Buying Linens

With all the choices on what to purchase everywhere, we ask the question: Is luxury custom bedding worth the splurge? Think of the disposable linens from the big box store. All is good until about 3-6 months later when that bedding doesn't look and feel as nice as it once did. Maybe seams are beginning to fray, or the cotton is just getting stiff. And so begins the cycle of tossing or donating old bedding, and shopping and purchasing more. To break that cycle, the big question becomes - is higher quality bedding that will last nearly a life time worth the splurge? Luxury bedding are those where essential elements like design, fabric selection, and sewing are considered for their quality, fair labor, sustainability, and aesthetic. A luxury product does not complete with a big box product in quantity, it is a smaller scale proposition focused on quality instead. Products that have a focus on slow sewing and quality fabrics will hold up better over time than those mass produced. This is an example of sustainable linens. When time and care has been placed onto the production, that will caring over to the longevity of the product. If reducing landfill is important to you, then buy better and less often. Custom bedding will give you that option. Probably the biggest point of difference between between disposable and luxury is materials and sewing. Premium fabrics like linen will hands down out live cotton, making it a better long term choice. Sewing also is part of equation. When seams fray or bedding changes its shape or shrinks in the dryer, you know that materials and/or sewing are the reason.
