How to Get Soft Bed Sheets and Freshen Towels Since sleep is 30% of your life,
this article is very important. Twelve years ago my Mother in Law gave I asked many people and they could not even understand what I was getting at. I bought a set of the expensive 400 count cotton, and noticed they sure do need to be ironed and they were not it. Finally, in disgust, I found a very worn label on the old sets and they said "Springmaid No Iron" 50% Cotton 50% Poly Percale Sheet. Boy did I get the answer! Poly or not, they felt like soft pure cotton, and still are very soft after some 16 years! I am sure they were not 400 count, maybe 200. I did some web searches and I see Springmaid is a very old line. I do see a few companies with this No Iron Percale mix and I will make sure I invest in them as I need sheets. But in case you did not even know what you are missing, now you do! I would consider that a very true and long lasting wedding gift. I read where an expensive hotel spritzes their guest towels with peppermint, as you would use a room spray. This seems like a very cool idea and another way to get the feeling of royal treatment in your own home. |

three sets of bed sheets and they are the only sheets I have used since. At
the time she gave them to me, they were already four years old and I guess she
felt she was ready for new ones. Used or not, I always found them so soft
and comfortable, I could not understand why they were better than the sheets I had
back then. Most importantly, they never developed little balls even the
modern high count sheets seem to be prone too. Now I am ready to buy new
sets, and I began a hunt for what material she bought in the first place. I
felt any label on her sets would be long gone, so I did not bother looking.
