Know Your Bedding Material ~ Polyester
Polyester:
Polyester is a man-made and natural fibre produced from polymers. Polyester is a strong fibre that keeps its shape and resists wrinkling. Sheets made from this material are often found in homes and hotels where durability, not necessarily comfort, is a major concern.

Know Your Bedding Material ~ Silk
Silk:
Silk is
luxurious, soft fibre produced from silk worms. The three main varieties are the Wild Silk {harvested from wild silk worms}, the Tussah Silk from the east {with a deep tone to it} and the 100% Mulberry Silk {which is the "Rolls Royce" of silks}. They create a silky, cool
alternative for warm days and romantic nights. Because it is naturally hypo-allergenic,
it is an alternative for people who suffer from allergies.

Know Your Bedding Material ~ Cotton
When
shopping for bed sheets, there's a lot to consider. Colour, size and style are
all important factors you’ll definitely have to think about when looking for
that “purr”fect sheet but the most important of all, is the fabric! The fabric
of your sheets will determine how rested you wake next day. Yep, that
important!
Everyone has
their favourites amongst these sheets fabrics. This post, and the ones that would follow, will shed some light
on their varying characteristics and how they works for you.
Cotton:
Made from
the pod of a cotton plant, Cotton is the all-natural fibre most favoured and
most used for bed sheets since it is most durable, most breathable and
the softest. A prime example is the Egyptian cotton, the most luxurious of cottons,
often used in high quality and very expensive bed sheets. |

When
Pantone announced Emerald as the Color of the year 2013, a lot of folks were
excited. I actually rolled my eyes. Green has never been a personal favourite,
not after we moved into that house with the nastiest shade of green in the
living room. Nasty memory aside tho, the truth is that there’s a lot to love
about the colour green. Not only is it a happy colour, a natural part of
earth’s colour scheme, emerald green is one the few colours everyone looks
great in, regardless of skin tone! What’s not to love about it?
While i
still prefer my emeralds as rocks, here are few ideas on how to incorporate it
into your overall home decor:1. Throw Pillows: Solids, patterned, bejewelled. Throw pillows offer the best ways to accentuate a space.
