How to choose textiles for your bedroom

Fortunately, today you can choose textiles for any style, be it modern or gentle romance. Curtains, draperies, carpets and bedding - all this gives room to the imagination.

• Bed linen with coverlet. The main thing in the bedroom is the bed, so the first thing you need to do is dress it. If you are thinking of buying a bedspread, then the bed can be chosen in any color, with or without patterns. But as for the bedspread, it should match the color and texture with other decorative elements in the bedroom.
• Carpets and skins. To create coziness in the bedroom, you can resort to warm sheep skins. They are recommended to be laid on the floor or placed on a chair. Carpets are also necessary: ​​in a small bedroom a couple of small rugs will be enough, but in a spacious room you can choose a large carpet to match the color of the curtains and bedspreads.
• Curtains complete the entire look of textiles in the bedroom; their color should match the carpet and bedspread. You can turn to light fabric with a discreet pattern. For example, you can find curtains with stripes and match their colors to a bedspread, pillows, and carpet.

Basic materials in the manufacture of products

The fundamental factor that determines all the characteristics of bed linen is the material from which it is made. The main raw materials in the production of accessories are:

• cotton;
• linen;
• silk;
• bamboo;
• viscose;
• polyester;
• microfiber.

Many modern consumers are confident that only underwear made from natural materials can be comfortable and safe. This belief is only partly true. Natural raw materials have many obvious advantages. Cotton, linen, silk, bamboo have excellent hygroscopicity and are hypoallergenic materials.

However, bedding made only from natural fibers does not have the necessary practicality. A small percentage of synthetics increases service life, reduces creasing, and ensures color retention during washing.
