It’s also important to consider the bedsheet manufacturer when choosing a bed sheet.  Look for reputable brands known for producing high-quality, durable bed sheets.

A bed skirt’s “drop” refers to the length of the skirt from the top of the box spring to the floor, stopping about ¼” from the floor.

8 Types of Bed Sheets For Every Sleeping Type

A bed-sheet is a square piece of fabric that is consists of an elastic band lining that fits directly over the mattress. Another type of bed-sheet includes stitched ends without a stretchy band. You can use both the fitted bed sheet and the straight and stitched type at the same time during hot nights.

 On the other hand, if you have a full-size bed, you will want to look for full-size bed sheets.  These bed sheets are specifically designed to fit slightly smaller full-size mattresses, ensuring a smooth and tailored look.  Just like king-size bed sheets, a sheet set for a full-size bed should include a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and pillowcases to complete the look and provide maximum comfort.

Silk is a natural fiber produced by silkworms and because it needs such delicate care in the production process, it tends to be a pricier option. Aside from the price, silk sheets are naturally hypoallergenic, but care and maintenance tend to be laborious. 

And finally, brushed cotton is for those looking for something in the middle in terms of cooling/heat-retaining qualities. To turn cotton into brushed cotton, the fabric undergoes a couple of extra treatments that result in the softest flannel-like bedlinen. While both percale and sateen sheets may take a few washes to become more supple and soft, a new set of brushed cotton bedding feels like you’ve slept in it forever. It is a great year-round option because it won’t warm or cool you down excessively.

Fiber Towels

'Cotton percale offers that light, crisp feel from the start and sateen provides that silky heavyweight feel that will mold to your body.'

 Medium-size towels, on the other hand, strike a balance between compactness and functionality.  Medium-size towels are versatile and can be used for many purposes, such as drying off after a quick shower or using them in the gym or pool.  Medium-size towels are convenient for everyday use, easy to store, and don't take up much space.

Different materials will require different methods of washing and drying. Some are more involved than others, so it’s worth looking into the required care instructions for bedding before purchasing. For example, silk sheets may require special detergent and often must be hand washed or line dried. The same can be true for other delicate materials.
