At Between the Sheets the flat sheet is not just that !!!!
The flat sheet not only drapes over your body as a top sheet to sleep under at night but when purchased ‘oversized’and draped over your whole be becomes a ‘bed dressing’ by day, just top it off with a few cushions in contrasting tones and textures and you have a really classy bedroom statement !
Flat sheets, in all our soft drape fabrics (pure silk, poly satin, velvet,) have fully finished edges and a deep cuff with our characteristic ‘shell’ stitching.
In particular leather, High Gloss PVC and latex flat sheets offer themselves as throws for sofas and chairs as well as a top sheet in bed; again, a few cushions make the mood change complete.
The poly satin flat sheets are wonderful as window dressing, so soft and floaty and easy to change the feeling of a room by throwing the flat sheet over a curtain pole and allowing the soft drape and shine of the fabric to glow in the natural window light. Use a string of glass beads as a tie back.
Latex and High Gloss PVC flat sheets can be used as 4 poster drapes

Many people suffer from overheating at night or night sweats. This can be a distressing , very uncomfortable condition which can seriously impact on restful sleep and overall health.
Regular sufferers should certainly see their doctor as this condition can be a symptom of some very serious illnesses. However for many people night sweats cannot be cured and its something they simply have to live with.
Natural Bamboo Bed Linen
The condition can be very much helped by sleeping in natural bed linen. Bamboo Bed Linen can make a huge difference. It has huge advantages over cotton – Bamboo is softer, stronger, more lustrous, and three times more absorbent than cotton – it wicks away moisture, so it is cool in Summer and warm in Winter. The softness is ideal for babies and those with sensitive skin or allergic skin conditions. The structure of the Bambo Fibre uniquely wicks away moisture from the body extremely effectively, reducing the body’s temperature.
Here are a couple of testimonials to the effectiveness of Bamboo Bed Linen.
“Since you spend about a third of your life in bed (8 hours per day) and you loose the most sweat there (which causes itching which worsens skin problems) bedding is the most important part of trying to relieve skin problems. Temperature control, moist wicking and breathability is of great importance in this aspect. 100% Bamboo has proven to be the best fabric in all these aspects for the skin problems of H. MB Germany”
“We can confirm that the 100% bamboo has indeed provided a huge relief on the skin problems of H. He has a dust mite allergy and has atopic eczema. The duvet covers already made a difference and with the duvets and mattress topper the relief is even bigger.”

Create the routine of regular bedtime and wake up time
Make a habit of going to bed and waking up at the same time each day, even on days off and weekends. This helps your body clock to keep to these times. Resisting the urge for a lie-in can really help in keeping you alert throughout the day.
If you haven’t slept well, don’t sleep in longer than normal, getting up at your normal time keeps your body in its normal wake-up routine.
Remember that even after only four hours of sleep the brain has gained many of the important benefits.

Too much alcohol can make you restless. It’s fine to have a nightcap but remember that is also a diuretic, which means it encourages you to urinate, which of course leads to to a disturbed night. Drinking can also restrict airflow into the lungs. This can reduce oxygen in your blood which again may disturb your sleep and can contribute to a hangover.
Restricting airflow into the lungs is also a major cause of snoring which again can lead to a disturbed sleep.
Avoid caffeine
Caffeine is a powerful stimulant which can stay in your system for many hours. So during the late evening avoid sources of caffeine. Examples of high caffeine foods are coffee, chocolate, cola drinks and non-herbal teas.

Two thirds of British children have a computer, games machine or TV in their bedroom and could be losing out on sleep as a result.
Take care to keep light from outside to a minimum. Use blackout curtains if necessary.
Look hard at your bedroom lighting . Having bright lights on in your bedroom when you are prearing fro sleep will just stimulate the brain. Low soft lights are best.
Invest in the best bed you can afford. Beds do not last for ever and if your bed is over 10 years old you may need a replacement.
Take care to find quality bed linen in a comfortable fabric that fits your bed. Bed Linen in Natural Fabrics like Pure Silk and 100% Bamboo are ideal.
