Great For The Home Office – Function Under Wraps
While the style of your daybed itself will determine the finished look, the cover you choose will have a lot of impact on the overall look of the room.
You can choose a soft and fluffy look which can be achieved with one of the many daybed bedding ensembles. Or for a more sedate and toned down look, the fitted daybed cover will fit the bill.
A Place To Work
A home office has the basic purpose of being a place to work … not a fun playful place.
And while having a bed in your office is a great way to double up on space usage, sometimes you might not really want the “bed” look.
Available in many different colors, fitted daybed covers are generally unpretentious and almost plain in their appearance. They serve one purpose … to cover the daybed.
While there are matching shams and pillow covers to provide a soft place to lean your back, the frilly and flowery patterns or styles are few and far between.
Made To Fit
The practical and functional style of day bed covers simply covers the bed in an almost box-like fashion, giving a made-to-fit appearance. Generally with a machine-quilted look, the cover fits down nicely over the mattress, going all the way to the floor.
No Dust Bunnies Here!
Unlike the daybed ensembles which include a bedskirt, the daybed cover is just one piece which will neatly hide any items you want to store under the bed. Or if you chose the daybed with trundle option, the trundle bed will be completely hidden with the daybed cover. And since the cover goes all the way to the floor, less dust will find its way under there, making cleaning a little easier.
Hollywood Daybed Sets
Fitted daybed covers are also sometimes referred to as Hollywood bed covers. The difference is in the pillow shams. The Hollywood set includes shams for pillow wedges while the fitted daybed covers include shams for regular sleeping pillows.
If you want the more frilly and pretty look, by all means go with the daybed ensembles as you will have numerous choices and can create virtually any type of “look” you want. But if you’re wanting the more toned down, non-bed, any-man-can-handle-this kind of look, go with the fitted daybed covers.
