At the end of the day, your bed should feel like a light, fluffy cloud that you can’t wait to jump in to.
In fact, it should really be the most comfortable spot in your home. If you feel like your bed isn’t this way, then it’s definitely time to make a change.
What should you do?
Read on to learn the top 4 tips to make your bed into the comfy cloud you deserve!
1. Layer it Up
Turns out, your single mattress or mattress and box spring may not be doing enough to get the job done.
In order to make your bed comfier, it’s time to layer it up a bit. Start by adding a memory foam mattress, and if you still feel like you need more padding, add in an egg crate mattress pad as well.
Yes, the egg crate pads look a little crazy, but they won’t be noticed once the sheets and blankets are on. Plus, they really get the job done in terms of adding more comfort to your sleep.
While you’re looking at your mattress, take a look at your whole bedding system as well. You may want to consider investing in a fully customized sleep system to really up your comfort levels.
2. Pillows, Pillows, and More Pillows
If there’s one thing there can really never be too much of, it’s pillows.
Adding a few textured and fun decorative pillows to your bed is the key ingredient you need to make it look more inviting. Plus, decorative pillows are a great way to add a touch of your personality to your bed.
Don’t just stop at the decorative pillows. Make sure the regular pillows you sleep on are as good as they come as well. Here are some things you need to consider when choosing the right pillows:
- The fill/fiber
- The fill weight
- The quality of the fill
- Fabric
- Size
The type of pillow that is right for you will depend on a number of personal factors, so make sure you do your research and you don’t just grab the first one off the shelf.
3. Get Down with the Down
If you aren’t allergic to products made of feathers, down bedding can be the perfect addition to make your bed a comfy oasis.
You can buy down pillows, as well as mattress toppers and comforters. Keep in mind, however, that quality is extremely important when buying down products. If you go for cheaper ones, expect to be constantly pricked by the little feathers inside.
If you can’t get down with the down due to an allergy, or you’re not okay with buying animal products, you can also opt for synthetic/down alternatives. Buy ones that are high quality, and you will reap the exact same benefits as real down products.
4. Invest in Great Sheets
Sheets are often the unsung hero when it comes to bed comfort, as most people focus their attention on pillows and mattresses.
However, the right sheets are super important for ensuring your bed is the comfiest spot in the house.
The softer and more decadent your sheets are, the better. Sheets made out of Egyptian cotton are often considered to be the gold standard. Pima cotton is also another great option if you decide not to go with Egyptian.
By following these four tips, your bed will finally be as comfy as a cloud.
