Lights! Camera! Bed Linen!

All Hollywood flicks will have few scenes on the bed… intimate, touching or thoughtful scenes. One thing common in all these scenes is the beautiful comfy bed linen and pillows. You always wonder who makes these lovely beds for these folks. Since our Desi film makers can’t really conceive or show “decent” intimate scenes in Bed they end up using the bed room shots for some drama….

The sick, dyeing man delivering his last words in long sentences. The bad guy smothering a rich fat old guy to death with a pillow! Oh yes our heroine will be insulted on the ground floor for her to run up the stairs holding her tears and will burst out crying as she dives on to her Bed . Few daring directors have covered the leading pair in a silky satin black sheets accompanied by gust of air blowing across .The hope is few desperate dudes might buy tickets for the next show to try their luck (just in case the sheets get blown off!) Our hero always a good dad lets the kid jump on the bed does a pillow fight and then reads them a book (No IPL!!). If there is a cute young thing in the movie her bed room will have a nice big window with a drain pipe attached for her Romeo to sneak up. Oh yes if she got to elope she ties up all the bed sheets to rappel down. If it’s our hero’s bed room his mom comes in with his “Kapi”if its south Indian flick and opens the curtains to let in sunlight( …Don’t attempt this at home if you have sons!!) . Don’t forget the nightie clad lady in Bed always gets bitten in the neck by that Vampire who really needs to see a Dentist

Bed Covers vs. Bed Spreads Vs. Coverlets: What’s The Difference?

- Shreya Shyamsunder March 2017

With increasing consumerism, there is an increase in the number of products offered to the consumers. With the increase in products comes the need to differentiate between the products and from this endless cycle comes confusion. In order to make their products seem unique producers and marketers will often try to make their products seem unique or special by selling them under a ‘special’ or different category. And therefore a lot of home décor and bedroom accessory shoppers are often confused and perplexed when they come across the terms bed covers and bed spreads. They often wonder what the difference between a bedspread and a bed cover is and will then ask themselves questions like, which one should I buy, what will serve me better, is the quality different? The truth is that these two are one in the same. Bedspreads and bed covers are an umbrella term used to signify basically all pre-filled bed covers intended for use as the top layer on a bed. Coverlets, quilts, duvets and comforters fall into this category. So when you go to one store and you see a comforter being listed under bedspreads and then go to another store and then see the same kind of comforter as being listed under bed covers don’t worry cause they are the same thing. So now that we are done with differentiating between bedspreads and bed covers, let’s talk about coverlets. Most of us know what quilts, duvets and comforters are because we may have used them at some point. The basic differentiating factor between them is the thickness and materials used. So coverlets are a lightweight, non-reversible bedspread/ bedcover that is normally either stitched or woven. Traditionally composed as an ornamental layer to go over thicker quilts, coverlets regularly have a thin layer of bedding, making them fit for use as a solitary bed covering or a simple accessory to make your bed look beautiful. Coverlets are most commonly used in hotels and resorts as an additional cover to add to the comfort as well as aesthetic appeal of the bedroom. So now that you know the difference, you can pick up bedspreads to suit your bedroom nee

Bed Sheets: Fitted or Flat?

- Shreya Shyamsunder March 2017

Bed sheets… an extremely prominent yet often overlooked necessity in our bed rooms. More often than not most people spend little to no time on selecting sheets. But we are not most people. Who is this ‘we’ you ask? Why I’m talking about those people who consider their bedrooms to be their sanctuaries, their fortresses of solitude, their holy haven. To these people the bedroom isn’t just a place to go to sleep at night, instead to them it’s a physical representation of who they are as people as well as the place where they find comfort in at the end of a hard day. Therefore it is ‘we’ who spend time, patience and valuable money on choosing only the best for our bed, and therefore our bodies. And so we come to the point of this blog. For those of us who care about what goes on our bed, do we prefer fitted sheets or flat sheets? For those of you who are wondering what fitted or flat sheets are, here’s Wikipedia’s answer to it: “A flat sheet is simply a rectangular sheet of cloth, while a fitted sheet has its four corners, and sometimes two or four sides, fitted with elastic, to be used only as a bottom sheet. The fitted sheet may also be secured using a drawstring instead of elastic.” But to bed aficionado’s it’s more than that. When selecting between a fitted or flat sheet there are a number of things to take into consideration. Fitted sheets as the name suggests are bed sheets that are fitted and completely cover and envelope your bed and are held in place by an elastic band. Therefore the advantage of using fitted sheets is that it perfectly cover your bed and so you never have to worry about the headache of waking up in the morning to find your sheet just strewn across your bed as if it was simply ripped out from under you. Fitted sheets also act as a cover for your mattress and help keep it clean. Flat sheets on the other hand are what most common consumers tend to buy and use. It is essentially just a flat sheet that is primarily used as a top layer. Flat sheets are often perceived as being more comfortable or cozy as compared to fitted sheets. Therefore each type has its own characteristics that make it special. But the truth is that these sheets were created to complement each other, to be used together, not to be sold separately or compared. They are like yin and yang, like you and your significant other, they were meant to be together. So why choose one over the other when you can have both? The perfect unison for the ultimate bedroom comfort and hygiene.
