How you choose to outfit your bed is personal preference, but are you well-schooled in distinguishing one layer from the next? What is the difference between a duvet and a quilt? What is a coverlet? Should you choose a bedspread or a blanket cover? And what is a bed scarf? Scroll down for our informative bed coverings glossary.

 When it comes to comfort, the type of bed sheets and pillowcases you choose can make a big difference.  Choose high-quality bed sheets made from materials like Egyptian cotton or bamboo for a soft, breathable feel.  Adding a bed pad can also increase the comfort of your mattress and provide an extra layer of cushioning.

Cotton sheets have a more traditional, preppy vibe. Percale and brushed cotton are best suited for rooms with a classic décor, while sateen sheets would perfectly complement a more modern bedroom.

It's often the little details or finishing touches that can help make your bedding feel luxurious. After all, it's the thought that counts! So we have added several special details to our scooms bed linen.

If you are on the hunt for cooling sheets, there are two main types of fabrics that will be beneficial to you: sheets that are breathable or sheets that are temperature-regulating. 

In most cases, a duvet cover is constructed by stitching together two rectangular sheets of cloth on all four sides. One sheet is then cut lengthwise along the center, allowing the duvet to be fitted within the cover once it has been folded. Additionally, high-end duvet covers include ties at each corner, which allow the duvet cover to be fastened to the duvet at each of the four spots where it is tied. This design prevents the duvet from being bunched up within the cover.

And we just can’t let that happen. 

Linen bed sheets are less explored, which explains why there are fewer types of linen bedding on the market. The highest quality linen lies along the world-renowned Western Europe flax belt - crossing through Belgium, France, and the Netherlands. The climate along this belt is optimal for growing and harvesting flax, bringing about the Belgium and French Linen we hear of today.
