What’s with the whole Bamboo Craze?

In the past year, I have been seeing a lot of parents going “gaga gougou” for Bamboo. From clothing to bedding, many prefer bamboo from other types of material.

It has gotten to a point, where I have been to family occasions and the topic of the day amongst parents (especially mothers) is about all the amazing qualities of bamboo. So, I thought to myself why not figure out what the hype is all about and do some research of my own.

It turns out that it offers an extreme organic experience like no other which is the main reason that parents have been trading in their baby cribs’ Plain Jane bedding for bamboo.

Simply put Bamboo material is:

    Super soft, silky & fully absorbent,
    Breathable & Hypoallergenic,
    Antistatic, antibacterial & antifungal,
    Powerfully insulating & is a natural UV protector.

Wedding Registries: A long-term investment


Here are a few statistics associated with the cost of weddings in Canada nowadays.
(Statistics from Weddingbells.ca)
·         Average expected cost of a wedding is $20,129 (up from $19,279 in 2009)
·         During the engagement period, couples buy: (Statistics from About.com)

           $4 billion in furniture
           $3 billion in house wares
           $400 million in tableware
           Average amount spent per guest on wedding gift: 85$- 150$

Over the past few years the wedding landscape has drastically changed.
Brides and grooms are getting married later in life (27 years old and 29 years old, respectively). As a result, more and more couples have amassed a wide array of furniture, house ware, and/or tableware before getting married.
Today couples who need items can simply register at their favorite department store and create their own personal “wish list”. Thus, gone are the days of receiving useless gifts and/ or the same gift twice.

A great idea for brides and grooms to be is to invest in items or products that are long-term assets. The new “it” thing is bamboo; bamboo cutting boards, bamboo sheets, bamboo furniture, etc.  For example, bamboo sheets have a lifespan far greater than cotton sheets (given the proper maintenance) and they carry hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties that can’t be beat. Bamboo sheets of 300 to 500 thread count offer quality that can challenge 1000 thread count cotton. Finally, bamboo can keep you cool on your hottest nights and can keep you warm even when your significant other can’t. What do you think?

Happy shopping!

How can a pregnant woman get some sleep around here?


In comparison to our male counterparts, we women go through a series of physical changes throughout our lives, especially when we are pregnant.
The main reason of this is because during pregnancy, a woman's metabolism speeds up and at the same time she has to carry the extra weight of her baby, and causes the body to create additional heat. This may lead the body to overheat, even during the night.

There is an innovative fabric formed from bamboo and is ideal as it has unique antiperspirant and anti-bacterial properties. This material absorbs moisture and is a great help in allowing pregnant women to stay cool.
Current products in the range include duvet covers, sheets in any standard sizes as well as blankets.
Also consider bamboo pillows the secret to sleeping better at night, the ideal companion for a woman that will conceive.

Bamboo, an ancient commodity or modern-day luxury?

As you may have noticed, bamboo has become more and more common in the household within the past decade or so due to its affordability, subtle elegance, and eco-friendliness. According to a survey done at the John Molson School of Business in Montreal, Canada, of a sample of 50 students – when mentioning the word bamboo before its entrance into the Western world, the words that immediately came to mind were: Asia, panda bears, tropical, wildlife, and huts. Now, when the same question was asked however in regards to their thoughts on bamboo in our present society, the words that immediately came to mind were: zen culture, decoration, curtains, and sturdiness. Some didn’t even know it was used in Western society at all and most answered the first question with more ease.

This study shows that bamboo is still young in our society and has much evolving to do in terms of the way it’s portrayed. What do you think of when you hear the word bamboo in the past/present? Making its way all the way from East Asia and other tropical regions of the world to your home, what was your first encounter with a bamboo product?

Bamboo! An antibacterial weapon!

Why call it a weapon? Bamboo is a special kind of plant which has exceptional natural antibacterial qualities. Bamboo bed sheets develop an amazing barrier which kills or slows down the growth of bacteria. Bamboo fibres are naturally anti-microbial and anti fungal. The reason for all this is because bamboo textiles contain an agent called “bamboo kunh”, and this agent prevents bacteria from cultivating. A study by the China Textile Industry Testing Center showed that after introducing bacteria to a sample of bamboo fabric, a 99.8% reduction in bacteria occurred over a 24 hour period.

Thousands of micro gaps in bamboo fibre work at lightning speed to absorb moisture and to dry it the moment it develops. When you sleep your body gets real hot and cotton sheets we sleep on hold heat, causing moisture to develop which brings on damp sheets that bring on bacteria and germs. Who wants to jump out of a shower feeling nice and clean and hop into a bed full of bacteria and germs? Certainly not me.

Bamboo bed sheets do not stick to the skin and are extremely cozy to sleep in. Its extraordinary natural breathability keeps you comfortable and dry for longer and will also help naturally eliminate odours. Nothing is more important than a good comfortable sleep and this can all be achieved with bamboo bed sheets. With bamboo sheets, you’ll be snug as a bug in a rug!

Bamboo Bed sheets are where it's at!

When you lay your head down at night, you hope for sweet dreams. But have you considered what kinds of materials you are resting your head upon? For example, have you thought about the materials used to make your pillow cases, sheets, and covers?

Think about updating your bedding with the eco-friendly product market as your source for new ideas. Eco-minded consumers, after all, find many reasons to buy natural items for their homes.

Bamboo Beds sheets are made with 100% rayon of bamboo fabric which is such a porous yarn, it has the ability, to absorb dye faster giving us greater depth of color as well as more vibrant colors, while using fewer chemicals. Bamboo is heavier than cotton and it drapes better than any fabrics we know of. It is buttery soft like cashmere, with a beautiful luster. Bamboo is one of the most sustainable of all natural fibers.

When bamboo is harvested none of the plant roots are disturbed. Bamboo is cut like grass and it regenerates itself extremely fast. Bamboo being self regenerating is grown without the use of herbicides or pesticides. There are no traces of these chemicals present in our bamboo fabrics.I recommend to check out the 500 TC Bamboo Bed Sheets and Bamboo Blankets from SweetDreamsBamboo.
