Bed Sheets

Add a touch of comfort with soft bed sheets

It’s hard to beat the feeling of slipping into fresh bed sheets. Not only do they offer comfort and warmth, bed sheets can also be a great way to freshen up your bedroom. Whether you want to stick to plain white or add a pop of colour, the right bed sheets can go a long way. Here’s a quick rundown of key things to keep in mind when it comes to picking your next sheet set.

Find the best bed sheets to fit your space

From standard single bed sheets through to super king bed sheets, there is a range of sizes to suit every bed, like king single sheets and king bed sheets. Choosing the right fit is key to a comfortable sleep. A well-fitted sheet will stay smooth and secure, while one too big can bunch up, and one too small may slip off the corners. 
If you don’t know the size of your mattress, simply measure it and compare the dimensions with standard bed sizes. You can ensure a comfortable and peaceful night’s sleep with correctly fitted sheets.

A sheet set to suit your bed

There are two main types of bed sheets: fitted sheets and flat sheets. A fitted sheet goes on first, usually over a mattress protector or mattress topper. It has elastic edges that hug the corners of your mattress and can help provide a smooth and cosy feel to your bed. Fitted sheets also come in different depths to suit all mattresses, so it’s with checking if your mattress needs a deeper fitted sheet. 
A top sheet or a flat sheet is a larger, rectangular sheet that is placed over the sleeper and acts as a barrier between them and the quilt. These sheets can be left loose or tucked in, depending on how you like to style your bed.

Consider cotton or linen blends

When choosing your bed sheets, you’ll be met with various options, with two popular choices being cotton and linen blends. 

Cotton blend sheets are known to be breathable and lightweight, perfect for warm sleepers. There are various thread counts and material blends like bamboo cotton and linen bamboo. If you want a little more comfort, then you can’t go past a linen blend. Soft and breathable, linen blend sheets are great for creating an understated and comfortable look.

Bed Sheets FAQ

What is the best type of sheet set?

The softness and feel of your sheets depend on a few factors, including thread count, the quality of the yarn, the type of material, and how the sheets are made. While some people enjoy the smooth finish of bamboo, others prefer the breathable comfort of cotton sheet sets. There’s also growing interest in modern fibres like Tencel, known for their sustainability and gentle feel. With so many options available, it comes down to what feels best for you.

How many sets of bed sheets should I own?

It's a good idea to have at least two sets of sheets per bed, if not three. That way, when you’re washing one set, you can put fresh sheets on the bed straight away, with one spare. Some people may prefer to have a few extra sets on hand in case of spills or unexpected guests, but if you have limited storage space, two sets may be the perfect amount.

Are fitted or flat sheets better?

Both fitted and flat sheets play an important role in your bedding ensemble. Sheet sets generally include both types, and it’s recommended that you use them together, as they each serve a purpose. While both are designed to increase your comfort, fitted sheets provide a layer between you and your mattress (or mattress protector), and flat sheets do the same between you and your blanket or quilt.
