I’m getting the impression that some of us launder the used sheets and put them right back on the bed. No linen closet full of choices in assorted colors, mix and match sets?
The more colors I have, the better I like it. It’s Alexander Julian watercolor sheets for me. They have the watercolor design in common, with a wide variety of colors that I use in combinations of all kinds. Sometimes I want to see the full set in uniform color, and sometimes I mix to the max: two sheets, four pillows, all different.
Naturally season, mood, and occasion affect my choices. I do indeed use red and green at Christmastime, and in the heat of summer it’s the full complement of shades of blue (sapphire, sky blue, and aqua) and silver or cloudy off-white. Right now I’m going to be putting on some light spring colors before I go the full-blast purple and yellow.
