Registering for sheets comes with a myriad of options that may seem a little overwhelming if you aren’t sure exactly what you (and your partner) are looking for. Do you want crisp, classic white cotton sheets or rumpled, relaxed linen in a moody hue? Do you tend to overheat and need sheets that will keep you cool with moisture-wicking technology? Or, do you live in a colder climate? If so, cozy flannel sheets are a must-have for the winter months.
“The best sheet set is one that you look forward to getting into at the end of the day,” says Ariel Kaye, the founder and CEO of Parachute. “Overall, when choosing bedding, I recommend looking for sheets that feature all-natural fibers.” All-natural fibers like linen and cotton tend to be more durable and long-lasting.

Furthermore, sheets come in so many price ranges— even if you’re setting up a registry and not paying for them yourself, cost is an important thing to consider. Your sheets are the foundation of all your bedding— both aesthetically and functionally. The perfect set will help you get a great night’s sleep—and make your bedroom into a sanctuary.

What to look for in sheet sets
If you’re looking for a full upgrade of your bed, a bundle is one of the best options out there. Cotton is a classic for every type of bed and type of sleeper. If you’re a hot sleeper, you can’t go wrong with a cooling synthetic or moisture-wicking linen material, and if tend to get cold (or live in a cooler climate), flannel is the best choice out there.
