Most likely, everyone will agree that family happiness is built from small 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 hinders it. One of these little things that spouses sometimes undeservedly ignore is bed linen.

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 use a large selection of sets from many brands.

By scouring store shelves and e-marketplace catalogs, you'll find plenty of great bedding options. At the same time, the buyer is not limited in the choice of colors and materials. But keep in mind that when choosing family underwear, sizes are also very important.

You don't 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 canpurchase 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 the needs. First, it is worth saying how the concept of a family set differs from a double set.

Perhaps you have seen pictures on the packages, which show a man and a woman lying on the bed, and between them is a child. In this way, manufacturers want to indicate that you have a set for the whole family. In fact, family bed linen, the dimensions of which cannot be called strictly fixed, differs from double bed linen only in the presence of two duvet covers. Everything else is the same. But this small difference makes a big difference.

How often a comic, and sometimes serious struggle for one blanket unfolds between spouses. Although such a thing unites the spouses to some extent, the inconvenience sometimes still outweighs all the pluses. Therefore, bed linen (family set) 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 - no 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. Pillow cases toostandard. Their size is either 50 x 70 or 70 x 70.

Of course, 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. By carefully taking measurements, you can get a wonderful bedroom set that will decorate the room even in those cases when you do not have time to make your bed.

What else should I look out for?

A very important factor in choosing a family bedding set is size, but this criterion is not the only one. It is important to pay attention to the quality of the production of 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 there is a wide range of quality goods on the market. Having successfully selected a family set of linen (sizes, fabric, colors, etc.), you will sleep peacefully, and your he alth will be excellent in the morning.

Types of fabrics for bed linen

1. Satin. This material is made from cotton or synthetic fiber. It looks glossy with a smooth surface. At the heart of satin is a twisted thin thread of double weaving. It is on how tightly the thread is twisted that the shine of the fabric depends. Here are some benefits of satin as a bedding material:

• does not contribute to allergic reactions;
• high strength;
• does not wrinkle;
• does not changeshape during washing;
• has an attractive appearance, reminiscent of silk fabric.

2. Linen fabric. More often in our time, bed linen manufacturers have begun to use linen thread mixed with cotton, since 100% linen is very wrinkled. Such material is noted for wear resistance, lightness and strength. Linen bedding will feel a bit harsh to the touch.

3. Jacquard is a fabric produced with a slight embossing, decorated with thin thread stripes. This material is very soft, thin and smooth. It is based on a complex interweaving of threads of different thicknesses. It is this fabric that is used to create elite bedding sets. The wear resistance of jacquard is amazing: the material remains unchanged over many washes.

How to care for bed linen?

• After purchasing a new set, it must be washed, but first turn the duvet covers and pillowcases inside out.
• Dry laundry immediately after washing and iron while still slightly damp.
• To iron colored fabrics and items in dark shades, it is best to turn them inside out.
• Natural fabrics may "shrink" after the first wash, which should be indicated on the packaging.
