Most likely, everyone will agree that family happiness is built from little things. Some of them are more significant, others are not so important. But everything in the complex determines the home atmosphere and either promotes friendly family communication, or prevents it. One of such trifles, which sometimes undeservedly bypass the attention of the spouse, is bedding.
Importance for the interior
First of all, bedding plays an important role in shaping the interior. To give the bedroom a certain mood, you can take advantage of a wide selection of sets of many brands.
Having examined the shelves of stores and catalogs of electronic trading floors, you can find many wonderful options for bedding. Moreover, the buyer is not limited in the choice of colors and materials. But keep in mind that when choosing family lingerie, sizes are also very important.
You do not need to be an expert in interior design to say that the perception of a room depends on such a seemingly inconspicuous component as bedding. For example, to create a romantic atmosphere, you can purchase a set with a soft pink shade of fabric with an alluring and mysterious gloss. There are a lot of options to diversify the interior of the bedroom.
For couples
Surely you have an idea of what a family bedding set looks like - its dimensions can be different depending on your needs. First, it is worth saying how the concept of a family kit differs from a double.
Perhaps on the packages you saw pictures showing a man and a woman lying on the bed, and between them - a child. In this way, manufacturers want to indicate that you have a kit for the whole family. In fact, family bedding, the sizes of which cannot be called strictly fixed, differs from a double bed only in the presence of two duvet covers. The rest is the same. But this small difference changes a lot.
How often between spouses is a comic, and sometimes serious, struggle for one blanket. Although such a thing unites spouses to some extent, the inconvenience sometimes still outweighs all the advantages. Therefore, bed linen (family kit) is very useful for many couples!
How to choose?
When you buy a family bedding set, the dimensions must be taken into account. What are they? Duvet covers - not more than 1.6 x 2.2 meters. As for the sheet, its format is identical to the same element of any double set. Width - from 1.8 to 2.6 meters, and length - from 2 to 2.6 meters. Pillowcases are also standard. Their size is either 50 x 70, or 70 x 70.
Naturally, in order to choose the option that suits you, you need to take into account the dimensions of the bed, as well as the sizes of blankets and pillows. Having carefully measured, you can purchase a wonderful set for the bedroom, which will become a decoration of the room even in those cases when you do not have time to remove your bed.
What else should you pay attention to?
A very important factor by which to choose a family bedding set is size, but this criterion is not the only one. It is important to pay attention to the quality of production of the goods and the material from which it is made.
Thanks to the developed technology for the production of textile products in Russia and abroad, today on the market there is a large assortment of quality goods. Having successfully picked up a family set of underwear (sizes, fabric, colors, etc.), you will sleep peacefully, and your health in the morning will be excellent.
Types of fabrics for bedding
1. Satin. This material is made from cotton or synthetic fiber. It looks glossy with a smooth surface. Satin is based on a twisted thin double-weave thread. The gloss of the fabric depends on how much the thread is twisted. Here are some of the benefits of satin as bedding material:
- does not contribute to allergic reactions;
- possesses high durability;
- not wrinkling;
- does not change shape during washing;
- It has an attractive appearance resembling silk fabric.
2. Linen fabric. More often in our time, manufacturers of bed linen began to use linen thread mixed with cotton, since 100% linen is very wrinkled. Such material is noted for wear resistance, lightness and durability. To the touch, linen from linen will be a little harsh.
3. Jacquard - fabric produced with a small embossment, decorated with stripes of thin threads. This material is very soft, thin and smooth. It is based on a complex plexus of threads of different thicknesses. It is this kind of fabric that is used to create luxury bedding sets. The durability of the jacquard is amazing: the material remains unchanged for many washes.
How to care for bedding?
- After purchasing a new set, you must wash it, but first you should turn the covers and pillowcases inside out.
- Drying should be done immediately after washing, and ironing - while it is still a little wet.
- To iron colored fabrics and elements of dark shades, it is better to turn them inside out.
- Natural fabrics can “sit down” after the first wash, which should be indicated on the package.
