Bed ValanceA bed valance or bed skirt can sometimes be the last item on the average persons shopping list when it comes to dressing the bed, which is a shame because it can be the perfect finish when giving any bedroom a new look makeover. For those who are wondering what I’m talking about the valance goes underneath the mattress, it sits on the base of the bed and covers it to match or contrast with the rest of your bedroom.
Standard size valances are usually available for single, double, king and superking sizes, however your average supermarket bought valance is only made to a specific drop and probably in one style, frilled. Companies like Victoria Linen offer valances in a number of colours and designs such as single pleat and box pleat valances. They also offer to make the valance at whatever size you require and at whatever depth is needed.
They also offer a velcro attached valance that can be fitted around the bed without having to take off the mattress, a perfect valance for those who would struggle to get the mattress off the bed or for electric operated beds where a normal valance would intefere with the workings of the adjustable bed. For whatever bed it would seem that you are able get the perfect fitted valance to complete the look you require.

One of the problems when it comes to waterproof mattress protectors is they are also air tight, meaning that nothing gets through. While this is great for protecting your mattress from spills and keeping bed bugs and dust mites at bay it also means that once you climb in to the bed for a well earned rest air can also get caught in the bed, once this air is trapped under your duvet or bed sheets it can’t move it then becomes warm from your own body heat, this in turn can make you warm and make for an uncomfortable nights sleep. This problem can be accentuated for those who are bed ridden or have to spend long periods of time in bed, the trapped air and heat can also lead to an increase in heat and bed sores.
Victoria Linen have recently launched a mattress protector that is the perfect remedy to this situation, using TENCEL fabric they now offer a mattress protector that is waterproof, anti allergenic and breathable. TENCEL is a unique fabric, derived from wood pulp it is a 100% natural product that allows air to pass through but is anti allergenic and 100% waterproof!

Although advances in bed linen aren’t seen as the biggest leaps in human evolution, when it comes to home life every little helps! Valances when placed on the bed can be troublesome. Your whole mattress has to be taken off the bed for the base valance to go on, this usually means the fitted sheet (and mattress protector if you have one) will come off as well. Once you’ve got valance is in place. Your mattress and bedding has to go back on. Easy fit bed valance
Sounds like a strain? That’s because it usually is! Especially with larger mattresses, it can be even more of a problem for the elderly and those less able. Our new velcro bed valance (also known as an easy fit valance) is a very useful alternative that takes away all the hassle of lugging your mattress around the bedroom.
