How to Make the Perfect Bed
They say you spend nearly a third of your life in your bed so you might as well as make it as comfortable and luxurious as possible.
The Right Linens
Linens should be 100% cotton in a high thread count, if your budget allows. Here are a few brands that offer high-quality options. If you have the time and inclination, ironed sheets make a world of difference.

For super luxurious pillows and duvets, Hungarian, Canadian and Polish goose down is pretty great. You can buy a light comforter for summer and a medium one for when it’s colder and then combine the two for the winter. Cloud 9 Comforts has a huge array.
Mattress Toppers
I love the Serta Perfect Sleeper Pillow Top Mattress. My guests always say it’s like sleeping on a cloud. In the UK, Vi-spring makes the most comfortable mattresses.
Alarm Clock
To avoid a ruthless wakeup from a beeping alarm clock, Serenity Health offers a few that simulate gentle sounds and even a dawn simulator which imitates the light rising in the morning.
