Let’s Stay In Bed: 7 Sustainable Bedding Brands
According to the NY Post, the average person spends 36 years in bed over the course of a lifetime. With nearly a third of your life spent between the sheets, high-quality bedding is essential.
Long gone are the days of scratchy cotton sheets, linens and washcloths made using harmful chemicals. Instead, we’re turning to sustainable, beautifully-designed bedding, linen and towels.
From innovative antimicrobial fabrics to soft organic cotton and cooling linen, these 7 sustainable brands are changing the game.
