Items Included in a Bedspread Set
If you are looking to purchase a bedspread set, you will be surprised to find that the contents of a bedspread set tend to vary. You can choose bedspread sets which contain from three pieces to as many as 16 pieces. Considering the number of choices available, you are sure to find the bedspread set that is right for you.
A typical bedspread set contains three pieces: the bedspread or quilt and two pillow shams to match. A pillow sham is a pillow case that matches the bedspread. A three piece set is the minimum level of pieces for a bedspread set. Many people choose a three piece set if they are choosing a bedspread to match sheets they already have.
There are other optional pieces that are included in some bedspread sets, and these often include:
Bed Skirt
A bed skirt is a sheet of fabric that has a skirt to match the quilt set. It goes underneath the mattress and serves the purpose of hiding the box spring and the bed frame. Fit properly, the bed skirt should come to just above the floor or just touching the floor. They can add a lot of ambience to a room and really finish off the décor by hiding the less-desirable and un-matching box spring part of your mattress set.
Extra Pillows
Extra pillows are also sometimes included in a bedspread set. These are decorative pillows that come in many shapes and sizes. Most often they are roll pillows, which are pillows that look like a tube or roll.
Also included are large “euro” pillow shams. A euro pillow is a large pillow that is usually 26 inches by 26 inches square. These are also usually used as decorative pillows to help increase the décor of your bedroom set.
Sheet Sets
In some cases, a bedspread set will also include a matching sheet set. The sheet set is usually in a solid color that matches the bedspread set. The sheet set will include a fitted mattress sheet, a top sheet and two pillow cases.
Curtains
Some bedspread sets will also include curtains that match. Usually these are plain hanging, tie back curtains in a size that can be altered to fit your windows with an iron-on hemming strip. The curtain may also contain a swag top to hide the top of the curtains in a decorative fashion.
Bedspread sets come in the same sizes as mattresses: twin, double, queen and king sized bed. There are also bedspread sets for daybeds. Daybeds are smaller than a twin size bed and look like a decorative couch.
When you are choosing a bedspread set for your room, or any room in Your Home, there are a few things you need to consider. Take the size of the bed into consideration. Make sure you know what size your mattress is before you purchase a bedspread set.
Some important questions to ask are: Do you have a box spring mattress? And, if so, how high off the floor does it sit? You can easily shorten a bed skirt (by tucking it up inside between the box spring and mattress) but it is very difficult to lengthen one. If you have a high bed, you may need to measure the distance between the floor and the bed to ensure the bed skirt will fit your bed properly.
The color and décor of your room is another important factor to consider. There are thousands of designs for bedspreads, so you will want to make sure that the one you choose complements the color scheme and theme of your room. There are plenty of themed bedspread sets from princesses for little girls and cars for boys, to safari themes and tropical themes for adults. If your room has a specific theme, a matching themed bedspread set can really finish off the décor in your bedroom.
You will also have to decide about extra pillows. If you choose to have extra, decorative pillows on your bed to finish off the look of the décor, then you should consider where you will store them when you are sleeping. You do not want to put them on the floor necessarily, so you may need to look at a storage solution, such as an end of the bed cabinet that doubles as a seat, where you can store the decorative pillows at night.
You should also consider the other sheets you own. If you are purchasing a bedspread set that does not come with sheets for the bed, you will want to match the sheets you most regularly use with your bedspread set, or purchase new ones to match.
Many people love the look of a finished bedroom, complete with a bedspread set. A bedspread set is perfect for spare rooms, kid’s rooms, or master suites, to finish off the décor and look of the room.
