Add That Extra Special Touch To Your Bedroom!

A bedroom is a place which needs to be looked after and dressed beautifully for someone to be sleeping in there 7 nights a week, spending at least 30% of their time living in that single room.

If your bedroom was a bit of..lets say ‘a dump’, it looks like a bombs gone off; clothes everywhere, rubbish dotted around, last nights leftovers on the bed side table, would you like spending time in there surrounded by all of that? A bedroom is a place which needs looking after in order to keep you happy and let you wake up without any worries.

If the environment you sleep and stay in looks nice and is clean, it makes you generally feel happier. But every now and again you stop and look at your bedroom decor and question yourself. What is missing? There’s something needed to complete that look you want to give off. And you tell yourself that ‘wow’ factor just isn’t there.

If you agree with me then I have the answer you have been waiting for… A bedspread. It will answer all of your prayers. There are numerous ways in which you could dress a bed with a bedspread/throw as they come in different styles, shapes and sizes.

There are a variety of bedspreads which are available, all known as something different with different terminology; these are explained below.

Bedspread – a standard bedspread is typically designed to cover the whole bed from top to bottom and side to side. It is commonly placed on top of the duvet covers to add extra thickness and warmth. They can be made to fit a bed perfectly (known as a fitted bedspread) or they can be made so they just hang over the edges of the bed for you to style it with your bed how you wish too (flat bedspread).

Eiderdown – An eiderdown generally sits on top of the bed in more of a squared shape with no overhang on the edges.

Bed ThrowBed throws tend to be used best across the bottom of the bed to decorate it more, they don’t cover the bed like a bedspread would do.

Bedspreads tend to add a special touch to the bedroom. There are many varieties out there in different fabrics, colours and styles. Some come embellished with diamantes and embroidery, others come with frilled edging and rouched rolled edging, and others with ruffles and pleats.

All styles of bedspread can be made to any specific size required and are designed to your taste at Victoria Linen Company. They stock a wide range of fabrics in their showroom giving enough choice for customers to choose from but easily searching for what they want.

No matter what style or design of bedspread you choose, it will simply add glamour and luxury to your bedroom instantly.

Get Warm and Toasty This Season With Flannelette Bedding

Do you find it difficult to sleep at night sometimes due to being cold, especially in the winter time and the colder months? Your problem can easily be resolved by purchasing some lovely soft flannelette bedding; a fabric which is designed to keep you snug and warm in your bed at night.

100% Brushed Cotton Flannelette
100% Brushed Cotton Flannelette

Flannelette, which is also known as flannel, is an ultra soft, loosely woven material which is produced with a twill weave featuring a napped surface. There are several types of flannel, all of which differ in the weave and degree of napping. Flannelette can either have a long or short nap and can be napped on one or two sides.

It is known to have originated from Wales back in the 16th Century when it was used to make warm clothes to combat the winter cold and was traditionally made from carded wool, although modern flannel can be derived from cottons, wool or a synthetic blend. Flannel was originally most popular in clothing whereas nowadays it is more known to be used for bed linen and pyjamas being the popular clothing type; making sure everyone is toasty warm in their bed.

Our flannelette bedding here at Victoria Linen is made at a 200 thread count with 100% brushed cotton; the fabric is fuzzy and thicker than any regular fabric such as standard cotton. The flannelette is designed to keep people warm and is extra soft; therefore it is perfect for cold sleepers, winter time or even a holiday home/caravan where it can be chilly in the evening. It is a fabric which is easy to take care of and is very durable; the more the bedding gets washed the softer the fabric gets.

We offer a wide range of products within our flannelette range including fitted and flat sheets, pillowcases, fitted sheets for Moses baskets, bedding for cots and much more.

To see our extent range of flannelette bedding visit our website now and get ordering yourself some warm, cosy bed linen for those chilly nights!

Bed Linen: The Flat Sheet

The Flat Sheet
Custom Flat Sheets

Remember Goldilocks and her adventures with the Three Bears? She broke into the bears’ home, ate their dinner, rested in their chairs, and finally fell asleep in the bed of the Baby Bear. Wonder if it had anything to do with the sheets? I’d be willing to bet she was sleeping in a custom made bed with a fitted sheet that stayed on the mattress and a flat sheet that was the proper size.
Flat sheets, also known as “top sheets” are exactly that–a sheet that lays on top of the fitted sheet covering the bed mattress and you sleep between the two. Of the two types of bed sheets available, the flat sheet is the more versatile as it can be used as a bottom sheet in addition to its normal purpose as a top sheet. Like fitted sheets, they are available in single, double, king, or super king sizes. A super king size flat sheet fits a 6′ 6″ bed quite nicely.
Beds in sizes other than those mentioned above are classified as “outsized.” They are usually custom made and can be either larger than a super king bed or much smaller than a single bed. You might be able to use standard flat sheets on some custom beds, but this, too, can present problems. If the sheet is too small, you won’t be able to tuck it in properly, meaning you will most likely find yourself sleeping on a bare mattress! If the sheet is too big, that could also create uncomfortable sleeping conditions in addition to making for a very sloppy bed! Neither is an acceptable option.
Fortunately, you can have custom sheets made for any size bed. They will look great, fit beautifully, and be more apt to stay in place. Custom bed sheets can be made in a number of fabrics, from flannel to silk, and are available in a wide array of colours.
Before placing an order for custom made bed sheets, it is of the utmost importance to accurately measure the mattress length, width, and height. You will want to make sure that there will be enough fabric to tuck under the mattress to keep the sheet in place.
When making the bed, start with placing the fitted sheet on the mattress, smoothing it out as much as possible. Then, the top for flat sheet is added. The wide hem of the sheet is placed at the head of the bed. If there is a design on only one side of the hem, place the sheet so the design is facing down toward the mattress. Spread the flat sheet over the bed, keeping the length of sheet hanging over the sides as even as possible. Tuck the bottom edge under the mattress and make hospital corners.
Place a blanket over the sheet. The top of the blanket should be placed approximately 8″ from the top of the sheet. Tuck the bottom edge of the blanket under the mattress and make hospital corners for it. Now, fold the top edge of the flat sheet over the top edge of the blanket. The finished side of the flat sheet is now showing. Place the duvet over all, add pillows, and you’re done!
Please remember that when you order custom made sheets, they are created one at a time to your specifications, so be sure to allow extra time for your order to be processed. It will be well worth the wait when you sleep in your perfectly made bed with sheets that fit. Like Goldilocks, you’ll know that your bed is “just right.”

Where Can You Find Custom Made Fitted Sheets?

If you have a standard size bed, your bed sheets should be easy to find. But what if your bed is a little different?

Custom Fitted Sheets
Custom Fitted Sheets can fit any size

The Basics of Bed Sheets

In its most basic form, bed sheets are rectangular pieces of cloth that are used to cover your mattress. In many places around the world, two sheets are used. The sheet that covers the mattress is referred to as a “bottom sheet.” A second sheet, laid on top of the mattress cover, is called a “top sheet” where you can then sleep comfortably in between the two sheets.

Sheets are typically available in two varieties–flat or fitted. The flat sheet is simply a rectangular piece of cloth, hemmed around the edges to stop fraying. You can use it either as a bottom sheet on the mattress with the excess folded in. Or as a top sheet to wrap around you and get snug once you’re in bed. If you go for a fitted sheet it has a singular purpose, that is it is made purely to go on the mattress. Our sheets are cut and made with four corners to help attach to the mattress, we then add elastic all around the hem to help it grip the mattress and stop it moving on the mattress.

Fitted sheets are commonly available in sizes to fit standard mattresses. These being:

  • Single
  • Double
  • Queen
  • King

walk into any superstore or high street bedding shop and these are the sizes you will find.  Although occaisionally you may come across Super King or California King size beds, if your lucky.

Bespoke Size Sheets

So if you have a bespoke or non standard bed, or you have an adjustable bed, what do you do? You’ll find it difficult to buy ready-made bed sheets for these types of beds because the sizes vary so widely. Luckily, with the rapid expansion of the internet and online shopping it is possible to find small businesses (like us :D) who can make bed sheets to any size. These Flat & Fitted sheets can be specially made to fit large or extra long beds, extra deep mattresses, or adjustable beds.
A Custom size bed sheet will be cut from the roll to whatever size you need. We make them in a variety of fabrics:

  • Poly Cotton (200 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (200 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (400 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (1000 Thread Count)

You can have any of the above in a wide range of colours. As mentioned before, our fitted sheets have the added bonus of elastic all the way around, which is especially helpful with adjustable beds. That means the sheet will not only fit properly, but will actually stay on the bed when it moves. We also add French seams resulting in a long lasting, high quality sheet.

Make sure you get your bed size right

It is important you don’t guess or estimate the size when ordering a bespoke size sheet, you might end up with an ill fitting sheet that will end up wrapping round you in the night. To ensure you receive a sheet that fits perfectly you MUST measure the mattress. Simply measure the mattress length from top to bottom; then the width from left to right across the widest part of the bed, and finally, the mattress depth. Record each measurement. It might make measuring easier if you have someone help to hold the tape measure. Also, when measuring be sure to keep the tape measure as flat as possible so you can be as accurate as possible.

Remember, when ordering custom made sheets, that it does take time for us to make them to your specifications.
In the end, though, the short wait will be worth it. You’ll be sleeping on a perfectly made sheet that stays in place while you sleep.
