Summer time! do you have proper bedsheets?


It's hot, sticky, and humid, well it can be if you don't have central air. This summer make your bed feel the most comfortable it can be by following these simple ideas.

1) Do not buy fitted or flat bed sheets that exceed 600 threads per square inch. A weave greater than 600 is too tight which results in trapping body heat, & prevents skin from breathing properly, which as we all know can be very uncomfortable.

2) The day's are longer which can be great but if you have children that you want to place into bed early or even have a job that requires you to sleep during the day, don't automatically feel like you have to paint your room black just so you can get some decent shut eye. Try investing in some custom blinds or drapes, I recommend a roman blind backed with a light blocker. I have this in my guest room and everyone that sleeps in there never is up at the crack of dawn (unless an alarm is set)

3) Too keep your room as cool as possible if you do not have air conditioning keep your blinds and Windows closed during the day while your at work. This wont allow the sun to heat up your home as fast. Once the evening comes open all the windows to allow the cool summer breeze in, it's like having your own air system.

4) Make it your oasis, keep only BEDROOM item in this space. Removing anything associated work, kids, parents, TV anything you may find stressful and not allow you to fully relax in this space! You need to have one space with in the home you can call your own, making it the bedroom wont let you down! Think of a high class hotel room, everything is segregated from each other and the bedroom's remind you of an oasis, a getaway why not have one at home!?

Sweet dreams & Stay cool
