Did you know that the average person spends 25 years sleeping?!

That’s a lot of shut-eye. And a lot of time spent in bed.

So, seeing as we’re there (a lot) we really should be giving some thought to what we’re cocooning our tired bodies with while catching those all important z’s. No, we’re not talking about who you choose to snuggle up with (although that is important) we are, of course, talking bed linen.

Not only can well chosen bedding transform a bedroom, add personality and create a look which could be the envy of any bed, it can also make going to bed really rather divine; a moment each day to truly savour. We all know that blissful feeling of climbing into a freshly made bed and snuggling in between fresh, soft sheets for a good night’s sleep. Ahh, makes you sleepy  just thinking about it, doesn’t it?

When it comes to the ultimate sleep experience, Melbourne brand Hale Mercantile Co. is one of our absolute favourites here at The Wedding Nest. With a passion for quality, their luxury linen range is grown, spun, dyed, woven and sewn in Europe and the end result is something quite special; relaxed textural 100% pure linen sheets and linen bedding co-ordinates so sumptuous you’ll find it hard to get out of bed! Each product also comes in a range of beautiful soft colours, sure to make your bedroom beautiful.

And, don’t forget, linen will keep you cool and fresh in summer and warm and cosy in winter so it’s the perfect year-round bedding.

Oh, one last thing. Not a fan of ironing? Fear not. Hale Mercantile Co. linens require no more than a simple warm machine wash and medium tumble dry. No ironing needed. Yay! All the more time to sleep…

Sweet dreams linen lovers.
