I renew a boring double bed

I love to get into a snuggly made up bed

I love to get into a snuggly made up bed

Ah, nothing like new bedding! I wanted to refresh the bed in the back bedroom, so I bought a new mattress cover and sheets that fit perfectly. It’s an 8″ mattress and my fitted sheets fit up to a 16″ mattress.  That means it’s not a snug fit for the bed. That means the bottom sheet won’t stay tucked in.  I solved that by buying a king size flat sheet which I tucked completely around the double bed so that it stays tucked. It worked like a charm!  With the new padded mattress cover, it feels very plush.  The bed was rather low to the floor, so I added bed risers  (see coupon here) to give it another 4″ in height. I love a tall bed, it feels … majestic somehow.  These changes made it seem like a brand new bed. It was taller, more padded, the sheets were a snug, tight fit. It looked smart and felt luxurious. I love a made bed. I won’t get in a messy, unmade bed. Even when I sleep, the covers on top stay fairly straight as I move around underneath them.  That’s because I have the hugger pillow under the covers with me. Sometimes I get out of bed and I can barely tell I’ve been in there.  I love my new snug bed.

My new bedroom is finally together!
