7 summer blankets and sheets that will keep you cool but comfy

There are two things we love in this world: our beds, sleeping in our beds. But rising temperatures in the summer time can make both of those things super uncomfortable. Who can have sweet dreams when they’re face is stuck to their pillow, or they’re sweating in their jersey t-shirt sheets? Just thinking about it is enough make the idea of going to bed sound awful. It doesn’t have to be this way, though, if you invest in summer blankets and sheets for your humble abode.
You just have to know what the best summer fabrics are for bedtime.
Just because you’re swapping out your winter bedding doesn’t mean you won’t be able to tuck yourself into a super comfy bed every night. A lot of these blankets and sheets are just as cozy as your soft, heavy duty winter sets, so you don’t miss out on snuggling.
