What to Buy With a Bed in a Bag

The perfect gift idea: bed in a bag.

Written by: Bedding Style

Summary: Here are some extra pieces that any bed in a bag set can use.

A bed in a bag makes for an excellent starter gift, especially for newlyweds and college kids away from home for the first time. They are typically more affordable than buying a set piece by piece, require far less thought on design and matching, and they usually have most of what you need to get started. Still, bagged sets don’t contain everything. You might want to consider some of these extras if you plan to gift someone a bedding set.

Extra Warmth

Duvet cover sets can fill in some of the warmth that a standard bedding set would leave out of the picture. A duvet is a simple slip you put over your comforter that adds a bit of warmth to the bed, and can even change the color or style of the bedroom. If you buy only one set, be sure to pick up a duvet cover so you can change things up when the temperature drops.

Pillow Cases

Sets often come with everything you need for one set of pillows, but if you are someone with multiple pillows then you need to do some more shopping. Vera Wang bedding is excellent for filling in these missing pieces. The quality of fabric is higher than the average set, and the costs are affordable for pieces that will last for many years to come.

You might also consider other pieces, like throw pillows or body pillows, which aren’t normally covered by a set in a bag.
