Darling Bella Notte..you've got our hearts!
It's no secret how much we adore our bedding.. and we think it's about time for us to share why! We first fell in love with Bella Notte linens about five years ago when we stumbled upon the company and purchased our first piece - a pair of Olivia lace pillow cases. Little did we know that those pillow cases would just be the start to our prized collection of lace, velvet, silk, cotton and linen bedding.
Now, when it comes to bedding you want to make sure you check off a few boxes before you 'jump' into bed with it! First, you want to make sure that your bedding isn't pre-treated with any harsh chemicals. Believe it or not, bedding is often exposed to chemicals that try to keep your sheets from wrinkling and losing color. And as you may already know, we go absolutely nuts for all things 'non-toxic' in our home. So we were thrilled to find out that this isn't something you have to worry about with Bella Notte - they receive their fabrics unfinished and prepared for the dyeing stage. The dye used is low impact and is hand mixed locally in California. The end result is luxurious, preshrunk fabrics in a wide range of color palettes that can elevate any room.
Another important aspect of livable and beautiful bedding is that it is WASHABLE! And believe it or not, Bella Notte just gets more stunning with age.. and dare we say it, with every wash! This is what truly makes Bella Notte linens an heirloom piece. Not only can they be enjoyed for years to come but they make the most meaningful item to pass down to those you love!
Finally, we think it's important that your bedding makes a statement.. regardless of what that may mean to you. And keep an open mind here, if your bedding ticks off the first few boxes we talked about (..mainly washable) then even if you have little ones or a furry pet around the house there's no reason you can't treat yourself to luxurious bedding. Fortunately for us, Bella Notte captures our entire soul with just one look. It is romantic, yet classic and the perfect amount of playfully feminine. And that's exactly the type of statement we'd like to make! Between the ruffles and the lace, you simply won't know where to look first - it is ALL just so beautiful!
Now, we often get asked by our clients if their bedding should all be one color or should it all match. And our answer is simple, no and no! Most of our pieces compliment each other and although, you will often see that they are in the same color palette that is where their similarities start and end. Bella Notte's selection allows you to play around with layers, textures, shades.. and we suggest you play, play, play!
So whether your heart skips a beat every time you make your bed with your favorite linens or you've never given your bed a second thought after you've stumbled out of it in the morning.. you've got to trust us when we say it's a great place to start making an impact in your bedroom. Bedrooms whether larger or small are often always fully occupied by a large bed (it is the largest piece of furniture that fits!) So before you start changing side tables and swapping out the hanging art in your bedroom - start by investing in a pair of cushions to add to your room.. we just have a feeling that once you start dressing up your bed, you'll have a hard time stopping! And we've got a tip for that too.. make sure you give yourself some extra time in the morning to spend with your Bella Notte linens!
