INTERIOR INSPIRATION BY KATE KINGSTON Kate Kingston, Managing Director of Kingston Shaw, an award winning interior design company with offices on the Wirral, London and Dubai, shares with us the latest trends for creating the perfect home. AND SO TO BED AGAIN AND AGAIN ! Here are some of my finds! 3. Thewhitecompany.com 1. Allbamboo.com The beautiful Savoy collection ranges from £20-£90. There is something wonderful about Bamboo sheets they are non-allergenic, they wash beautifully and they are eco friendly and they are ever so soft to the touch. Pillowcases start from £16.00. 4. Thelinencompany.co.uk Dear Reader I hope you and yours are still well? As I write from isolation, I write with a little secret that I wanted to share with you. Are you ready? So since I have been spending so much time at home and in fact in my bedroom, I have upgraded my linens, a small thing that has made a big difference and so I thought I would share my best finds in hope that it might make your days a little more luxurious ! Firstly, Frette linen is my favourite, but I will admit it seemed extravagant to spend £300 on a flat sheet so I set out to find out if I could find a brand that delivered the feel and touch of super high count cotton, with colours that melt the purists heart on a budget and frankly I was surprised at the amount of options and availability both for linen and towels. Secondly an inviting bedding set may not only induce sweet dreams as you tuck yourself in after a long day: it could also provide a much-needed splash of colour, riot of print or array of sensual textures to an otherwise nondescript bedroom. A new duvet cover or bedspread requires far less of the commitment required when painting the walls or purchasing furniture - we like to think of it as like buying a scarf to brighten up your day, rather than investing in a whole new wardrobe. 48 wirrallife.com The classic collection is their best seller and offers you a high thread count and cool sophistication, not the cheapest at £100 for a flat sheet but they last and wash beautifully. 2. Secretlinenstore.com The range from here is fabulous and starts from £22 for a king flat sheet. Most of their linen is 600 thread count so you can expect a luxurious feel and value for money. 5. Marksandspencer.com Good old M&S, they have ranges from 400 count to over 1000 count and prices start from as little as £22.00, colours are abundant and if you are so inclined use botanicals to brighten up your day.
