Spice Up Your Contemporary Bedroom For Romance!

Contemporary Bedding Deals — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 01:58:39 +0000

Want to spice up your bedroom to let some romance in?

Decorating your bedroom for romance doesn't even have to be hard or expensive. You can really let your creativity run wild here.

The most vital thing to keep in mind is that you want to soothe all of the senses to both take away other distractions and relax completely. This should be your oasis, your refuge to reconnect and delight in your partner's company.

A fantastic place to start is lighting. Get rid of the glare, and you're well on the way to more romance!

Candles, candles and more candles can bring a lot of romance into the bedroom for a pretty small investment. Candles, both large and small, tapered, pillar or votives all generate a warm, inviting, flickering light to the room. Group them together in several areas of the room for the best effect.

Adding a dimmer switch to lighting can also be quite effective in designing bedrooms for romance- and cost very small as long as you can install it yourself. It isn't as hard as you might reckon!

Placing mirrors to reflect your softened light will add more depth to your bedroom.

Window dressings that are plush and appealing should darken the room and prevent lights from traffic or other external noise from interrupting the romantic mood you are making. The window treatment can match or contrast the bedding and often can be found as an accessory to the bedding set you select. Draperies that billow and flow can add a touch of romance to the bedroom as well.

The bed, of course, is the focal point of the bedroom in most cases, and the bedding you select for romance can set just the perfect mood.

Many people reckon of silk and satin when thinking of romantic bedding. Both silk and satin can be costly and a bit slippery on the bed. The excellent news is that the same luxurious effect and feel can be made with 100% cotton sateen sheets if you don't want the added expense of genuine satin or silk linens.

Choose bedding for your romantic bedroom that centers on relaxing, romantic colors. Avoid using too much grey, yellow or pink. Red, black, white, blue and green is very well loved. Newer colors like pearl, bronze and even gold can really make the feeling of luxury and are quite romantic.

Remember that all of your senses should be involved for the perfect touch of romance- so adding fascinating texture for bedding can be another opportunity to bring out romance. Velvet, faux fur and velour are rich, soft to the touch fabrics that can be used for comforters, blankets and throw pillows
.
Peacock Alley is one of the most well-known luxury bedding maker.

They offer an especially warm, romantic bed linen set called the Marrakech Ebony. It features shades of green, gold and ebony in prints reminiscent of the African plains and looks especially romantic when highlighted by candlelight. 55% linen and 45% rayon make luxurious sheets which are simple to care for.

The Vienna Ensemble from Peacock Alley is 100% Egyptian cotton in white on white featuring eyelet lace. Euro sham, coverlet, boudoir pillows add wonderful fascinating detail to the bedding which brings back the romantic 1800s.

And if you'd prefer to keep your expenses down abit, then you could go for the shabby chic approach, which means focusing on your own sense of style, mixing just about any romantic touches into the bedroom- as long as the overall result is soothing and relaxing. You don't have to follow anyone else's thought of romance. Just be creative!

If you really want to go all out, you could add a canopy to your bed. You can easily make the same effect of a canopy bed with about 10 yards of material like linen, silk or satin and four hooks placed in the ceiling. Simply drape the cloth so that it billows and flows to just above the bed linens. This touch will enhance any spacious bedroom and can provide a bedroom with low ceilings a more spacious feel.

End your new romantic bedroom with abit of soft music, maybe some potpourri and some fine chocolates and champagne, and there you have it!

You can live in a bedroom that surrounds you with romance every night if you wish. Simply bring together your own creation of romantic touches and delight in.

Rachel Ashwell Flower Fields – Girls Canopy Bedding

Contemporary Bedding Deals — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 15:16:23 +0000

A canopy bed may sound exotic and out of reach for your little girl, but it really isn’t. The easiest way to make a simple canopy for your daughter’s bed is to drape a piece of fabric over the top frame rails of a structured canopy bed. There are other ways to get the look of a canopy and to envelop the bed in softness and color if it doesn’t have a canopy frame.

Made of 100% cotton, Rachel Ashwell’s Flower Fields Girls’ Bedding Ensemble by Kilmor is a lovely field of floating flowers on a vivid yellow background. The crisp white floral sheets and matching pink plaid make this ensemble a cheery option for a girl’s bedroom or guest room. It is offered as a complete E-Z bedroom set including a sheet set, comforter, ruffled shams, bed skirt and two accent pillows.

In contrast, Amanda Bedding offers soft pinks, greens and turquoise. California Kids Bug Off camelback canopy has gathered drop, blue bug with orange plaid ruffle, and is available in twin, full or queen. ZZ Kids Blooms and Butterflies quilt has beautiful bright butterflies along with fanciful flowers. This quilt is sure to bring out happy dreams for every little girl with its pink and white polka dots, bright green and pink checks, and purple prairie point border.

Before making a bedding purchase, keep these guidelines in mind:

Linen and silk are trendy and very comfortable, but the most popular and traditional fabric for sheets is cotton

Thread count is important because it refers to how many threads there are per square inch of fabric

Egyptian cotton is considered to be the best because it has the longest fiber and it’s the strongest

Machine wash fine linen but use very low temperatures, mild detergents without brighteners or bleaches, and dry them on low heat being sure to remove them before they’re completely dry to avoid wrinkles

Keep the thickness of your mattress in mind when shopping to ensure the right fit

Now that you can buy anything from jersey to linen, at thread counts ranging from 150 to more than 1000, sheets are the area in which bedding gets very confusing. Sateen weave means one vertical thread is woven over four or more horizontal threads, and then under one horizontal thread. Other weaves include jersey, a stretchy knit fabric, and flannel, in which the surface is brushed, creating a warmer feel.
