Bedding Trends | Linen Aesthetics

When choosing suitable bedding, cotton is one of the most popular and affordable options.

However, for cotton sheets, you get what you pay for. Those cheaper sheets may become stiff, itchy, and can only be used for 

one or two years before feeling worn or uncomfortable.

Although linen fibers require a significant amount of time to continuously remove impurities in the early stages in order to complete 

the soft fine yarn used for weaving linen fabric, this fabric is durable and only improves over time.

The reason why linen bedding has become a popular trend may be due to its relaxed and exquisite beauty; Due to its natural fibers, 

linen is known for its easy way of decorating spaces.

Yes, it has creases, but they are all part of aesthetics - seamlessly integrated into any space.

What are the benefits of sleeping in linen bedding?

Flax maintains its shape due to its natural elasticity, and its durability is twice that of wool and cotton. However, unlike similar products, 

it actually becomes softer and more comfortable as it is used and washed.

In addition to appearance and touch, linen also has temperature regulation, anti-static, antibacterial properties, and is a natural insulator. 

This means that it has the characteristic of regulating temperature, which can keep you warm in winter and cool in summer without 

causing your body to overheat.

Linen is a cross seasonal bedding solution that dries quickly, so its moisture absorption and sweat wicking properties can effectively 

prevent sweating during warm months. Flax can hold up to 20 times its weight of moisture, making it an ideal material for uninterrupted 

and clean sleep.

How to care for linen?

If properly cared for, linen can be used for a lifetime.

Starting from cleaning, it is best to use soft water and avoid using hard water or water with high lime content. If this situation cannot be 

avoided, a softening agent, especially dark linen, can be added.

Although some people choose to wash linen by hand, you can use warm or cold water to clean linen in the washing machine, and

use mild laundry detergent to avoid using laundry detergent containing whitening agents, as these can weaken fiber properties and

cause linen to discolor. Finally, rinse the linen thoroughly with clean water to prevent any traces of laundry detergent that have not 

been removed from causing oxidation of the fabric.

Natural shade drying is more suitable for linen, and low-grade drying can also be used; Avoid dry cleaning as linen may have adverse 

reactions with the chemicals used during the dry cleaning process.

Linen bedding does not require ironing, and natural creases enhance aesthetics. After thoroughly drying the linen, choosing a linen 

storage bag to store linen bedding is the perfect choice, rather than a tightly sealed plastic bag.

What is high-quality linen?

Firstly, make sure you purchase 100% linen, not synthetic linen fabric with other fibers, even natural cotton fibers are not acceptable.

If linen is pre washed, it will become softer and can be used at any time; If not pre washed, it may feel rough to the touch, although pure 

linen will always soften over time.

If linen is dyed, it is worth asking the shop assistant if this dye is environmentally friendly and if it has been treated with chemicals such 

as formaldehyde, as this can affect quality.

Finally, it is important to pay attention to the planting area of flax itself - most high-quality brands purchase flax from Europe.
