Ed Hardy Bed Linens

Bold animal prints are a Hardy staple.

By Tanya Sharma

Wildly colorful and undeniably creative, Ed Hardy bed linens add a splash of color and a bold look to any bedroom. The line is distinctive and immediately recognizable for its tattoo-inspired prints, and the Hardy bedding collection is nothing short of incredibly imaginative.

About Ed Hardy

Tattoo artist Ed Hardy probably never expected that his workmanship would ever be regarded as a major trend in the worlds of men's and women's fashion. That's exactly what happened, though, when designer Christian Audigier assumed the rights to create a line of clothing and accessories featuring Hardy's unique Japanese tattoo designs. In addition to these, the line also includes a number of lifestyle products, such as computer accessories, barware, journals and bedding.

Types of Ed Hardy Bed Linens

From duvets and pillow shams to sheets and decorative pillows, the Ed Hardy bedding collection, created by Wholly Sheet, includes a little bit of something for everyone. The bedding company utilizes high-quality materials (like 300-thread count sateen and single-ply cotton) and uses digital printing to implement Hardy's work on the linens.

Whether you plan to redecorate the entire bedroom with a tattoo-inspired theme, or simply add a couple of pieces to an existing set-up to liven things up, you can count on finding something appropriate to suit your needs. Among the many items available are:

• Blankets: Soft and plush, Ed Hardy blankets are a great gift idea for anyone who loves the bold and hates the cold. They are made of polyester and acrylic blends for an ultra-soft texture, and are great for throwing over the bed or even the couch as a head-turning accent piece. Note that these are somewhat rarer, but not impossible to find.
• Duvets: Whether bold or subtle, there are a number of duvets available bearing Ed Hardy's edgy artwork. More understated designs feature dark color palettes with minimal embroidery, while adventurous pieces are wildly fearless in their use of opposing colors. Duvets are available in twin, full, queen, and king sizes, and are typically sold in sets with either one or two pillow shams.
• Euro shams: Measuring 26 by 26 inches, European pillows are large, overstuffed squares that a distinct element to any room. Slip an Ed Hardy sham over it and you can count on turning some heads! These pillows are perfect for dens and family rooms, too. Decorative shams like Hardy's can also prove to be great conversation starters. Look for striking prints and a few subtle ones, like multicolored trim around a solid colored center.
• Neck rolls: Slightly unusual but also very fun for the ardent Ed Hardy fan, neck rolls are designed to complement existing bedding collections by the designer. They feature long, lean shapes and are overstuffed for coziness. Available in a variety of prints and solid colors, these pillows also make great complements to simple bedroom d�cor thanks to their diminutive size.
• Pillowcases: Available in standard, queen and king sizes, the Ed Hardy pillowcase lineup is vast. Some styles speak to the darker side of the artist's work, featuring devilish color palettes and fierce art, while others are lighter and almost playful with their soft colors (think yellow and baby blue). Since pillowcases are fairly discreet and not generally visible, they also make a fine addition to an existing set-up, although they can certainly be shown off.
• Sheet sets: Ed Hardy sheet sets offer everything you need, including a flat sheet, fitted sheet and two pillowcases. The sheet sets are packaged in large collector boxes that are etched with the artist's work along the edges. The sets feature fairly bold designs, although some are more demure than others - for example, you may choose to opt for a white sheet set with minimal tattoo artwork if you're going the more understated route.

What to Expect

Not familiar with Ed Hardy's work? Consider the bedding a crash course in all things wild and wonderful. The tattoo artist's workmanship features a host of mesmerizing prints, some of which may not be suitable for the very conservative. Look for Ed Hardy bed linens with:

• Bold pronouncements, like banners stating "Love Kills Slowly"
• Daring patterns, like sharp animal teeth and blazing fires
• Exotic animal prints and unexpected color combinations, like pink and green camouflage leopard spots
• Mermaids posing seductively atop vibrant backdrops
• Playful motifs, like lounging bumblebees and smiling flowers
• Skulls with flowers in their long hair

Where to Shop

Tracking down Ed Hardy bedding can be a bit of a hassle, but it isn't impossible to find the pieces you want. Visit online haunts like Amazon and eBay for the best pick of what's readily available, and be sure to check the latter site frequently for new additions. You may wish to check the Ed Hardy brick and mortar stores, many of which are outlets. Visit the store locator to find the store nearest you.

As with any piece of bedding, it can be tricky to find the right piece without seeing it in person. Unfortunately, you may have to purchase Ed Hardy bedding online, so do some research on the seller's return policy beforehand. With the right piece in your possession, you can count on years of use and plenty of color, too.

SunScreen Smarts!

Summer is officially here, and you are probably enjoying the longer days. But all that extra sunlight means you need to be diligent about applying sunscreen. Most doctors and researchers that specialize in skin cancers agree that most damage happens before you reach adulthood. When you are young, you spend much more time outdoors but you also tend to think less about the consequences of being in the sun sans SPF. So protect your children, and get them in the habit of applying sunscreen at an early age. They will thank you later in life!

1. Put enough on. The recommended application for adequate protection is 35 to 40ml per person per application. How much is this? Think about a shotglass full, or a handful.
2. Budget brands are just as effective as the more expensive brands. It's okay to go with the Pharmacy brand!
3. Sunscreen should be applied to clean, dry skin 30 minutes before exposure to the sun which allows it time to absorb properly.
4. Take time out in the shade between 11 am and 3 pm when them sun is strongest, but still apply sun screen because sand, concrete and water can reflect harmful rays. Same goes for car rides, the sun is coming in through your windows!
5. Reapply. Perspiration, exercise, swimming and towel-drying removes sun creams from the skin so you should reapply after taking part in any of these activities, even if the product claims to be waterproof. You should also reapply ever 45-60 minutes, otherwise you are still at risk for a burn. If you hate reapplying, look into the new continuous spray versions that make applying sunscreen a breeze.
6. Everyday use of sun lotions on your face and back of the hands will limit the chances of developing dry leathery skin, wrinkles, other signs of premature aging and skin cancer. Most moisturizers can be found with a built-in SPF factor, look for something with at least SPF 15. After applying to your face, rub the rest into your hands for instant moisturization and sun protection.
7. When you are laying out, try to cover up in the sun with loose cotton clothing, a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses with UV protection.
8. Use a "broad spectrum" sunscreen with a sun protection factor of at least 15 to protect against harmful UVA and UVB rays. The FDA has recently allowed the use of new ingredients in sunscreen that have been used in Europe for years that provide great broad spectrum protection.
9. Overcast weather still requires sunscreen in summer because 80 per cent of ultra-violet radiation is still present on cloudy days. Some companies have started producing daily body lotions with spf 15 built-in so that you can apply sunscreen without even thinking about it.
10. Children and babies need greater protection so use specially formulated kids ranges with gentler ingredients and higher SPFs.

The difference between a Pillowcase and a Pillow Sham

Question: What is the difference between a Pillowcase and a Pillow Sham

Answer: The common misconception is that they are one in the same. Technically, they have similar functions; they are both slip covers for bed pillows. However, they serve difference purposes and are designed differently.

Pillowcases are more functional. They are meant to be slept on. They serve as protection for your face while you sleep; absorbing oil, perspiration and ?drool, there I said it. Pillowcases are usually constructed from the same fabric as the beds? fitted or flat sheet, and normally designed to match them.

Pillow Shams on the other hand, serves more decorative purposes.� Typically, they are not meant to be slept on, they are there only for embellishment. Pillow shams can add a real nice touch to a room, and serves as a nice compliment to your kids bedding. They are usually designed to coordinate with the kids comforter, quilt, coverlet, or Kids duvet cover and may be adorned with ornate laces, embroidery and generally more intricate patterns than pillowcases. You can also expect pillow shams to be a little more cushioned.

A pillow sham is a wonderful way to add some flair to a tired looking pillow and make it radiant. Pillow shams are usually zipped in the middle, which serves as an insertion point for the pillow. Shams can also serve as a pillowcase, but more people will avoid this because pillow shams are more costly, as they are usually made from more expensive fabric and designed more elaborately.

There is also the Euro Sham. What is a Euro sham you ask; simple, the word Euro means cushion is German, a Euro sham is a cushioned pillow.

How to find kids room decorating ideas

Even professional designers have a difficult time coming up with the right blend of colors and d�cor to decorate a room or house. If you are not able to simply and effortlessly conjure up themes colors and d�cor to make your kids bedroom the envy of your friends of and neighbors, then you are not alone. No one can do that, not even that designer guy from Oprah. It takes some effort and knowledge of where to find the right resources with good decorating ideas.

Don?t panic though, all you have to do is steal ideas, yes steal. There is a saying among designers that great designers steal and good designers copy.� Just find something that you like in a store, a magazine, a book, or on a website, grab the idea and run with it.� No one is going to come to your house and accuse your of infringing any copyright law or anything like that, just find something you like and copy it or portions of it.

There are resources available everywhere to find ideas. Let?s start with the most obvious; home and house magazines, particularly the ones that cater to children?s room decoration.� Don?t get too carried away or intimidated by how stunning these designs can be, they are usually expensive items that are photographed professionally, you might to be able to complete but you can create a pretty good replica with less expensive items, or you might just look at information on color coordination and arrangements.

A few websites that I find very helpful are: about.com ohdeedoh.com/, Apartment Therapy Online stores that offer kids bedding and similar products can also be a great resource, the display pictures sometimes, provides good ideas, lastly and at the risk of this being perceived as a shameless plug, you could search this blogs archive for articles that you might find very helpful.

Banquet Tablecloth Sizes

There are many times you may opt for a banquet-sized table to seat all of your clan. You may find that a standard banquet-sized tablecloth will work, or you might need to have one custom-made. The average height of a table is 30" and a banquet tablecloth has a standard drop (fabric overhang) of 15". This allows the tablecloth to fall halfway between the table top and the floor. If you want your tablecloth to fall to the floor, then you need to add 30" to each side for a total of 60" to the width and length of your tabletop measurements.

Tradeshows and Event Tablecloths

You may be in charge of setting up a booth at a tradeshow that requires unusually long tables and large tablecloths. One popular choice is a typical banquet floor length tablecloth with a logo table runner centered over the tablecloth. This allows you more versatility in colors and patterns in your tablecloth choices that can be changed with seasons and special themed occasions. A second choice is to have your company or organization logo screen-printed directly onto the tablecloth. Cost considerations often dictate which style is best.

• Throw tablecloth: This tablecloth drapes over the table with a full 30" drop to floor length.
• Fitted tablecloth: Pleated corners and merrowed hem (rolled hem sewn with a Merrow serger).

Custom-Made Tablecloths

Custom-made tables can often have odd dimensions and need a specially made tablecloth. You may have an extra large table or a unique room layout that requires an oddly shaped table or simply use two tables together. Whatever the reason that you need a custom-made tablecloth, there are several online sources available for custom-made tablecloths. Just be certain your measurements are accurate before placing an order.

• Tablecloth Designs: If you have an odd shaped table, you're required to create a pattern to submit to the company. Complete instructions are given. There is a one-time fee of $10 for non-standard sizes and an additional $15 fee for any non-standard shapes. There is also a form you can complete for the size you need. In addition, you are encouraged to email or call if you are unsure about the cost or process of ordering your custom tablecloth. Fabric colors are wide with many patterns available. Damask, linen, vinyl and laminate as well as seasonal and holiday themes fabrics are available.
• Le Pin Parasol: Claim that they offer "Custom made tablecloths to suit any table", even one designed for an umbrella table. You can choose from a wide selection of styles and fabrics.

Other Considerations

Before you buy a tablecloth, make sure you take accurate measurements of your table and that it is a standard 30" height from the floor.

Add Drop Length to Measurements

You need to also add-in the length of the tablecloth drop. The drop length of your tablecloth is the amount of fabric that extends beyond the edge of the table. When allowing for a drop, you must remember that all table sides need to be accommodated for a drop length. This simply means you need to double the drop length measurement and then add it to the width and again to the length of your measurements. For a round table, simply add the drop twice to the diameter.

For example, if you have a 60" table and want a 10" drop, then the formula would be:

• 60"+10"+10"=80" round tablecloth

Seam Versus Seamless

One thing to consider when selecting a company is how they construct large tablecloths. Most tablecloths that are over 50" or 60" in width require at least one seam and in some cases, two seams. It's best to check if the company matches patterns vertically and horizontally. While this method requires more fabric, it certainly is worth the extra expense for the professional appearance it gives your tablecloth.

Before You Order

It may help to create a checklist of the various features you need in your tablecloth that you can check off before placing your order. By taking time to double-check your measurements, allow for the drop and understanding how your tablecloth will be constructed, you ensure you end up with your ideal tablecloth.

Beach Comforter Sets

Whether you're decorating your beach home or you just want to bring a little bit of vacation to your own home during the summer months, there are plenty of beach comforter sets out there to choose from. It doesn't matter what color your walls or carpet are or even what type of furniture you have. There are so many different styles of beach bedding, there's something for everyone and every bedroom.

Beach Comforter Set Options

Along with shades of blue and green, you'll find muted earth tones, brights, white, and pastels in beach comforters. You may find army green palm trees set against a sandy beige backdrop nestled in the racks right next to the navy blue and white nautical theme. Some beach-inspired comforters are even brighter, with reds, yellows, greens, and blues thrown together - often against a white background so that they really stand out -- to celebrate the brightly colored strings of tiki lights and fruity concoctions of summer barbecues on the beach. There's no one set "beach" style - just a mix of styles that evoke feelings of carefree, balmy nights, the ocean, the sand, and the palm trees.

Almost any department store or discount store, like Marshall's or TJ Maxx, that carries a selection of bedding is likely to have at least one style of beach bedding during the summer. However, there are some stores that have a more specialized selection. Consider shopping at:

• Home Decorating Company: This company has a large, beautiful selection of beach comforter sets, ranging from a red, white, and blue nautical set to a hot pink and lime green flamingo set. You'll even get free shipping.
• Linen Locker: Overall, this selection is full of muted tones and decidedly beach-inspired patterns. You won't find too many neon comforters with flamingos here, but you will find several classic beach styles in understated tones.
• Beach House Linens: As the name suggests, this is a very specialized site, and worth a browse when you're hoping to decorate a single room in your home or several bedrooms in your vacation house on the beach. Because of the wide variety of beach styles here, you'll see things you might not find anywhere else, like a bright pink set decorated with flip-flops, shells of several types on a pale blue comforter with scalloped edges, or even a black comforter with colorful fish and coral to contrast with white sheets that feature simple blue shells.
• All Seasons Bedding: Here, you'll only find one style of beach comforter set, but it will complement a wide variety of color schemes thanks to its neutral colors. The set is called Palm Beach and it features a palm tree with muted green fronds set against a sandy tan background.
• Bed Bath and Beyond isn't known for its beach-inspired bedding by any stretch, but it does offer a few unusual beachy styles. One of the standout sets is called Palm Beach. This is a bold, bright tropical print that isn't so over the top that it wouldn't work in several different bedroom environments. Colors include deep red, gold, green, and sky blue. Other styles include Hula Girl, Coral Beach, Island Paradise, Fiji, and Olive Kids Pirates, for a range from quite neutral to shockingly bright.
• Amazon: This site is worth a look because of the variety you can find there. You can find everything from a striped set from Nautica to a celery green and white Palm Beach Tropic style featuring large flowers.

Celebrate Summer

Take the breeze, ocean spray, and endless sunshine inside by decorating your beach house or bedroom with light and bright tones that celebrate all the things summer has to offer-palm trees, flip-flops, bright tropical flowers, and white-capped ocean waves. If you want to take things even further, you can even shop for matching curtains and rugs to tie the whole theme together. Give your space a carefree feel and feel your stress melt away.

Beach Comforter Sets

Whether you're decorating your beach home or you just want to bring a little bit of vacation to your own home during the summer months, there are plenty of beach comforter sets out there to choose from. It doesn't matter what color your walls or carpet are or even what type of furniture you have. There are so many different styles of beach bedding, there's something for everyone and every bedroom.

Beach Comforter Set Options

Along with shades of blue and green, you'll find muted earth tones, brights, white, and pastels in beach comforters. You may find army green palm trees set against a sandy beige backdrop nestled in the racks right next to the navy blue and white nautical theme. Some beach-inspired comforters are even brighter, with reds, yellows, greens, and blues thrown together - often against a white background so that they really stand out -- to celebrate the brightly colored strings of tiki lights and fruity concoctions of summer barbecues on the beach. There's no one set "beach" style - just a mix of styles that evoke feelings of carefree, balmy nights, the ocean, the sand, and the palm trees.

Best Bath Towels

Bath towels are some of the most heavily used linens in the home. A quality bath towel needs to be more than just attractive. These linens must be able to withstand repeated washings, they must be soft and absorbent and most importantly, bath towels should be resistant to odors (and mildew from repeated contact with moisture) while being gentle to sensitive skin.

Start With Quality Material

A good bath towel starts with quality materials. The top three materials that high end or luxury towels are constructed from are bamboo fiber, Egyptian cotton and organic cotton.

Bamboo

Bamboo is well-known as an eco-friendly material used to make household items such as furniture. Bamboo can also be used to make textiles, which are constructed from bamboo yarn. Bamboo makes the top of the list for quality materials because of these benefits that occur naturally within the fibers of the bamboo plant itself:

• Bamboo yarn is extremely soft, often compared to cashmere.
• The fibers are very strong.
• It is anti-bacterial, which makes it resistant to odors and mildew, also making it a good choice for people who suffer from allergies.
• Bamboo fabric is breathable and absorbent.
• It is also economical and eco-friendly.

Organic Cotton Clothing GOTS Bamboo Clothes

Bamboo fabric produces towels that are extremely soft yet durable, are naturally resistant to bacteria and are absorbent while quickly evaporating excess moisture.

Egyptian Cotton

In the textile industry, Egyptian cotton is considered the finest type of cotton available. The extra-long cotton fibers, called staples, allow the cotton fiber to be spun into very fine yarns that are soft, durable and more absorbent than regular cotton. Like bamboo fiber, Egyptian cotton absorbs dyes well, resulting in bright, vividly colored textiles. Bath towels made from 100% Egyptian cotton are softer and more absorbent than towels made from ordinary cotton.

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is grown using ecologically friendly standards. The United States and Europe have strict regulations over how the cotton is grown. Organic cotton is produced without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This means linens made from organic cotton will not contain any of the harsh chemicals that can be found in commercially grown cotton. This can be especially important for people with allergies, sensitive skin or certain dermatological conditions such as eczema. You can find high quality organic cotton towels completely free from bleaches or dyes, which can cause the fibers to become brittle over time.

Size Matters

Besides quality fabric, what else makes some bath towels better than others? For many people, the size of the towel is an important factor. This can be especially true for those who are large, tall or both.

Oversized bath towels are often referred to as bath sheets. These towels have extra material and are designed to wrap completely around an adult body. You don't just dry off with an oversized bath towel - you wrap yourself in soft, luxurious warmth.

Standard bath towel sizes will vary between manufacturers. An oversized bath towel can measure 35 x 60 inches, 34 x 68 inches or something close to those sizes.

What About Thread Count?

Thread count is the number of horizontal and vertical threads in a one inch square of fabric. Thread count is commonly used when describing bedding such as sheets, however, manufacturers do not use thread count when describing bath towels. Instead, towels are described by weight in grams. A medium density towel is usually around 500 grams, while thicker, more plush towels are 700-850 grams.

Monogrammed and Embroidered Towels

Monogrammed and embroidered towels are often made to order and can be customized to suit your needs. Most monogrammed towels can have up to three letters in a variety of decorative font. Embroidered towels have some type of decorative design stitched into the towel. These types of towels are often used for guests or set out as a decorative display.

Where to Go for Advice and Reviews

The best bath towels will not always be the same for everyone. Individual opinions and needs will always be a factor. However, doing a little research can help you determine what type of towel might be best for you.

A great place to start your research is Buzzillions. Here you can find more information on the fabrics, sizes, brands and price ranges of almost 1400 different towels. Buzzillions offers advice on how to shop for towels and what to avoid. You can also read reviews on different types of bath towels. The reviewer's favorite pick for towels were Egyptian cotton and bamboo. The top brands include:

• Christy
• Avanti
• Jay Franco
• MSR
• Fieldcrest
• Aquis

Where to Buy

The following list of retailers includes those that sell bamboo, Egyptian cotton, organic cotton, oversized, monogrammed and embroidered bath towels:

• Home Treasure Cove
• Luxor Linens
• Rawganique
• Brylane Home
• Fine Linen and Bath

What Are the Best Bath Towels?

The best bath towels depend on your individual needs. If you have sensitive skin, bamboo or organic cotton may work best for you. If you are a large or tall person, you may want to go with oversized towels. If you like a thick, plush towel, a 700 gram Egyptian cotton towel might appeal to you the most. If you're looking for decorative towels to display in your guest bathroom, you may prefer monogrammed or embroidered towels.

Determine what you want in a bath towel and then figure out a price range that you're comfortable with. This will help you narrow down your options for finding the best bath towel for you.
