How to Choose Bed Linens

Bedding serves three purposes: beauty, function and inspiration. The bed is the focal point of your bedroom. Start with the sheets when choosing a new ensemble. Once you have made this selection, then buy the bed covering.

There are several choices for a bed covering. A coverlet is a very thin fabric that usually layers on top of a blanket. It does not cover the sleeping pillows nor go to the floor, so you will need a bed skirt if using a coverlet. Or, you may also choose to use a blanket without a coverlet. Bedspreads are woven fabrics that go to the floor. Comforters are two layers of fabric with a layer of stuffing in the middle. They may or may not be quilted. Duvets are removable and washable coverings for comforters, to keep them clean and extend their lifespan.

Pillows are the top layer of your bedding ensemble. There are two types of pillows. The first style is open on one end, such as sleep pillows. Sleep pillows are rectangular and medium-sized. The second type pillow, a sham pillow, has flange on all four sides, so it does not open.

Euro pillows are large, square shams that help to hide the sleep pillows. Decorative pillows have colors and patterns that complement the main theme of your room decor. They are smaller than euro pillows but available in a range of shapes and sizes. Bolsters are tubular pillows that hold up the sleep and decorative pillow display.
