Choosing bed linen for your home can sometimes be very difficult.

The market offers a huge selection of a wide variety of colors and types of products.

One of the main difficulties is choosing the right material, so it is worth understanding the intricacies of the issue before buying.

Calico, cotton or satin?

Calico is one of the most popular types of fabric for making bed linen. Moreover, it is calico that is used to sew children's bed linen, which indicates its safety and quality.

If you prefer beauty, then choose bed linen made of satin. This fabric looks like silk and shimmers just like it, but at the same time it does not slip at all.

As for cotton, or poplin, bed linen made from this fabric has one significant drawback: it cannot be washed in hot water, otherwise it will quickly lose its appearance.

When purchasing products, you should pay attention to the seams, fabric density, and the manufacturer.
