A bedspread, old-fashioned? Not at Bonsoirs
A bedspread is an optional element when linen is mentioned, but in grand homes, it is making a remarkable comeback. The reason? It is the accessory that adds a touch of comfort and decor to your bed. With this simple piece of fabric, you bring a new dimension to the bedroom.
How to choose your bedspread?
To ensure an elegant aesthetic, it is advisable to avoid certain mistakes. In particular, you must start by being vigilant about the size. It is not uncommon to choose a bedspread that is too small, which results in an unaesthetic appearance.
Therefore, ensure your bedspread is sufficiently large for the size of your bed. To be sure you don't go wrong, follow this guide. The bedspread must be larger in length and width. It should slightly drape over the edge of the mattress, as the purpose of the bedspread is to cover the entire bed and allow for a hem around the pillows. For the sides, the same logic applies: the bedspread must cover all the bed linen and therefore should extend beyond it. At Bonsoirs, we make it easy for you, as all our bedspreads are much larger than standard mattress sizes.
All you have to do is choose the material and color you prefer. The different bedspread materials for an optimal look Get ready to love the interplay of textures for your bedspread! As this piece is an accessory, it's an opportunity to have a little fun with different styles. You can choose a bedspread in the same fabric as your bed linen set. This choice is entirely legitimate, especially if you are familiar with this material and it is a favorite of yours. But you can also decide to have fun with your bedspread to give a more aesthetic look to your sleeping area. For example, we offer a honeycomb bedspread, entirely made of cotton. Its specific weave gives this bedspread a light and soft appearance. The Jacquard look evokes the best of retro charm.

Why choose a bedspread?
A bedspread serves three purposes in the bedroom. It is very useful for protecting your bed linen. If you have pets, for example, it is highly recommended to use a bedspread to avoid damaging your bed linen. Secondly, if you appreciate aesthetics, the bedspread complements your home linen, adding a beautiful complementarity of texture and color. It's up to you to make the choice that best suits your tastes.
Finally, the bedspread is also recommended simply for wrapping yourself in. This accessory has the advantage of being large and is much appreciated for a cozy break before snuggling under your duvet.

The bedspread is designed to cover and dress the entire bed. The quilted bedspread stands out for its textured finish and more cocooning look. Smaller and more versatile, the throw is usually draped at the foot of the bed or used on a sofa.
A bedspread can serve as an extra lightweight layer, especially in between seasons. Its main purpose, however, is still to protect and dress the bed: on cold nights, it does not necessarily replace a duvet suited to the room temperature.
Always check the care label, as care depends on the fabric and filling. For a Bonsoirs bedspread in cotton, a wash at 30 °C is generally best, 40 °C maximum, with a gentle spin around 800 rpm and air drying. Quilted or velvet styles may require a specific cycle.
Center the bedspread so it hangs evenly on both sides. You can spread it across the entire surface, tuck it under the pillows, or fold it in half at the foot of the bed for a more relaxed look. The key is to keep the lines clean and the drape balanced.
For mild weather, choose a lightweight, breathable style, such as cotton or honeycomb. In winter, a quilted bedspread or a velvet one brings a cozier feel. A reversible design makes it easy to change the mood with the seasons.
You can echo a color already present in the bedding set to create a harmonious look, or choose a contrasting shade to give the bed more structure. If the duvet cover features a bold pattern, a solid bedspread usually creates a better balance. Conversely, a simple bedding set leaves more room to play with textures.
