So this is my first time to experience sleeping with linen.

And I am happy to report that sleeping on 100% linen is an experience that no one person can fully convey to another. It's one of those things you simply must try for yourself in order to get the full, luxurious, now-I-understand-the-meaning-of-life experience. I mean..am I finally an adult??!! You guys!!!! I will not ever go back!

I always tended to shy away from purchasing linen bedding for two main reasons: price and wrinkles. Seriously…let’s be real here.

Regarding price, gosh, where to start? Linen comes from the flax plant, and cultivation of these crops is extremely expensive; it's more difficult to spin, and there are many labor-intensive stages to the production process. It's an investment, plain and simple. (More on that later). Regarding wrinkles, yes, it's a fact. But that's part of its charming personality. A quick fold out of the dryer (or dry them in the sun on a clothes line if you are lucky enough to have a yard) and into the linen closet (or right back on the bed!) and they're good to go. Rough Linen recommends taking them out of the dryer while they are still very slightly damp so wrinkles do not set! If you do iron them, rest assured they iron easily, and in fact their lustrous shine returns even more beautifully. And all we have is time right now so hey…..you might just find ironing sheets very therapeutic.

Here are a few reasons why you should give linen a chance.

1) Linen is highly absorbent. Due to its molecular structure, linen can can absorb up to 20% of its weight in moisture before ever feeling damp! It allows more airflow and is therefore less likely to cling to the skin. Water (perspiration) is absorbed and wicked away from the skin, then quickly evaporates. No clammy sheets here! ( as a woman in early menopause..I cannot even begin to tell you how important this feature is for me)

2) Linen is temperature-regulating. Whether a hot and muggy summer night or biting cold winter morning, linen's got you covered. It regulates the skin-air heat exchange like no other fabric.

3) Linen gets softer with each wash. Because of it's unique properties, linen gets softer, shinier, and just more all-around scrumptious with each wash.

4) It's hypo-allergenic. Due to its remarkable magical properties, linen sheets are a wonderful option for those with skin disorders or sensitivities, and creates a lovely, healthy microclimate for the skin.

5) A brilliant environmental choice. Virtually all parts of the flax plant are used in the harvesting process, leaving no footprint. Also, it's a renewable resource, needing very little irrigation when grown, and is minimally processed. And being made from a 100% natural fibers, it's also biodegradable.

6) It's got serious muscles! Linen is substantially stronger than cotton. Its tough-guy durability translates into linen sheets lasting (and not just lasting, but lasting in good condition) for many years. This is precisely why you'll often hear linen bedding spoken of in terms of an investment. If properly cared for, it can literally last decades. So your investment is well worth it my dears!

7) Away, critters! Linen is resistant to bacteria, fungus, dust mites, and is naturally insect repellent. (thank goodness)

8) It's lint free and dirt repellent..

9) It's anti-static. (YES)

10) It's soooooo darn comfortable.

I have their Queen Linen Bed Makeover. This complete set of bedding essentials has everything you need to dress your bed in beautiful, pure linen from head to foot. Featuring their signature heavyweight Orkney linen and Smooth linen sheeting, the bundle includes:

1 Orkney Linen Duvet Cover
1 Orkney Linen Summer Cover
2 Orkney Linen Shams
1 Smooth Flat Sheet
2 Smooth Linen Simple Pillowcases

For extra support, consider adding a pair of Orkney Linen Bolster Covers (read about them here).

Also available in King and Cal-King

Individually cut and crafted in California.

You can pick between buttons and zippers too and I chose zippers! I think zippers suit our modern space more but I do think the buttons are soooo classic and timeless.

The Summer Cover is my most favorite thing right now-like if I can only have three items when I am dropped off onto a deserted island, this thing is coming with! The innovative Orkney Summer Cover is a single layer blanket which floats linen's characteristic cool, crisp texture over your body, perfect for hot summer nights. In cooler weather, use it as a layering piece for extra warmth. Three inch hems and mitered corners look neat and structured whether the bed is made or not, and bed-making couldn't be simpler, just a flick of your wrist and you're done. Elemental luxury for everyday seriously!!

What do you all think of the color?! Everything was blue in here and really made the room look quite dark. The dusk and white combo just brighten everything up and make it look so warm and inviting!

I love how the dusk color looks so different in different light too! You can see that in my dining room too as I have a Rough Linen linen tablecloth! Check that out here.

Adore my little lavender sachet too! I have it in my linen closet where I keep my towels.

All of Rough Linen’s fabrics are 100% linen, made from European-grown flax, yet each one has a different weight and texture, making it uniquely suited for specific uses. Check out this useful information here so you can see their swatches to learn more. FREE SWATCH CARD
