Your bed is the main focus and important piece of furniture in your bedroom. Dress it up with beautiful, freshly laundered bedding and linens that create a comfortable and pleasing space.
We recommend you wash your sheet sets regularly. However, it is a personal preference on how often you choose to do so. It is a good idea to launder them weekly to remove any dirty or dust. Warm water is recommended to avoid any shrinking of fibers, however, this depends on the type of fabric your sheets are made out of. All patterned or printed pillowcases should be washed inside out to protect the color. Always check the care label prior to washing. Tumble dry sheets according to the label and remove them before they are 100% dry to minimize wrinkles. Make sure the sheets are dry before storing them - this could cause mold and mildew growth. When buying sheets, don't always be tempted to buy the high thread counts (200 to 400 is fine). The quality of the fabric matters more - look for 100% combed cotton type sheets - these produce a finer sheet than carded cotton. Replace sheets when there are signs of aging, stains or frayed hems. Keep sheets stored in a cool, dry closet or drawer. The shelves should be lined with acid-free tissue paper to keep fabric from yellowing. We recommend you do NOT store your sheets in plastic containers.
For all other top of the bed items - Comforter, Duvet Covers, Duvet Inserts, Bed Caps, Bedspreads etc... we recommend you wash those once every 6 months. If the weather is nice outside hang them up to get that "fresh linen" smell to freshen them up instead of washing them. Always..ALWAYS.. check the care and washing labels on these items. Some items may be only dry cleaned. To keep your mattress, duvet inserts or pillows protected, encase them in zippered covers (protective encasement's) This will keep your pillows fresh and keep allergens at bay. Pillows should be washed at least twice a year (check the label for care and washing instructions) . From luxurious, eco-friendly bamboo sheets to 100% organic cotton to luxurious Egyptian cotton duvets, there are a wide selection of fabrics available for any and all types of bedding.
