The first thing that comes into your head when you think about the most comfortable bed you have ever slept in is probably the bed set. Choosing the best bed sheets is a tough business. Basically, there are three main steps in choosing your best bed linen.

Measuring

This essential mistake is very common among people choosing sheets. The fact that you sleep on a King Size bed and you buy sheets that say “For King Size bed” doesn’t actually mean that that the sheets will fit. So get prepared before going on a sheet hunt – measure you bed carefully and write down all the measurements. This way all you will need to do is find some cozy and luxurious linen bed sheets that match the measurements that you have written down.

Thread count

Thread count is the number of threads per square inch. The most common opinion is that the bigger thread count is, the more comfortable the sheets will be, since it easy to assume that higher number means softer sheets. However, this measurement is not always reliable, since sometimes the threads can be very thin or even break and the sheets will get loose and wrinkled after only one wash.

Color theme and style

Since you know what your room and your bed looks like, you will probably not have any troubles in selecting what your bed linen should look like. Luxurious white bed linen, polka dotted or striped linen bed sets – the choice is up to you. Match the color scheme to the colors of your room and create a unique style for your bedroom.
