When it comes to using luxury bedding, more and more people are considering it for how well it can actually make you sleep. The conditions for a good sleep need to be just about right and these days more and more people are going without sleep. Bedding is a huge part of that and silk is the one luxury linen fabric that seems to really capture the imagination and desire of people. While it’s not the easiest type of bedding to find, it will change the way you think about sleep and comfort forever.
It’s really important that you have the right expectations before you just go out there and purchase some real silk sheets.
1. Seams
The looms that make silk thread into a fabric are only 114cm wide which is not nearly wide enough for our beds these days. This means that there are panels of silk fabric that need to be sewn together to create a sheet. That means there will be seams in your sheets.
It’s not a bad thing at all as you will never feel them, but you will see them. So just knowing that they are there will keep you from being unpleasantly surprised.
2. Cleaning Your Silk
To make your silk bedding last a very long time, you have to wash them in a very gentle manner. Unlike other sheets which are protected by heavy chemicals, these aren’t you must know what to do if you’re going to wash them yourself. Silk is a real organic material and most detergents will damage the integrity of the silk so use an organic detergent. Finally, never use your machine dryer, air dry them and they will last you an incredibly long time and keep that great feeling.
If you want to take that responsibility off your hands, use a dry cleaner. Most dry cleaners are skilled with silk and will make sure it’s very safe to use. And to make sure you don’t waste too much money at the cleaners, only get them washed once a month.
3. No Pets On Your Bed
It’s not uncommon at all for pet owners to share their beds with their dogs and cats. However, you can’t do that with silk because of their claws. They can easily snag the silk as they could do with any fabric… you just don’t want them to do it with your luxury silk bedding sets.
4. You May Not Wear Pajamas Again
Most people wear their pajamas to bed, but you probably won’t want to anymore under silk bedding. You don’t get the full affect of sleeping in silk unless you are in the nude. Plus when you sleep in just your skin, the silk can do what it’s best at, keeping you one temperature all night long for a great sleep.
5. You’ll Never Go Back
If you’re like most people you are going to never want to sleep in anything else on your bed again. They do feel so amazing that you will want to sleep on silk for the rest of time for sure.
Here are the things that you have to know about because they will save you any heartache you might have.
