What are the sizes of bedding
The choice of bed linen is time consuming. You can endlessly go through the options, but you never dwell on certain textiles for the bedroom. The selection process is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. It is necessary to be guided by the established criteria, and then it will be easier to decide on the purchase. It is necessary to take into account not only the sizes, but also the quality of the fabric, the colors. Size is of the utmost importance.
There are standards of domestic and foreign manufacturers. Today, the purchase of imported furniture or mattress is not uncommon. Therefore, the choice of bed textiles should be considered based on the furniture purchased.
Bedding sizes
The choice of bed linen should be approached very carefully. And be as judicious as possible. A small sheet will wrinkle, a large sheet will hang over the edge of the bed. The same applies to the duvet cover, a large size will give the duvet room to shift.
The quality of a good sleep is directly dependent on the choice of bedding. It is the wrong size that affects the flow of sleep. Therefore, the purchase of bed linen should be done carefully. Sets made according to standard norms are primarily related to the area of the blanket.
Before going to the store, you should measure it, ideally - take information from the label of the thing, if it has been preserved. There are a number of criteria that a buyer must consider when choosing a duvet cover, sheet and pillowcase.
The duvet cover is usually purchased 5 cm wider and longer than the size of the duvet. So he can freely fit him. Even if there is data from the label, be sure to measure the object yourself. During use and washing, it may shrink or stretch.
When choosing a sheet, you should start from the size of the mattress. It is necessary to make measurements, based on them, take the product 20 cm wider. If you plan to tuck the sheet under the mattress, then its width should be 50-60 cm wider. Here you need to build on the thickness of the product.
Choosing a pillowcase is the easiest task. In sets, as a rule, there are two pairs of pillowcases to choose from: 50 to 70 and 70 to 70. If the choice goes towards orthopedic pillows, then textiles are attached to them. The industry offers the following types (bed linen sizes):
- kits according to European standards;
- maxi - large sizes of linen;
- nursery - for a child from 2 years old;
- standard sets: for a single, double or one-and-a-half bed;
- for a married couple: family.
Sometimes in this variety it is difficult to decide. Indeed, in addition to the novelties of the KPB, various beds appear on the furniture industry market, which are far from standard sizes. And it is not easy to understand which lingerie is better to choose. There are textile models that have standard bedding sizes.

Foreign standards
Foreign standards for the size of bed linen are somewhat different from domestic ones. But taking into account the appearance of imported furniture on the market, it is necessary to correspond to these dimensions. Some stores are focused not only on the parameters of the Russian Federation, but also on other samples.

How to choose the right kit, according to the size
It is enough to limit the choice of bed linen to three criteria:
- fabric and its quality;
- size according to bedding: mattress pillowcases;
- drawing on the material.
The quality of the fabric is one of the selection rules. Since even the appropriate size will not save if the sensations from contact with the bed linen are not comfortable, or allergic reactions appear.
Coloring is a personal matter for each customer. Often it depends on the design of the room - you want beauty and harmony in everything. For a baby kit, the preferences of the child are inherent. Children often choose car beds, dolls, robots. Based on this, you should carefully consider the size: measure the mattress, the length and width of the blanket.
The bed is purchased for a long time, which cannot be said about bedding. Even high-quality products deteriorate over time. But this is not a reason to dismiss her choice. The wrong size causes a lot of inconvenience and disrupts sleep.
What determines the size of a family bedding set
A family bed kit is the right solution for a couple.At the beginning of a relationship, it always seems that sleeping together is a sheer pleasure that does not cause any inconvenience. But over time, when age-related changes occur, this illusion disappears. What's in a regular family bedding set? Typically two pillowcases, two duvet covers.
The shape of the pillowcase may vary. This is convenient, because even spouses may have different preferences for choosing a pillow model. A set for one bed may include products for square or rectangular pillows.
Bed for a child, sizes
This type is called a nursery. Suitable for the age period when the baby no longer sleeps in the arena, but at the same time is not old enough. Here you have to choose either the set sizes, or make tailoring to order. For a child's bed, strict dimensions should be chosen so that the child is comfortable, taking into account every centimeter. As a rule, furniture manufacturers are familiar with bedding standards and try to produce bed models according to these requirements. Even taking into account the choice of a toy bed, the linen on it should fit perfectly.
Many parents provide comfortable conditions for the child's play, leisure, but the choice of a bed is limited to the choice of a comfortable and beautiful bed, a soft blanket. At the same time, the wrong choice of the size of the children's bedroom set threatens to ruin the most pleasant impressions of a comfortable blanket. Even a pillowcase that is too tight will not allow the product under the head to be soft and comfortable.
