i love new flannel sheets. i love how soft and fresh they feel. no pilling yet. no thin spots. no drool patches. i was thrilled a few weeks ago when i went to buy some new flannel sheets (we had none that were appropriate for guests and my parents were coming for a visit) and found them on sale for $15-$20 a set! no matter what size i wanted! i gleefully bought two sets–one will be a set dedicated to the guest room only (and will hopefully stay nice longer that way) and one is to replace the worst of our current flannel sheets. here’s my question for you, readers–have any of you ever invested in really high end flannel sheets (like these<\/a>? or these<\/a>?) are they worth the extra cost? do they last longer? i like to keep my eco footprint small whenever i can, and i realize that replacing my flannel sheets every year or two is probably not the most green option. (although i will likely find some creative way to “recycle” my worn out flannel sheets. knowing me.) if i knew for sure that spending more money up front for a set of high end flannel sheets would deliver a set of long-lasting sheets that wouldn’t get pilly right away, then i’d be tempted to buy some. but if they deteriorate at the same rate as the set for $20, i’ll stick with the cheapies. anyone have pricey flannel in their home?<\/p>\n p.s. only one entry so far for yesterday’s contest!\u00c2\u00a0 you could still be a winner!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" i love new flannel sheets. i love how soft and fresh they feel. no pilling yet. no thin spots. no drool patches. i was thrilled a few weeks ago when i went to buy some new flannel sheets (we had … Continue reading
