While somewhat expensive and requiring special care, linen sheets can be an investment lasting as long as 20 years. Choose a comforter and pillow shams to coordinate with your sheets. You may want to consider selecting a comforter that matches more than one set of sheets. Many comforters available today are reversible, offering you several decorating options to suit your mood. Personal preference will also determine your choice of blankets.
Wool blankets are best for cold weather while thermal weaves are comfortable in warmer weather.
For the bath, all-cotton towels are unquestionably the softest and most absorbent. Choose between looped terry towels that are thick and thirsty or sheared terry towels that are velvety to the touch. Select colors that carry out the scheme you've set for the bedroom. With a little planning and creativity, you can make choices today that will bring comfort and pleasure for years to come. Select two additional sets of sheets for each guest bedroom.
