What Is A Duvet – Duvet Is French For Sack

What is a duvet? Duvet is from a French word meaning sack. Use them in place of a bedspread and it will cover a comforter either of down or synthetic and protect it from the dust and dirt that normally collects while using it. Comforters also need to be protected from the oils that naturally come from our body as we sleep. Duvets can be made from any fabric imaginable. You could have a flannel duvet cover for a cozy look in winter, a linen duvet that speaks of classic elegance, a chenille duvet cover that is shabby chic or a faux fur mink duvet that is fun.

A Duvet – Make Your Own

Make a duvet from flat sheets sewn together with a space left open to slip in the comforters. You kids might like to get into the act and have a theme for their bed. How about a Spongebob or Barbie duvet? Sheets of all kinds are available and can easily be turned into a quick bedroom makeover by sewing them together. Have fun thinking of how a duvet can change the look of the bedroom quickly and easily.
