Choosing The Right Bedding For Your Needs

When it comes to choosing the right bedding for yourself, you might feel overwhelmed by the choices available and the amount of information online that points you in different directions. Before you start a frantic search for the right bedding, consider the following few things first. there are a few things to consider. First, consider the size and thickness of your mattress and choose bedsheets that fit. You should also take into account your sleeping position and personal preferences to determine pillow firmness and type of quilt. Finally, imagine the look and feel you want to achieve in your bedroom and choose beddings that complement your decor. All these will set you in the direction towards your goal.

Bed Sets

Bed sets are a popular choice at Epitex since it comes complete with a fitted sheet, pillowcases, bolster cases and a quilt cover. This is great for those who prefer harmonising their quilt design with their bedsheets to create a complete look for their bedroom. The whole set would share the same material, which can be important to some. For example, Tencel and Bamboo is a popular choice in Singapore’s hot and humid weather due to its cooling hand feel and great temperature-regulating properties.

Pick the colour and pattern of your bed set based on your bedroom interiors. Neutral colors such as white, beige, and gray are classic and timeless, highly adaptable to most interiors, while bold colors like red, blue, or green can add a visual pop to your room. If you have a patterned wallpaper or colourful rug, it would be best to go for solid colours to avoid overwhelming the room.

With your bed as the centerpiece of your bedroom, find a bed set that resonates well with your personality. For a traditional look, consider classic patterns such as stripes. For a modern look, geometric patterns or solid colors can be considered. For a nature lover, choose floral or botanical prints. Some bed sets contain cartoon characters too that are great at reflecting your hobbies or interests, or are perfect for children.

Remember that there is no hard and fast rule on choosing a bed set. You can mix and match patterns, colors, and textures to create a unique sleeping experience for yourself.

Quilts And Quilt Covers

Quilts might be the last bedding you had consider given the warm weather in Singapore. However a light summer quilt will still be useful on chilly nights especially for those who are more sensitive to colder temperatures. Our bodies lose heat slightly as well as we fall into deep sleep and a summer quilt helps regulate our body temperatures before we wake up feeling cold. Summer quilts are lightweight and highly breathable and can often be used with quilt covers found in bed sets. These covers are removable and washable, which protects your quilt

There are quilts with a cotton shell cover and those with other cooling materials such as Tencel. If you are prone to catching a cold, opt for cotton quilts which are more cozy and snug. For warm sleepers, cooling materials like Tencel will better regulate your body surface temperature by dissipating heat more effectively.

Pillows

Pillows are an important part of your bedding and greatly influence your sleep quality. There are many types of pillows available, from plush to firm ones, contour and memory foam ones. Take into account your sleeping position. For example, if you sleep on your back, a soft low pillow may be best, while if you sleep on your side, a firmer pillow may provide more support. Plush pillows can offer the sink-in effect which may feel snugger and cosier to some. Firm pillows on the other hand offers more support for your neck and shoulders and are mostly much higher by nature. Contour pillows work best if the contour fits the natural curve of your neck and shoulder. If it does not fit well, contour pillows might result in unnatural resting positions that may cause pains and aches.

Mattress Toppers

Mattress toppers are a great addition to your mattress by sitting on top as a layer of cushioning, giving you extra comfort and support. Mattress toppers come in a variety of materials and thickness and can be used as a means of adding plush comfort to a firm mattress. Thickness typically range from 1 to 4 inches. A thick topper will offer cushioning and support, but may trap more body heat. A thinner topper however, will be cooler to sleep on.
