Ways to update your bedroom for winter

“My mom always made a point of switching to winter sheeting the moment May/June rolled around. Now I do it too - climbing into a cosy bed makes all the difference!”

Brushed sheeting adds extra warmth during the colder months which is why it’s such a good idea to update your sheeting in winter. The wonderful thing about Sheet Street brushed winter sheeting is not only do they come in brushed polyester and polycotton fabrications in a range of soft pastel colours, they also come in a selection of seasonal prints!

Switching to brushed sheeting in winter can offer several benefits for a cosy and comfortable sleep experience. Our Sheet Street Mama, Ntombi has named a few:

 

  1. Added warmth: brushed sheeting adds insulation in the colder months, making your bed extra cosy for winter.
  2. Extra comfort: the brushing process creates a plush, soft feel (this is incredibly comfortable to sleep on!).
  3. Durable fabrics: our winter sheeting is made from a durable brushed material, allowing it to maintain its quality even when it goes through washing cycles. That means you can use your winter sheets for many winters to come!
  4. Versatility: Sheet Street offers brushed sheeting in various designs, patterns, colours and sets, giving you plenty of options to match your bedroom décor and personal style.

 

Styling and storing blankets in your living room

“Layer blankets of different textures and weights on your couch (especially during winter). It adds extra warmth and looks great!”

When the colder winter weather sets in, there’s nothing quite like wrapping yourself in a warm, snug Sheet Street blanket while relaxing in the comfort of your living room. Here are a few tips from our team on how to style and store your winter blankets. From the easy-to-store blanket fold-and-roll to the relaxed draped look, these techniques will make your living room feel like home while ensuring that your blankets are always within arm’s reach. Here are a few of our go-to techniques from our blanket styling whiz, Michellene:

1. Fold & Roll
For a clean and organised look, consider the folded and rolled technique. Fold two blankets with different textures and colours and then roll them into neat compact bundles. The wonderful thing about the fold and roll is that you can easily place a woven basket in your living room and store your blankets inside to declutter your space on slightly warmer days.

2. Drape & Go
For a more relaxed look, drape a thick blanket over the armrest of your couch and let it fall naturally. This is effortlessly stylish and functional, ensuring your blanket is easy to reach and use when you’re lying on the couch during movie nights.

3. Neatly Layer
Pick a neutral-colour blanket that matches your living room décor, then, fold it and layer it neatly over the back of your couch for a tidy look. Add some colour by layering a lightweight fleece blanket in a colourful print and bulk up the winter look with faux fur scatters.

By incorporating these home hacks from our Sheet Street Mamas in your bedroom and living room, you can make sure you have all the warmth you need for winter.
