Winter Bedding Layers
Winter is here, and there’s no better time to refresh your bedroom with a warm and inviting look. Layered bedding not only elevates the visual appeal of your space but also provides the ultimate comfort during chilly nights. At Make It Blanket, we specialize in bespoke European linens that combine luxury, functionality, and timeless style. Let us guide you through the art of layering bedding to create the coziest winter retreat.
Why Layered Bedding is Perfect for Winter
Layering bedding is more than just a style statement—it’s practical. A layered bed allows you to adjust your warmth throughout the night while offering a plush, indulgent aesthetic. It’s the perfect way to add texture, color, and dimension to your space, making your bed the centerpiece of your winter decor.
Step-by-Step Guide to Layering Your Bed
1. Start with the Basics: Luxurious Sheets
The foundation of a cozy bed begins with soft, breathable sheets. Choose 100% European linen sheets from our collection for a natural, stonewashed finish that feels sumptuous against the skin. Linen’s moisture-wicking properties keep you comfortable, while its timeless look sets the stage for your winter bedding ensemble.
2. Add Warmth with a Quilt or Coverlet
For the second layer, opt for a lightweight linen quilt or coverlet. At Make It Blanket, our bespoke linen quilts offer an extra layer of insulation without adding bulk. These versatile pieces add subtle texture and can be folded at the foot of the bed for a casual, layered effect.
3. Top with a Duvet or Comforter
A plush duvet is essential for staying warm on frosty nights. Our stonewashed linen duvet covers, available in an array of neutral and earthy tones, provide a cozy yet breathable top layer. Pair it with a high-quality duvet insert for optimal comfort and loft.
4. Enhance with Throws and Blankets
Drape a waffle-knit linen blanket or a chunky knit throw over your duvet for added texture and warmth. This extra layer is not only functional but also creates a lived-in, welcoming vibe. For oversized beds, our European-made waffle linen blankets are a perfect fit.
5. Finish with Pillows
Pillows are the cherry on top of a beautifully layered bed. Mix and match sizes and fabrics for depth. Incorporate our new silver silk pillows for a touch of luxury, or stick with classic linen pillow shams for a cohesive look. Adding a couple of oversized euro shams can elevate the ensemble while creating a comfortable backrest for bedtime reading.
Pro Tips for Winter Bedding
- Mix Textures: Combine smooth silk with textured linen for a balanced, dynamic look.
- Play with Color: Stick to a palette of warm neutrals or earthy tones like rust, sage, and charcoal for a calming winter aesthetic.
- Don’t Overdo It: Avoid overcrowding your bed—leave room to showcase the unique textures and details of each layer.
