Anyone tried Silk bedding before?....

I do not waste time checking such irrelevant details of inanimate objects woofy,

I go for the pleasure whether it was in cat litter, straw,

or Brentford nylons, which always included elbow, 'n knee cap burns.

Does not matter to real men how the bed is made, the pleasurable experience in it is all.

I have never knowingly given a sheet one.....

Sorry luv, but if you were on the hunt and made it to his bedroom it would be game over....regardless of silk sheets, cotton sheets, water bed, futon bed...or just a mattress on the floor!...I don't think you would be critiquing the decor and soft furnishings of the room!

GinaG3 - does your sister have a website or something? - can you pm me the details please?

I'm off down to selfridges & Harrods this weekend to check out the goods...i hope they let me sample the goods!

[SteveT]

Why not get her to put the prices up here, she might make a few quid?

Come on GinaG3 you have sewn the seeds, give it to us straight,

I have to buy my eldest daughter a birthday present in the next couple of weeks.

Hmmm.....depends. A bit of multi-tasking could come in handy here.

And don't guys just love to get advice from their girlfriends on how to redecorate/furnish their apartment? No? ;-)

"Unlike traditional cotton pillowcases which draw moisture from your face and hair as you sleep, silk will allow your skin to retain its natural moisture."

Ah, the joy of slithering in one's own sweat!

[fractionater]

but the point is you won't be sweating much, as Silk filled duvet maintains a more constant temp, unlike feather & down which causes you to overheat and hence sweat.

Sounds like what you should do is get some nice new sheets and some silk pillowcases. I googled those yesterday and found some for ?18 each. Tempted to get a pair myself. Feather and Black do some very nice soft silk effect cotton sheets and duvet covers a friend of mind bought a year or so ago and she really recommends them. They have a sale on as well.

Silk bedding will be amazing more than you thought.

Matching silk pillowcases can offer a different appearance to your bed or couch as well as lending a comfy appeal. Claiming to be useful for healthy hair plus skin, specific materials are used for matching silk pillowcase to be each engaging and comfortable in discovering new concepts for the pair. However, some manufacturers take advantage of our passion for color and use our weakness for what is trendy and fashionable to pass off poorly sewn comforter sets made from flimsy fabrics that won?t make it past one sleepover without a rip, tear or a failed trip through the laundry with where the dye either ran or faded to the point of no return.So take your time to find one real good seller would be save greatly cost. http://www.ellesilk.com or http://www.silksleep.com are all expert in China and if you don't want to shop so far, take Amazon for chance, although it does not expertise on it.

get yourself some Egyptian cotton sheets..not too expensive if you buy from TK Maxx!!

I tried silk sheets once I thought that I might fall out at the side, so I put my Zimmer in beside me and walking stick the other side, I have to have four pillows to prop me up. I woke up with a jolt as I had slid out of the bottom with my nightshirt up my legs reflecting in the mirror, not having my glasses I thought that I was entering the Blackwall Tunnel.

I have gone back to using cotton sheets and when it gets real cold I put my old army overcoat over the bed,and my beret over the pot to stop it freezing.

Well done for finding this thread so quickly. Some people will just start a new one willy nilly like, without even checking.

For silk bedding I'd highly recommend Jasmine Silk https://www.jasminesilk.com/

We used to have silk bedding for years, but eventually the romance dies off, and you end up wanting your own space, and eventually your own bed. The practicality wares off and it can give terrible chaffing in summer. I discovered the luxury bedding range at primark and never looked back. Does the same job for half the price!

We have silk duvets and pillows - would personally never go back to feather. My wife is asthmatic so it is also the best for her.

The one main issue is it can't be washed as easily as feather or synthetic - so be careful!

Bore off robbin. People that have to raise grammar and spelling superiority usually aren?t that great themselves. Shall I dissect some of your old posts and see what I can come up with? I?m sure it won?t take long, but unsurprisingly I have better things to do with my time, such as watching paint dry!
