11 Reasons To Love Spring!
Spring is here and it's glorious! The season that starts to feel like life is about to start again. No more hibernating from the cold, no more dark commutes home from work, just a whisper of joy that this season will be bringing renewed motivation and feel good vibes for next 3 months. Not too hot, and perfect for morning walks and outdoor adventures.
1. We are actually happier! Soak up some sun to boost your brain's serotonin levels and feel all kinds of happy. After being stuck indoors for what feels like forever, it's about time to step outside and enjoy the rays! Exposure to morning sunlight can also help you sleep better at night, and is particularly important to get your babies sleeping as well. 10 minutes before 10am outside in the sunshine for your baby will actually help them sleep better at night, which is a major help for sleep deprived parents.

How to Care for your Cotton Bedding
There is so much information on the correct way to wash cotton sheets, and it can get very confusing! We have compiled a go-to tips page on how to wash, dry and store your beautiful Beddie cotton sheets.
Make your own Fabric Softener & Avoid Nasty, Harmful Toxins
Using fabric softeners each time you wash your sheets is a big no-no!.
Fabric softeners coat the fabrics fibres and reduce the fabrics air permeability, leaving behind a film that can start to feel heavy and slimy. Not to mention the harmful effects they can have on your family’s health.
Commercial in-wash fabric softeners and heat-activated dryer sheets can pack a powerful combination of chemicals that can harm your health, damage the environment and pollute the air, inside and outside your home.
Here’s why:

Vintage Whipped Cream Cake - Delicious and So Easy!
Here's a great cake for Mother's Day, or any other occasion that you'd like a delicious, comfort food treat for afternoon tea or dessert.
It also looks really pretty and would make the gorgeous hero of a vintage afternoon tea party.

A perfectly imperfect and beautiful get together with people you love. Great photo ops too!

The bedding market is flooded with options, which can be very confusing when you are trying to decide what is best for your bed. Our sateen is woven from cotton made from specially grown long fibre cotton plants.

You won’t need to patch this cotton, as it will not wear out easily like most cheaper cotton weaves. Wonderful for the kids beds! They can build forts and you can trust the sheets will not tear or get ‘bald’ patches. No...
The Forecast is COLOUR!
There is just something about colour that gives us the feels. Good, happy, vibing feels.
Be it a bunch of natures finest flowers, or a wall colour, or a vase, or a tshirt, it doesn't seem to matter what, but good colour will always make us smile.
And then there's the brave ones that take the extra step to inject colour fully into their homes, and you just can't believe how much it lifts a space. And you want to do it yourself, but you get nervous. Understandable I guess, but how much work is it really? And how easy is it to replace with the greige and beige again, if you do feel the need to ever go back. :)
Sleeping in Colour and Memories
There is no doubt that colours invoke quite substantial feelings. They can enhance our moods, make us feel good, or bring back some distant memory that makes us smile. The makings of Beddie's first collection was very in tune with these thoughts. Remembering patterns and colours that remind us of a long ago times in special places and with special people. We may have forgotten them entirely, until we see something that has the ability to transport us back to those places or those people. Our sense of smell can also make us remember certain times and places too, memories of which we had all but forgotten in our day to day, and then suddenly we remember love, or food, or laughter...
