At the end of a long day, there is nothing better than slipping between a set of smooth, cool sheets. We all want to be wrapped in soft, luxurious sheets and a cozy comforter as we drift off to sleep. But more often than not, we’re putting up with old worn sheets we’ve had for years. Well, I recently updated my bedding game with the ultra-soft Better Homes and Gardens 400 Thread Count Hygro Cotton Bed Sheet Set ($55 for queen size, Walmart), and I’m never using those old sheets again.
What I love most about these sheets is that they’re made with a temperature-regulating Hygrocotton. If you’re like me, I’d never heard of Hydrocotton before I had these sheets. Basically, Hygrocotton is made with a special spinning process that creates a hollow core yarn that allows air in to wick moisture away, that helps keep you cooler while you sleep. This technology also creates a buttery soft texture, and even though I’ve washed these sheets several times, they continue to feel soft and luxurious.

Now let’s talk about the most annoying part of changing the sheets-getting them on the bed! You don’t have to worry about playing tug of war with the fitted sheet because it is stitched with Flexi-Fit technology that makes it easier to get the sheet tucked securely into the corners. And, bonus, it stays put all night long.
This sheet set comes with a fitted sheet, top sheet, and two pillowcases, and it’s available in three sizes: full, queen, and king. The full and queen sets come with standard pillowcases and the king set comes with extra long king pillowcases. There are 11 solid colors to choose from and four patterned options. I went with a light blue shade for everyday use in my bedroom, but I’m thinking about getting the medallion ivory pattern for a cottagey feel in our guest room.
With so many options, there’s sure to be a color or pattern that fits your style and personality. More important than the color and pattern, will be the way these sheets feel against your skin when you wind down for the evening. Get ready for a great night’s sleep.
