As much as I like to search out bargains to stretch my decorating dollars, sometimes I feel the urge to splurge. In my opinion, one of the best home items for paying a little extra is bedding. There's nothing quite like luxury bedding to make you fee like a million bucks while you drift off to dreamland.
- Frette They're pretty much the first name to come to mind when you think luxury bedding. That could be because they have over 150 years of experience in the bedding industry.
- Deborah Sharpe Linens This LA-based shop stocks a nice array of luxury bedding - from sheet sets to cashmere throws.
- Sferra Another stalwart of the luxury bedding industry, Sferra was started in 1891 by Gennaro Sferra. It has since changed hands but they're still known for their fine linens.
- Coyuchi This company, based in Point Reyes Station, California, focuses on natural and organic materials in their bedding.
- Garnet Hill In addition to bedding basics, Garnet Hill stocks Frette, Signoria Firenze and other luxury brands.
- Libeco Home Linen bedding may seem like a new trend but it's been around for years. This Belgian company has been producing fine linen bedding for over 150 years.
- Westin Home Collection If you've ever stayed in a Westin hotel, you know how nice their bedding is. You can also get the same feeling in your own bedroom.
- Anichini This 26-year-old company specializes in luxury textiles - and also offers a Made in America collection of pillows.
- The Company Store While on the low end of high end, this La Crosse, Wisconsin, based company stocks a nice range of fine linens.
- Au Lit Fine Linens This Canadian company starts with 100% cotton woven in Europe and crafts their bedding at their own factory in Canada.

Charles P Rogers for linen duvet covers. I purchased one in eggplant and its the most comfortable, soft and beautiful bed cover that I have ever seen.
My fave bedding is from Bed in Vancouver, Canada. They use shirt cotton so, like your favourite button-down Oxford, it just gets softer with each wash.
Peacock Alley is a good choice, too. They frequently have good sales on their website.
The percale sheets I've bought from them have held up better than the Frette ones I bought around the same time, many years ago.
My dream linens are from Matteo Home -- can't forget them!

I've gotten some wonderful stuff from Overstock.com.
I'm going to second Matteo. In fact, we just came home with a beautiful dark grey (black?)
duvet cover.

So so beautiful. It changed our room.
It took me 4 trips to ABC Home to actually pull the trigger and buy it. I'll be going back for more bedding... when I save up : )
Love Peacock Alley sheets and shams!! Garnet Hill's sheets are wonderful too. We have their Eileen Fisher sheets on our bed and their in house brand on our son's bed. Company Store used to be a great resource for sheets, but I've found the quality lacking in the past 5-10 years. Sheets/duvet covers have not held up well.
matteo, matteo, matteo, ahhhhh!
If you you're not already on the Gilt.com and HomeMint.com mailing lists, sign up! They've had matteo sales fairly often -- that's how I've been able to afford the Matteo bedding I have.
Matteo. Get in my bed.
What? No Peacock Alley? You really should check them out and include them in your list! They're my favorite luxury bedding label!
Good advice! Signing up for Gilt and HomeMint now. Love Matteo!
And then there's Goodwill.
The end result is it's helping a disabled person get job training.
I sleep better knowing my money is going to help out others.
Also try checking out our collection of luxury bedding at www.alchemy-design-studio.com, we love chic designs and comfy bedding so that's all we stock at Alchemy/Design!

Love all of these places! Another luxury bedding store worth checking out is Tajmahome. They have some really nice duvet covers and sheets that I've been lusting after!
