Shopping and caring for linens is both an art and a science. Here are some helpful tips to make the process easier:

1. Always measure the depth (thickness) of your mattress before shopping for bedding. This helps to ensure your sheets will fit well, and that your quilt or duvet will have the proper drop on the sides of your bed.

2. When washing dark coloured linens for the first time, use cool water and skip the soap. Instead, add 1/2 cup of salt or white vinegar to the water. This helps to set the colour and prevent or minimize fading.

3. Replace your pillows about every two years, or use a moisture and dust mite proof pillow protector to extend the life of your favourite pillow.

4. Always ensure that your duvet and duvet cover are a compatible size. Purchasing a duvet and a duvet cover that are well matched (within a couple inches) in dimensions will help to prevent shifting and frustration! Or try duvet clips to help tame an unruly (undersized) duvet.
