Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of these two distinct terms so that you can make well informed decisions about your bedding choices. Afterall, you can’t risk making a bad bedding choice. Who doesn’t want to crawl upto a perfectly comfortable bed after a long hectic day?
According to National Geographic, the first known mattress dates back to around 77,000 years ago. It was discovered in South Africa in 2011 and was made of reeds and rushes. Researchers believe that a ‘top sheet’ made of insect-repelling greenery was used to help ward off the unwanted night-time visitors.
In addition to material, bedding design is also an important consideration. Whether you prefer a classic, timeless look or a more modern, sleek aesthetic, high-quality bedding are countless design options to choose from.
A common issue with microfiber sheets is static electricity. Due to the synthetic nature of microfiber, static electricity can sometimes build up, causing sheets to cling to your body or feel uncomfortable. To reduce static, it is recommended to wash microfiber sheets with fabric softener or in the dryer, or use an anti-static spray when making the bed.
Both types of sheets can be bought individually or as part of a bed set. A bed set normally consists of either 2 flat sheets and matching pillowcase/s or 1 flat sheet and 1 fitted sheet, again with pillowcase/s to match. It is possible to use flat sheets of a larger size than the actual size of the mattress as the excess can be tucked under the mattress, but when buying fitted sheets it is important to get the right size for the bed – too small and you won't be able to stretch it to fit each each corner, too large and the tautness will be lacking, which means the sheet will move and ruck as you move during your sleep.
Blanket
A blanket is a generic term that refers to almost any bed covering thicker than a sheet, including quilts, duvets, and comforters. It can also refer to a more utilitarian woven covering that is sandwiched between a flat sheet and another layer primarily for warmth. A blanket drapes over the sides of the bed.
