There are many types of beds which work best for certain people, and for specific purposes. Some are used for regular sleep, some for sleep while traveling, and some as guest beds. If you’re interested in getting better sleep, look into getting your dream bed which would enhance your comfort and ability to sleep, and allow the bed to be the star of the bedroom. So here are some components to a bed that can enhance your sleep, and the aesthetics of your bed, depending on your preference.
Mattress
In spite of the mattress itself remaining invisible beneath all the covers, this is the crux of your dream bed. There are many mattresses to choose from, but you want to find the right kind of luxury mattress to regulate your body temperature and give you the rested sleep you need.
And if you enjoy the comfort of your current mattress, you can add a quilted mattress protector to prolong the life and cleanliness of your mattress while maintaining the integrity of your mattress comfort.
Duvet Cover Sheets
It is best to find the right duvet cover sheets that are going to help to regulate your temperature best. This will make for a more comfortable night’s sleep, all year long. The higher the thread count of the duvet cover sheets, the finer and softer it will be.
You can also find custom-made sheets from Tochta which offer 100% cotton sheets for all sizes of mattresses. The style or pattern of your duvet cover will help to give your bed a look of luxury and style, and also give you a regulated temperature for the best nights’ sleep.
Bed Skirt
A bed skirt, or valance sheet as it is sometimes known, is used for aesthetic purposes. If you have storage under the bed, for example, the bed skirt will hide it away while allowing it to be readily accessible. Or you can simply use a bed skirt to hide the bed frame, and add to the aesthetic of your bed.
Bed skirts can come with pleats, a gathered look for a soft wave which allows you to access items under your bed. When choosing a bed skirt it is important to double check the measurements against your bed. For the best look, you don’t want it to trail on the floor, or equally, you don’t want it to be too short and reveal all of your boxed storage under the bed.
Pillows
All beds need pillows whether you use them to cushion your head, as body pillows, to prop you up while sitting in bed, or simply for added decoration. The pillow that you use for sleeping is going to be a different quality from the decorative pillows, which means it can take some shopping around to find ones that will best suit you.
Head Pillow
Some people may need hypoallergenic pillows, and some people prefer feather-filled, rather than foam. Overall, having a quality pillow that cradles your head so you don’t wake up with a headache, or feel stiff in the morning, is going to be half the key to getting a good night’s sleep—partnered with a quality mattress.
European Pillow
A European pillow is usually square in size, and can be used as a decorative pillow, as well as a functional pillow. It’s helpful for reading in bed, and it can work as a substitute headboard if your bed doesn’t have one. They can also be used to hide away crumpled sleeping pillows which for aesthetic reasons, can be helpful.
Throw Pillows
Throw or decorative cushions are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, and are a good way to add some pops of color, patterns, or style to your bed. You can add as many as you like, but aesthetically an odd number works best so that you can create a pyramid-style display with the cushions.
Bed Frame
This adds a dimension of class to your bed. With many choices between a beautifully carved wood panel, a canopy bed, a simple metal frame, or even a loft bed for added space beneath your sleeping quarters, you decide what you want: to highlight the bed and either use the bed frame as an accent, or hide it as a simple functionality.
Creating your dream bed is all about getting it looking just as you want it to, and having the bed being as comfortable and luxurious as you’d like. At the end of the day, the comfort of the bed is going to be one of the most important things, as that is what will help you to get the best night’s sleep, so bear that in mind as you choose your mattress, bed frame, duvet, pillows, and linen.
