Price Points: V-shaped pillowcases

V-shaped pillowcases

Last week we featured a trio of V-shaped pillows, it’s obvious that we should follow up with a range of V-shaped pillowcases.

I purchased a pillow, as I said I would, and I’m fairly happy with it; I eventually opted for one from Slumberdown. Unfortunately, it could have done with having more filling and being a bit firmer for my preference. I’ll give this one to Justin, and get myself another one.

Anyhow, back to the V-shaped pillowcases… The one that I bought included two bright white pillowcases, which is very useful – I can use them as ‘under-pillowcases’. However, they don’t match the bedding; I want something in cream or very pale yellow.

I just may treat myself to a 100% silk pillowcase when I buy a firmer pillow. The material is noted as being very kind to skin and hair and temperature controlling – all making for a quality night’s sleep!

Sadly, I missed the hugely successful Irregular Sleep Pattern Kickstarter campaign by a couple of days (it ended on the 15th of this month). Someone I follow posted a pic on Insta of a pair of their colourful graphic patterned pyjamas; I fell in love immediately!

Irregular Sleep Pattern was founded in Glasgow by creative couple, Mil and Jolene. The patterns were designed by Mil, solo and sometimes in collaboration with other artists. The 100% cotton fabric used is organic, ethical and produced in Portugal.

Their gender-neutral pyjamas and reversible duvet sets are modelled by Mil, Jolene, their 4 daughters, Truman (the wire-haired Dachshund) and other friends & family.

Silk Bedding Direct specialises in supplying mulberry silk-filled bedding in a variety of prices to suit all budgets. Their affordable premium range is made using a silk/polyester mix. The luxury range is 100% mulberry silk filled with a hand stitched finish which, unlike machine-made versions, improves the insulation quality of the duvet.

Mulberry silk is hypo-allergenic and, unlike other bedding materials, it doesn’t support the growth of dust mites, bed bugs or other microscopic beasties. It’s also contains the amino acid, sericin, which has been proven to improve skin elasticity and has anti-wrinkle properties… it gives new meaning to beauty sleep!

All Silk Bedding Direct silk products (as well as duvets they produce mattress toppers, pillows and eye masks) are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Certified and have been awarded the ‘Confidence in Textiles’ OEKO label.

Each has a number of ‘Easy Clip’ clips around its edge that allow you to fasten together the summer and spring/autumn weight duvets to form a cosy winter version – 3 for the price of two!

Silk is a wonderful insulator and regulator of temperature. If you feel too warm in bed, it allows excess moisture and heat to escape, it also retains heat to keep you warm and snug if conditions get colder.

We’ve been testing the duvet for a week or so now – an unusual trial that involves lots of sleeping! We’ve certainly enjoyed the experience… and have been very impressed by the product. The duvets feel comfortable and luxurious – you can actually feel the smooth, silky nature of the product even through a duvet cover. They’re not too heavy, yet warm and cosy.

We think that our top floor bedroom is now ready for anything that winter can hurl at it! The luxury silk duvet, combined with our wood burning stove and ‘chinchilla’ bedspread, will provide all the warmth required during the chilly nights ahead.
