White bedding

I like white, or pastel colours in the summer. Red in the winter.

I can imagine the state of my bedding if I had white duvet covers with a cat who is not afraid to jump on the bed with muddy paws and also shed her black hair.

I have white linen duvet covers from a company called Soak and Sleep. They were very reasonably priced and feel gorgeous.

We have a white embroidered duvet set from M and S brought during one of their 20% off promotions. It looks and feels lovely but does need ironing.

Take the plunge tanith, I have white duvet covers and they just look so lovely! Always stay white. If I had tea and biscuits in bed, like Ana, then I'd probably be wary of white, but I've always hated sitting up in bed with a cup of tea - if I'm awake I'd rather get up and sit downstairs with my morning cuppa.

It is so much easier if everything is white cotton , it all matches!

I too use white bedding always but I'm not brave enough to have a white duvet cover too, I wash at 60* now and then and the sheets and pillow cases stay white and soft. I buy mine either online or at Dunelm.

Have had white bed linen for years, find they look good longer, you can mix and match and you have no patterns fighting. Only wash once a week on 40 deg. I too find TK Maxx a good source and also Dawson's Department store on line. Christies seem to keep white longer, whereas anything with a bit of polyester goes creamy coloured eventually.
Your bedroom sounds lovely Indinana. I put duck egg blue throw and cushions with mine, in the futile hope of achieving a calming effect.

I'm amazed - my bedroom could never be that pristine! I actually sit on the bed to dry my hair, put makeup on etc., plus I drink tea in bed and sometimes even eat a biscuit...

I'd be forever washing white linen and life's too short. Each to their own, of course.

TKMax is my favourite store for buying very good quality sheets, duvet covers, pillow cases etc. They often have plane white bed linen 'hotel' quality, i.e. very good quality cotton at half or even less of the original price. As for keeping them white and soft, I wash mine on a hot 60 wash every other time - no problems.

I use white bedding, Egyptian cotton from Dunelm Mills. I've never had any problems keeping it white, TBH. I have psoriasis in my scalp and often find little blood spots on the pillows where I've been scratching my head in my sleep , but I just put them through a hot wash, adding Oxy in with the washing liquid.
My bedroom is painted white, with white and silver wallpaper on two walls, white furniture, white lampshade and a silver grey carpet. And, of course, the all white bed. It is my sanctuary, a little haven of peace and tranquility .

We buy cheap white bedding and put our lovely patchwork on top.
