As the days get darker and temperatures plummet, it will come as no surprise to many that searches for cosy interiors have surged - whether it’s electric blankets, heating pads or higher tog duvets.
One way that we are looking to up the homely factor of our space is through our bedding where teddy bear materials have reigned supreme. So popular is the fluffy fabric that in the last month, Google has seen a 400 per cent rise in interest.
The appeal is enduring: not only will the thermal fabric keep you snug through the winter months, but wrapped up in the luxurious-feeling duvet, you may just find that you’ll want to turn down your central heating to prevent getting too toasty in the night (the material is not the most breathable on the market). That’s money right back in your pocket, especially helpful during the current energy crisis.
While these designs may not be taking home any interior awards any time soon, they are low-maintenance, require no ironing and come in an array of colourways, from cloud white to vibrant hues of orange and pink. There’s patterns too as well as ground sheets, throws or mattress toppers if you want to maximise your dozing comfort.
