Nautical Bedding Collections For An Ocean Theme Bedroom

Nautical Bedding Collections For An Ocean Theme Bedroom

Nautical themed bedding is a wise choice for anyone who wants to create an ocean theme or design in their bedroom. Decorating a bedroom with the blues of the tropical ocean can recreate the same feelings experienced on a trip or vacation. Beach themed, white rattan furnishings often finish the “look”. Since bedding and window treatments are commonly the focal point of the room, selecting them is very important.

Nautical themes offer fresh and crisp options. Seacoast motifs and waves stitched into sea-like colors and patterns make for a soothing retreat-like setting. Tropical and beach images on sheets, comforters, duvets, throws and pillows generate a tranquil atmosphere. Sheets and bedding can help the imagination sail into the sea of sleep. A well-deserved nap or merely a relaxing moment to escape from reality would come more easily.

When accented with pieces suggestive of travel around the world, bedrooms and guest rooms take on an exotic essence. Sea-shell and sea-foam colors lend a refreshing feel. A room can attain a refreshing atmosphere with the addition of sea-shell and sea-foam hues. Only a few alterations can create the feel of a vacation in an island paradise. The latest technological advances allow for photos to be printed on material; so, printing photos of vacations by the sea on bedding makes a unique and distinctive collage that would be interesting as well as comforting.

Quilts sewn together with patches of beach-signs and coastal patterns, lifeguard stands, shells and coral are stunning. Stripes and surfing motifs bring focus to a room reminiscent of leisurely times at the waters’ edge. Some subtle suggestions of seacoast trips will assist in achieving the relaxing motif you are looking for.

Nautical style bedding brings blues and soft pastels to the room that will help you to create an island oasis in any home. A set of new sheets, a duvet, and pillow shams with a sea coast theme can take the imagination to sunny islands, tropical breezes, and the lush vegetation that is found in the tropics. The allure of sand dunes, palm trees and shimmering waves can be printed on the bedding.

Bedrooms for children can be styled with nautical items to create a play time at the ocean where imaginations soar off to faraway lands in fanciful pirate ships and deep sea treasure hunts. Materials which display a star motif, striped sheets, or wave and anchor prints provide seaworthy backgrounds for an adventuring youngster on the imaginary ocean. Comfortable sleeping areas by night can evolve into exciting play areas by day when patchwork quilts and duvet covers are made from material depicting sailing boats, pirate ships and treasure chests.

Pillows, pillow-cases and pillow shams resembling items used at sea can turn into exciting play toys. Nautical tools used by play pirates might consist of compass-shaped stuffed material with pointers that actually spin, soft steering wheels sewn onto a bedspread and pirate hat shaped cushions. A variety of other stuffed toy items such as fuzzy yellow ducks, big whales and wave-like shapes doubling as headrests make for fanciful voyages to the pretend seas.

Making a bed with Luxury Bedding

Decorating or redecorating a bedroom is a time consuming and frustrating experience. Knowing what we want and finding the perfect bedding ensemble isn’t always a perfect fit. Today, consumers have more bedding choices other than the traditional quilts and bedspreads of yesteryear. Textile companies have answered the needs and desires of consumers by creating comforters in various thicknesses and also introduced Matelasse Coverlets and Duvet Covers in diverse styles, assorted fabrics, and color ranges. We see beautiful luxury, designer bedding collections in magazines and day dream a moment before discarding them as “too expensive.” But when given the facts it’s easy to see that luxury bedding and linens are actually a better return on our investment due in part by manufacturers crafting bedding geared towards home owners who simply want the best available. Bedding that highlights the room, feels fantastic and will hold up to everyday use throughout the seasons, surpass our expectations on comfort and provide years of enjoyment. While it is true that quality bedding can be purchased off store shelves, the savings are minimal yet comfort, quality, selection and value may be compromised.


Bedrooms are used today for more than just sleeping. It’s a quiet retreat where we can curl up with a good book, look through magazines, work, watch television, or simply have fun, playing and spending time with family. Bedroom décor and all that’s within can and does affect our mood. Quality fabrics, rich colors, textures and softness provide us with a comfortable place where we can peacefully sleep and wake up refreshed.


In order to achieve the perfect bedroom important elements need to be considered; such as creating a bedroom that feels as good as it looks, knowing what style we want to accomplish, taking into account what activities will take place, and of course one’s budget.

Taking time to think about colors that make you feel good and complements other furniture in the bedroom should be a prerequisite to purchasing designer bedding. Keeping an open mind on the use of color often times has a pleasant ending. While you may dislike green using it in subtle shades or hues can enhance the other furnishings in your room and pull the look together. Flores, stripes and checks with greens, tans and burgundy will give a country feel, while various shades of blue, white and other soft colors merged with large print floras and stripes will give your bedroom a seaside touch. Bold colors and geometric shapes are a good choice for a modern flair while clean lines create a contemporary theme.

For couples, decorating a bedroom together can be a major issue, she wants something with flowers and he wants a solid bedspread, after all it’s just a bed, a place to sleep. In order for this to work, compromises need to be made to help ensure both individual style choices interconnect seamlessly. Start by deciding on a color palette that is suitable for both. Once this issue has been resolved consider using a duvet with a simple pattern, add a Matelasse Coverlet, often a solid colored tone-on-tone cover with texture. To satisfy her desires pull the look together by using decorative pillows in various sizes, shapes, fabric prints and textures, after all…it’s the attention to detail and all the decorative touches that matter most.


A Simple Explanation of Thread Count


One of the biggest mistakes people make when purchasing luxury bedding and linens is buying solely on thread count. However, what you may not understand about thread count may lead to disappointment. So what exactly is thread count? Thread count is simply how many threads (warp) lengthwise and (weft) widthwise are woven into one square inch. While many retailers advertise high thread count linens at wonderful prices your expectations may not be met when the softness and quality are not found. A thread count of 200 can be a better purchase over a 600 count when quality grade fabrics, a better finishing process and a low weave count is used (one thread woven over one thread is better than two threads woven over two threads). Not only will the linens have a softer feel they will also last longer making you a happy consumer.

Bedroom Decor – Get a Whole New Look, Just by Changing the Bedding

Bedroom Decor – Get a Whole New Look, Just by Changing the Bedding

While bedroom makeovers often focus on changing paint colors, flooring or carpet, wall art, lighting and window treatments, you can make a drastic change just with bedding. Your main concern when choosing bedding is the color of the walls and flooring. Unless you have a very thematic wall mural painted on a wall, you will be able to bring in almost any style of bedding that appeals to you with success as long as the colors blend or accent harmoniously. This is one of the biggest advantages of using neutrals or light pastels for wall colors; you can change the accents to suit your mood or the season without having to paint or make major changes to the decor.

As an example, if your walls are painted in a light taupe and your floors are neutral as well, you can bring in drama to the bedroom with bedding in shades of red, cream and khaki. With this color scheme, you could go very modern, with a bedspread of modern geometrics, graphic flowers or bold color blocks. Take the same color scheme and make it English country with a block print quilt of flowers in shades of red and rose against cream and khaki with pillows, shams and bed skirt accenting the same colors but in a mix of pattern, including gingham checks, ticking stripes, a contrasting floral pattern and plaids. Or make this color scheme eclectic with a paisley comforter in the same color scheme with bold stripes and accent colors in deep jewel tones.

Then take the same taupe walls and neutral floor colors and go a totally different direction. How about combining sophisticated shimmering crystal blue and deep espresso or chocolate? You could even go with shades of pale blue and green with accents of cream and brown to work against the same wall and floor colors.

Now that you see how you can use the same color scheme to get many different looks, we’ll talk a little about bedding components.

Bedding Basics

• A true bedspread will go all the way to the floor, blocking your view of the area beneath the bed. A quilt or comforter only drapes over three sides of the bed and does not reach to the bottom of the bed; when using a comforter, the box spring below the mattress is visible. Therefore, when choosing a comforter, you should choose a coordinating bed skirt as well. If your bed has side rails and you’d rather not use a skirt, you can use a coordinating fitted sheet to cover the box spring.

• A bed skirt doesn’t have to be an exact match to the comforter. Many bedding companies sell coordinating pieces in the same line: A striped skirt may be coordinated to go with a floral comforter. You can add a little designer flair if you mix up patterns in coordinating colors: solids, stripes, checks, florals, etc. all work together when united by color. You can also coordinate a square pleat bed skirt in a solid color or choose a lacy or embroidered skirt. Lay fabrics and options against each other in the store to mix and match and get a signature look, instead of one that looks pre-packaged.

• Mix and match sheets with your outer pieces. The pillows you sleep on will be hidden under the comforter or bedspread, so purchase a set of pillow shams that fit over an extra set of pillows and brings another coordinating layer to the mix. Make sure that your pillow sizes match your mattress size: king size pillow with a king size bed and queen pillows with a queen size mattress.

• Throw pillows are the icing on the cake. You’ll find them in every shape and size, from round or square, to bolsters, ovals, rectangles and themed shapes. Satin, corduroy, crochet or lace, cotton ticking, needlepoint and unlimited theme designs allow you to top of your new bedroom decor with a luxurious pile of finishing touches.
