Luxurious
1. Enjoying pleasures of luxury.
2. Being very fine and comfortable.
Even though the term is usually coined to refer to wealth and extravagance. Like a luxury yacht or a luxury automobile. That does not always have to be the case.
Luxury bedding, what does that mean. I’ll tell what it doesn’t mean. It doesn’t have to mean expensive, exclusive, hand sewn or something you would find on a yacht, in a $1000.00 a night luxury resort, or even in an overpriced store in Beverly Hills. What it does mean is that you feel luxurious, comfortable, cozy and at a price that you can afford without feeling sacrificial. Have you ever been up camping with good comfortable gear or on a beach somewhere relaxing in a nice old lounger and thought you were in the lap of luxury? Probably so, and what made you feel that way is not what it cost or where it came from. It was that you had what you needed to make you comfortable. Things like sleeping under grandma’s old quilt or resting comfortably under a light bedspread on a summer night. There’s the time you stayed warm and cozy under fluffy comforter after a day of skiing on the high mountain slopes. Luxury it’s what makes you comfortable like those old jeans you wash on the gentle cycle to help them last longer and those old tennies that are getting a bit thread bear. Luxury can be those simple easy things in life, and of course it can be extravagance, and a little expensive or a little naughty.
For your bedrooms sake a luxurious retreat does not need to put you in the poor house. When you create your bedroom decor you will put together a style that is warm and inviting with paint colors, decor and bedding accents that come together for a magnificent retreat. After all you spend 30% of your time there and it should invite, entice and draw you to its warm cozy atmosphere. You will use bedding such as a duvet cover or southwestern bedspread. With their eclectic nature western bedding and quilts are also a favorite
Enter the world of comfortable sleep at Quality Bedding Sets and let your imagination run wild.
Create the room you want without spending a fortune. Use our bedding, your imagination and even some of those old furnishings you packed up and forgot about. Give them and your bedroom a breath of fresh air.

Duvets, Comforters. Whats the difference?
Duvet covers are removable and can be laundered easily. If you are looking for an addition to your comforter, or simply a lighter more versatile bed covering, you may want to consider a duvet cover. A duvet cover is a fabric “shell” that is used to cover a down comforter or duvet. You can even use a duvet cover to give new life to that old comforter! Duvet covers are open on one end and can either button, tie or zip shut.
A comforter is a type of blanket. Comforters are intended to keep the user warm, especially during sleep, although they can also be used as mattress pads. Comforters are generally large and rectangular in shape, filled with natural or synthetic insulating material and encased in a shell/covering. Like quilts, comforters are generally used with a set of sheets.
Comforter sizes correspond with bed sizes: twin, full, queen, king, and cal-king. Comforter sizes run slightly larger than actual bed sizes to allow for draping over the sides of the bed. Typical sizes in the United States for comforters are:
- Twin = 64″ Width x 87″ Length
- Queen / Full = 87″ Width x 87″ Length
- King = 101″ Width x 90″ Length.
A comforter is sometimes covered with a duvet (comforter) cover for protection and prolonged use. Duvet is French for “Down”. Comforter covers are similar in principle to pillowcases, usually closed with zippers or buttons. In the United Kingdom, they are only known as special types of padding Duvets.
Comforters are typically packaged in a set that also includes a bed skirt, pillow shams, and sometimes pillows.
Comforters are filled with layers of material such as polyester batting, down feathers, wool, or silk. Comforters also can be made out of fur, usually with a backing of satin or silk. The loft of the filling determines the weight as well as the level of insulation. The comforter is stitched or quilted to secure the filling and keep it evenly distributed.
The outer shells of comforters are typically constructed using cotton, silk, or polyester fabrics or blends, of varying thread counts. Comforter shells vary in design and color, often designed to coordinate with other bedding. Washing a comforter should not be done with a top-loader, minimum capacity to wash a comforter is 3.7.
Duvet Covers:
Duvet covers from the French word duvet “down” Also known as a continental quilt or doona is a type of bedding — a soft flat bag traditionally filled with down or feathers, or a combination of both and used on a bed as a blanket.
Duvets originated in rural Europe and were made from the down feathers of the Eider duck, known for its useful insulating qualities.
Duvets are still commonly used in Europe (especially in northern Europe where it is the most common form of bed covering), and have become popular throughout the world in the late 20th century.
Duvets reduce the complexity of making a bed, as it is a single covering instead of the combination of bed sheets, blankets, and quilts or other bed covers, which is traditional in many parts of the world. The cover is called a “duvet cover” or a “quilt cover”.
In some European countries, any thick, warm blanket is subject to being called a duvet, as this has become a popular name for these kinds of blankets.
In Australia, a duvet or down quilt is often called a “Doona”, which is a genericized trademark (registered to the Tontine Group) which is derived from the equivalent common Scandinavian term dyne and popularized by the retailer IKEA in the 1970s. Originally the term continental quilt was the standard name used across Australia, and some regions continue to use this term.
The term “Duvet day” is used in some countries to describe an allowance of one or more days a year when employees can simply phone in and say that they are not coming in to work, even though they have no leave booked and are not ill. The provision of this benefit became fashionable in the late 1990s with many larger companies in the UK.
A Duvet day is a formal allowance of time off given by some employers, most commonly in the United Kingdom and United States.
It can be stipulated formally in a contract of employment and is considered part of the remunerations package along with Holiday allowance. The term has also since become used by people to reference taking a day off work for no normally accepted reason (such as sick, grievance or holiday) even if they have no official “Duvet day” entitlement with their employer.
It differs from Holiday allowance in that no prior notice is needed. An employee receives an allocation of days where if he or she gets up in the morning and doesn’t want to go to work for any reason, he or she can use a “Duvet day”.

Quick Trip to theSouthwest
The southwest, we talked about it the last time. I had the extreme pleasure of a road trip to Santa Fe and Taos last month. What a trip! It was so beautiful. The Rio Grand Gorge carving itself right through the high desert plain, the history of the Taos square.
Capitan Hernan Alvarado and his conquistadors first arrived there in 1540. Tiwa Indians are believed to have settled the valley around 1350 A.D. Taos was first colonized by Spain 1615

The old Saint Francisco Church built in 1816. When you walk into the church it's hard to explain the spiritual wonder that consumes you. It is a simple church but it is magnificently grandiose. And one of the most painted and photographed churches in the U.S. I
was quite awe inspired the whole time I was in the region. The wonderful architecture, the grand valleys, such a magnificent part of our wonderful country. And there is a lot to do, the excellent restaurants, the galleries, the canyon and museums.
As a lover of southwestern and Native American art an culture one of my favorite galleries and artists is J.D. Challenger.
A true grand master of Native American Paintings. I did not have the good fortune of meeting him, he was in Scottsdale for a show the week I was there. Hopefully on my next trip he will be home.
I could go on and on and will in other posts. But it is getting late on this Sunday night and I need my beauty sleep, so I am going to crawl in bed under my southwestern bedspread.
Anyway as you can tell I do love the style of the southwest. So it only stands to reason that I have southwestern bedding and western bedding as well. I was able to find some incredible bedding sets, duvet covers and comforters at Quality Bedding Sets.com . They have Quality Bedding and of coarse affordable bedding. They have something for everyone's taste whether it's modern or floral, contemporary or quilts. You can and will get luxury bedding at low prices with the quality you and your family deserve.
