king sized bed sheets. Usually, it is sufficient to know the size of your bed, but some people actually measure the length and width of their bed to ensure they purchase bed sheets that fit correctly.- The bottom sheet is called the fitted sheet. You can buy three kinds of fitted bed sheets. One kind has an elastic edge all the way around for easy fitting over the sides and corners of the mattress. These are the most expensive types of fitted sheets. A second type has elastic along the sides, and the third has elastic only at the corners. The type with elastic at the corners is least expensive, but often the most difficult to fit over a mattress.
- If you buy a set of pre-packaged bed sheets, make sure there are enough pillow cases inside the package to meet your needs. Many pre-packaged sets, especially for twin beds, come with only one pillow case. If you have two pillows, you will need to buy another case separately.
- Cotton is the primary fabric of choice used in bed sheets. Cotton breathes easily and feels soft against the skin. There are, however, different types of cotton to consider. Egyptian cotton is especially soft and has been used in high-end sheets for decades. Pima cotton is grown in the U.S. South, and is both soft and durable. You can, of course, also buy cotton/polyester blend sheets, particularly if you are concerned about shrinkage or wrinkling. Blends are also likely to be less expensive than 100% cotton bed sheets.

Are round mattresses any better?
0 Comments Published by Lilian November 25th, 2007 in Interesting Mattress, MATTRESS FUN, MATTRESS News, MATTRESS Shopping.
Some people go for round mattresses for the sake of aesthetic. A round bed looks different, definitely. It’s a deviation from traditional beds we have. But in terms of comfort, is a round mattress any better than a four sided one? Science would say that a round surface would give you more space. And in the case of the mattress, more space means more freedom in movement, especially when you have a partner to sleep with.
But the bottom line is, whatever the shape of your mattress, how a person feels while sleeping on it is of utmost importance. Can you relax better on a round bed than a traditional mattress? As with choosing your new mattress, it all comes down to preference.
The downside to a round mattress though is the lack of beddings and bed sheets for it. So, owning one might mean you have to have everything customized.

Shopping for Bed Sheets
0 Comments Published by Lilian September 24th, 2007 in MATTRESS Accessories, MATTRESS FUN, MATTRESS News, MATTRESS Shopping.Why is it a good idea to buy bed sheets as a set?
- It’s a more economical purchase since sets come up cheaper than buying per piece or individually
- You have a uniformed design or pattern. If you buy more than one set, you can follow through the same motif and mix and match.
- Most sets already include a comforter which is what you need for the cold season. Besides a complimentary comforter can improve the look of your bedroom.
