Duvet Covers: Use Duvet Covers For Bedding Protection and Variety

Duvet covers are the best mean to protect your comforters. They look like a kind of (good-looking) bag with opening at one end with a multi-button closure. As duvet covers take most of dirt and stains that may endanger your comforters’ cleanness, they allow you to wash comforters rarely, thus preventing any possible damage (down is easy to destroy while washing). Applying duvet covers can extend comforters’ lifespan three or even four times, providing the covers are put on all the time.

How to choose the best duvet cover for your bed: Choose duvet covers using the same 'rules' as comforter purchases. Make sure the covers are of the right size (not too small!), right pattern and right price. You don’t have to spend much time deciding which duvet covers you should buy.

In most cases they are cheap enough to buy two-three sets at the same time, so you can buy all duvet covers’ sets you like and just change them from time to time. The only thing you should care about is their size. Always buy duvet covers that are about an inch bigger than comforter or pillow you like to put in a cover. If the sizes match exactly, you will have problems fitting comforters into the duvet covers you’ve bought.

Use duvet covers for a quick-change for a bed or room look. A brightly colored protector can dramatically change the entire look and atmosphere of your room without the cost of an expensive redesign.

Sewing your own duvet covers:

There is also an alternative for buying ready duvet covers. You can sew them yourself if you don't mind dealing with very large sections of fabric. Self-made duvet covers might be as good as bought ones providing you can sew well or you don’t mind imperfections. Otherwise it is much better to buy them.
