Products from natural wool have a good effect on health., although some people do not tolerate the touch of wool to the body due to an allergic reaction to it.

These products do not require frequent washes, since the material itself has the ability to self-clean. Such plaids do not wear out for a long time, it is pleasant to touch them, although sometimes they are prickly. The woolen blanket can be cashmere, camel, pashmina, and also from alpaca wool, from sheep or llama wool.

It is cashmere blanket that sometimes becomes a very expensive gift.as its price is very high.

Cashmere rugs are much warmer than their counterparts from sheep's wool. These products are very soft and fluffy.Over the years, do not lose these properties, if properly care for them.

A variety of cashmere is pashmina. This is the most solid in price and quality material from which the rugs are made.

Today, the fabric of it is made with the addition of cotton and silk. Sixty percent of wool accounts for twenty percent of additional materials. It turns out a light, warm, fluffy product that “breathes” well and is durable, although it requires careful care.

Jacquard blanket can be made by yourself. Needlewomen often create such rugs with intricate patterns of yarn - wool, mohair, any, what your soul orders. Knit and from thick threads, and from thin. It all depends on the intent. It turns out very comfortable and practical things.

Synthetic materials are no worse than natural ones. So, fleece plaids are made of polyester. This material has a lot of merit.

He is not afraid to throw in the washing machine, he allows chemical cleaning.

The choice of fabrics for bedspreads is very large. You can find not only an option that fits the interior of a bedroom or a nursery, but also choose it depending on the season. It makes sense to get two types of bedspreads - for the summer and winter.

For the summer period, suitable covers of cotton, linen, silk, satin, satin. It will look nice on a bed with a Jacquard cover or waffle. Of course, we must bear in mind that satin, linen, silk fabric require special attention and care.This is due to the fact that they do not cause allergies, and it is very pleasant to touch them.

Although there are more modern - semi-synthetic - materials, for example, polisatin - a mixture of polyester and satin. This is a durable, durable, non-swelling fabric, the veil from which will also look great and function properly.

For a cool time, buy cashmere, wool, microfiber, flannel covers. Velvet, knitted, velor, plush, gabardine textiles are also well suited for sewing bedspreads. Fleece fabric will be the way in the nursery just like a flannel or flannelette blanket for a baby’s bed.

You can make a cloth blanket for the bed yourself. For this, even suitable material that is in any home. Some craftswomen sew capes on the bed of jeans.

When choosing a fabric for bedspreads, you need to follow some rules.

According to the texture of the canvas for the bedspread should not contradict the general style of the room. Heavy porters on the windows should match the product of thick fabric with a pronounced texture. For the room in cold colors suitable bedspreads with a satin of silk or satin. The grace of a small bedroom will emphasize the capes of the air, very light materials.

The size of the blanket and bedspread is of great importance. What is important is not that large or small products in size, but how comfortable they are in a particular situation. The wrong size leads to the fact that the cape, harboring furniture, constantly moves down from its place, looks ugly on it, and the blanket may be too voluminous or so small that it is unreal to wrap it in an adult.

As a marching option, a not very large product 1.4 by 2 meters is suitable. Such a blanket is compact when folded and enough to completely hide in the fresh air.

The meaning of the cape for the bed is not only to close bed linen from possible contamination. It is important that the mattress falls under the cover, as well as the frame of the bed itself, along with the legs.

In some cases, it is impossible to find a cape in the store. As a rule, it is associated with furniture of a non-standard size or shape. Then you have to order a veil from a specialist or, if you have the knowledge and skills, to sew yourself.

Plaid - not the thing that is the center of the setting. In addition to the direct function of this accessory, to warm and cover, its task is not to contradict the general style of the interior. If the furniture in the room is monochromatic, soothing shades, on its background a colorful plaid - checkered or with a bright pattern, for example, purple, lilac, yellow, orange, red, may look appropriate. It is good, when the part of squares in a checkered plaid coincides on color with an upholstery of furniture.

You can choose a product of light shades - gray, beige, peach, blue, pale pink, lavender, turquoise, so long as they are two or three tones lighter than the upholstery of the sofa and chairs. But to use a black or brown blanket of a rich shade on the background of light upholstery, on the contrary, a bold and ambiguous course.

Leopard pattern on the bedspread or two-color, for example, zebra, should complement the overall style of the room. For example, overlap with curtains, carpet coloring and other accessories.

If the plaid has a bright floral pattern with inclusions of mint, blue, green, olive, or even it is painted with a rainbow, green or lawn elegant colors (also green in its variety), it has no place in the room full of other bright accents. Perhaps it is better to pick up something like the color of the sky turquoise.
