Kylie Minogue Is Back

Kylie Minogue is back with the launch of her brand new autumn/winter collection. This collection is filled with opulent and shimmering designs giving off that magical feel and sparkle in the bedroom.

Kylie Minogue’s designer bedding collection is one of the most luxurious bed linens you can purchase. They are made in 200 thread count cotton sateen and a soft satin, definitely what we’d call luxury.

Designer bedding is a must have to make any bedroom shine and give off that ‘wow’ factor. It may be slightly more expensive but you get a complete bedding experience with duvet covers and pillow cases to bed throws and a variety of cushions.

The advantage of this type of bedding is that it gives off so much elegance and glamour; giving you the dream bedroom which you have dreamed of. The disadvantage of this type of bed linen is that it is so ostentatious and lush you can’t say no.

With all of the Kylie Minogue bedding there is guaranteed to be some beautiful embellishment; whether it be a diamante brooch, shimmering pearls or glittering sequins, you name it, there’s so much sparkle and glamour in the bed linen.

One of the new designs for autumn/winter 2013 is the Sika. This design was inspired by Kylie’s love of animal prints in a sensuous palette of soft caramels and chocolate. Layered with the Zorina faux fur throw and matching cushion in chocolate, with the 2 other coordinating cushions; this creates a truly opulent bedroom. Made from luxurious 200 thread count cotton sateen, this highly sophisticated design will create the ultimate setting for luxurious living.

As well as the Sika bedding design, there are 4 more brand new designs from Kylie which are all different with their own unique embellishments and patterns meaning there is something to suit everyone’s taste.

All of the designs come in 4 standard sizes; single, double, king and superking and can also be purchased as a full bedding set on our website. With our full bedding set option we give you 10% off AND a fitted sheet for free in your choice of colour from our wide selection to match your new bedding. Definitely a bedding experience not to miss out on!

Our full bedding set includes:

1 x duvet cover
2 x housewife or oxford pillow cases (will be stated online)
2 x square pillow cases
3 x cushions (the particular coordinating cushions will be stated on the product page)

To see the new glamorous designs by Kylie Minogue, visit our website now to kick start the designing for your new styled bedroom. Be sure to keep checking back within the next few days as we’ll be adding the additional 2 designs.

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?

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.
