- Not as common but still used is the top sheet that segregates the sleeper from the duvet and/or comforter.
Next, comes the bottom sheet that covers the mattress. The bedspreads and quilts are used to directly cover the sleeper. Some may use them directly whereas others might have another blanket underneath. Throw blankets are used in addition to regular blankets in order to add more warmth. They can, however, also be used for the purpose of decor. A decorative covering that does not touch the floor but covers the entire bed is the coverlet. Comforters are thicker bed covers that provide warmth. The thickness of the comforter is because of their stuffing. Duvets are similar to comforters, except that they require duvet covers. The duvet cover is what the duvet is covered in. It is also used as an alternative to the top sheet. The continental pillow is kept against the headboard for decorative purposes. The sleeping pillow is the main pillow that the sleeper rests his or her head upon. Decorative pillows, also known as throw pillows are kept on the bed for the purpose of decor only. These can be any shape and size. The pillowcase is what the various pillows are covered or put in. They come in different patterns and sizes. Similar to the pillowcase is the pillow sham. However, these are sewn onto one side and used exclusively for decoration. The bolster is a tube like pillow of differing sizes that is used for both support and decoration. All the above-mentioned items are grouped under the category of bedding supplies. Some are essential for a good night’s sleep whereas others are for comfort and décor. All these items are available in a range of bright and beautiful colors.
