How to choose your perfect duvet size
Picking the right duvet size is more than matching it to your bed, it’s about your personal comfort too. Whether you sleep solo or with a partner, there’s a duvet size for everyone. Have you heard about the Scandinavian style of using individual duvets for each person? It might just be the cosy solution you’re looking for.
- Match duvet size to bed and body: Consider both the size of your bed and your own body size. A larger duvet can offer more coverage and comfort, especially if you’re tall or prefer extra space.
- Individual vs shared duvets: If you share a bed, think about whether you’d prefer a single large duvet or the Scandinavian approach of two separate duvets. This can cater to different warmth and space preferences.
- Factor in sleep habits: Your duvet size should accommodate how you sleep. If you tend to move a lot, a larger size might be better to prevent drafts. For those who stay still, a snugger fit might be ideal.
Caring for your duvet
A well-cared-for duvet is a key to cosy nights and quality sleep. Follow these simple steps to ensure your duvet stays clean, comfortable, and long-lasting.
- Go for detergents without harsh chemicals or bleach. This protects the duvet’s fibres and filling, ensuring it stays soft and comfortable.
- Shaking out your duvet regularly helps redistribute the filling and prevent clumps, maintaining an even and comfortable thickness throughout.
- Do you forget to make the bed sometimes? It’s actually a good thing! By airing out your bed linen, you help eliminate dust mites and other allergens, promoting a healthier sleeping environment.
