Have you just let yourself be seduced by a pretty Bonsoirs bedding set ? Bed linen is synonymous with sleeping comfort, but also offers a nice aesthetic appearance. You still have to manage to put your sheets on correctly. Do you find putting on a duvet a headache? Well, thanks to a few Good Evening techniques, it's over! Discover our tips for putting on a bedding set with ease.
What is a bedding set?
Maybe you haven't made your choice yet? Are you wondering which pieces of bed linen are part of the Bonsoirs sets? Whether cotton percale , cotton sateen or washed linen sheets , all our sets for adults include the same parts:
- a duvet cover;
- a fitted sheet;
- a pair of pillowcases.
What changes are the dimensions of these sheets, to be chosen according to the size of your bed. Our baby and children's bedding set includes a duvet cover and a pillowcase in organic cotton.
How to put on a fitted sheet?
The first piece of your Bonsoirs set to put in your bed is the fitted sheet . This is this particular sheet with 4 cups. To position it correctly, you must choose it with the right dimensions.
Fitted sheet dimensions
To choose a fitted sheet, you must ensure that its size corresponds to that of your bed. Let's take the example of a standard size 2-person adult bed. These dimensions are 140x190 cm. You must therefore choose a fitted sheet measuring 140x190 cm. The rule is valid for all bed sizes. You can use the size guide offered by Bonsoirs to help you make your choice.
Fitted sheet cups
Some people need to be on their stomach to fall asleep. This sleeping position is, however, not recommended, because it presses on the rib cage and creates tension in the tracheal and swallowing muscles. It can also cause neck pain because with the head turned to the side, the spine is put under pressure and the vertebrae are no longer properly aligned.
Finally the pillowcases
In each Bonsoirs bedding set, you benefit from two pillowcases . To put them on easily, you must first choose a size that matches that of your pillows. Little advice Good evening: if you are looking for a soft and silky material for your hair, opt for cotton satin pillowcases.
Square pillowcases
The standard size of a square pillow is 65x65 cm. This is a common pillow size for French bedding. You must choose exactly the same dimensions for a pillowcase.
Rectangular pillowcases
The rectangular pillow, also called the American pillow, is common in the hotel industry. It is also increasingly chosen by individuals. Its standard size is 50x70 cm, dimensions which correspond to those of the pillowcases.
Tip for putting on a pillowcase
To avoid wasting many minutes putting a case on a pillow, there is a well-known tip in the hotel industry. Simply fold the pillow in the middle, lengthwise. Hold the pillow folded and place it in the case. Then unfold the pillow, then tap it so that the corners fit snugly into the corners of the cover.
How to put on a duvet cover?
Putting on a duvet cover can be a tedious exercise for many people. How much time wasted trying to recover the corners of the quilt? To shake the cover in all directions to distribute the duvet evenly inside? Bonsoirs shares with you 2 tips for putting on a duvet in a few minutes and easily winning the battle.
