White bed linen
Approximately one third of each person's life is spent in a state of sleep. And it's not a secret for anyone that such a vacation should take place in the most comfortable conditions. It is not only about the softness of the bed, but also about the bedding. Modern housewives prefer colorful sets, but such models are not able to create a full-fledged atmosphere for relaxation. But the snow-white bedding, on the contrary, provides calmness, bliss, relaxation and sound sleep.
Advantages and disadvantages
Someone thinks that white bedding is a sign of luxury and wealth, which is why it cannot fit into the interior of simple bedrooms. This judgment is erroneous, and the assumption that only the elite sleeps on snow-white sheets is incorrect. There are snow-white sets in every home, just their number is limited, since the cost of one such sleeping set is not always affordable for the average person or family. And the set that lies in the closet is often left in reserve, since the subtleties of proper care for snow-white sheets are known to few housewives.
In fact, taking care of your snow-white sleep sets is easy if you follow the manufacturer's recommendations on the sheet, pillowcase or duvet cover label. Proper washing and ironing will keep your bed linen intact. It will not be covered with pellets, will not lose its softness, and most importantly, it will keep crystal clear.
Ease of care is the undeniable advantage of the snow-white kits. But the positive qualities of white bedding are much more.
- When sewing white sleeping sets, manufacturers use only natural fabrics. It can be cotton, linen or tensel. A distinctive feature of these materials lies in the immediate absorption of moisture, ensuring constant air circulation and, of course, maintaining the optimal temperature.
- White is in harmony with different colored elements of the bedroom decor, for example, with a colorful blanket over a blanket or with milky pillowcases.
- White linens are ideal for any bedroom interiors. It favors the psychological perception of the room, even if an abundance of flashy colors is used in the interior.
- Another important advantage is that the white color creates an atmosphere of cleanliness and freshness.
- White bedding sets can be used not only in the adult bedroom, but also in the children's room.
A wide range of pluses of snow-white bedding is diluted with just one minus, namely, soiling. However, if you use the kit for its intended purpose, that is, to spread and make the bed immediately before going to bed and immediately after waking up, the problem of dirt on white sheets will be solved.
Design
Classic white linens have always been and are in demand. It is this type of sleeping set that allows a person to relax after a hard day's work and "fall" into a deep sleep. Everyone knows that monochromatic textile products have a beneficial effect on a person's condition, they, like a sedative, are able to restore a shattered nervous system.
Well, do not forget that the white bed emphasizes the sophistication, lightness, freshness and cleanliness of the bedroom.
But modern fashion isn't just considering plain white bedding sets. Current trends involve using contrasting shades such as red, purple and even black. The combination of milky bedding, coupled with blue, brown or golden filling, looks no less impressive.
Designer kits are very popular. But they are often purchased by well-to-do families, since their cost is quite high, and, accordingly, is unacceptable to average citizens. The price of such kits is explained by the fact that each design kit is made in a single copy. Well, as a decorative filling of such sets, lace inserts are used, for example, framing pillowcases. Hand embroidery with an unusual pattern or curled pattern looks no less impressive instead of lace. By the way, today 3D prints that create vivid pictures are in vogue.
Landscapes, images of flowers, for example, red roses and animals, look just as elegant and beautiful on white bedding. Geometric shapes contrasting with white colors will look very unusual.
This pure white bedroom set is ideal for a classic-style room. At the same time, no color images should be present on the textiles. The only additional decor allowed for a classic set is light lace.
How to choose?

If the fabric is transparent, it means that it is of low quality and the kit will not last long.
