One of the important articles to be considered while decorating the bedroom is the bed sheet. Much needs to be taken into consideration while making a purchase of them. Apart from considering the basic factors like size colour and style the make or the cloth used in making the bed sheet too needs a sound judgment.

Basically an ideal sheet is the one whose fabric is skin friendly, does not get crumpled and is comfortable to sleep on. People have varying degree of satisfaction levels but it is generally noticed that Egyptian cotton bed sheets are much appreciated by the people worldwide, irrespective of the different geographical locations they are living in.

Bed sheets are generally available in combed cotton, Egyptian cotton, flannel, Italian linen, muslin, Percale, pima cotton, satin and silk fibre. Each fabric comes with its specific properties. Some are pocket friendly and some can create a hole in the pocket.

Once you have decided with the fabric then you can decide if you want to go in for the fitted sheet or the flat sheet. Personally I like to have Egyptian cotton fitted sheet ...
... n my bed. Reason is quite simple, Egyptian cotton is worldwide accepted as the strongest, most beautiful and lustrous cotton. Because of its high thread count they are very luxurious and being a high density woven sheet they areanti-dust mites and when washed at 60 degree C kills all the dust allergens making it a very healthy choice. The fitted bed sheets are elasticated all around the corner to fit well into the mattress whereas the Egyptian cotton flat sheets have a large hemmed border which looks very graceful. Another advantage of these sheets is that they remain cool during summers and are warm in winters. All in all they make a good choice.

You can get these sheets in beautiful shades and can choose the colour in accordance with the color scheme of your room. They come in plain fabric and also in self-stripe style. The degree of fineness of the sheet increases with the thread counts it have. The Thread Count of good Egyptian cotton sheets starts from 200 and goes up to 1000 TC. Just going a bit further one can select the duvet covers and pillow cases in the same shades as the bed sheets. This will definitely complete the whole look.They also make a lovely gift.

Hope these sheets meet your approval as well!
