Frequently Asked Questions...
Does anyone know where I can find a soft & fluffy white faux fur king-sized duvet / comforter with 1-2" shag?
Hey,
Thanks for reading my question. I'm looking for an ultra soft duvet or coverlet or comforter made from faux fur (really shaggy and fluffy) & snow white in color. It seemed like something Target might be selling, but unfortunately I can't find anything even remarkably close ANYWHERE.
Do you have a comforter / blanket like this or know someone who does? Could you find out where it came from? Have you seen one around?
They make lots of interesting throws out there (faux fur and chenille, etc..), but in the King Size blanket / coverlet arena, everything is just SO conservatitve (simple cotton or nylon with your choice of more expensive or less expensive fill), otherwise it's a poorly made specialty item.
Thanks for your time
Answer:
Faux fur is tough to find in bedding because it is difficult to launder and since it's 100% polyester, it doesn't breathe well and can make you warm in an unpleasant, sweaty way. It doesn't make a good duvet because it weighs the down fibers down, and the comforter won't be light and fluffy.
Your best bet is to use a simple white cotton duvet and then buy a few yards of white faux fur and have it seamed up by a tailor to use as a throw. Then cover your bed for decoration.
I did a search for you, and i found a few faux fur duvets and throws, but all animal print. Sorry.

Faux silk curtains for modern interior design
When renovating your decor it is a well known fact that silk curtains offer a grand and elegant approach to your surroundings. Usually silk curtains have been recognised as a mark of extravagance and prosperity. In modern times silk is still favourably considered in the interior design industry, infact so much so that particular embroidered real silk curtains cost above a few thousand pounds.
In view of its beauty and charge of natural silk, curtain makers have emerged with a fabric having polyester named as 'faux silk'. Currently in truth there is no legitimate stand in for pure silk, as the finer charm for it cannot be replaced by machinery, but there is nothing that has been seen close to it than the new faux silk curtains we have encountered.
Faux silk curtains provide the identical opulence similar to of raw silk, the similar deep colours and surprisingly even the same touch and feel. We all see the one predicament with soft silk is protection. You would be required to dry clean them and this can be pricey considering how hulking real silk curtains can be with decorative and blackout material to protect the real silk from sun wear and tear. This is not a problem with ready made silk curtains as they can be washed in domestic washing machines and then apparently air dried. Real silk also creases very fast and ironing them is not an choice unless carried out efficiently . This truly is not a trouble with faux silk curtains, which can in fact be ironed on the reverse with a usual iron on lower temperature.
Its these usual but important changes that make ready made silk curtains a real world option to think when shopping.
As you might envision, faux silk is much more reasonably priced. Curtain designers all around the world are at the moment making ready made silk curtains in various patterns. You can now have ring top faux silk curtains, embroidered faux silk curtains and also dupion faux silk curtains. Dupion is a faux silk fabric with a pronounced slub look. With dupion curtains the design focus is more on surface, while the glimmer is a lot less. This tends to make them ideal for those who don't prefer the shiny effect of silk.
Another sort of faux silk textile is taffeta. Taffeta curtains have a more pronounced shimmer, quite opposed to dupion curtains. Even the material is a lot softer for the taffeta curtains, and there is practically no texture. You could compare taffeta curtains to satin fabric.
Recently due to the fall in requirement, you may acquire taffeta being more regularly introduced in blend of stuff such organza voile to produce gorgeousnewly curtains.
In relation to voiles, I however forgot to point out faux silk voiles. These are factually outstanding and beautiful. Can you imagine a voile filling the area with sunshine while giving off minor hints of glimmer. Words cannot really illustrate the image, you ought to view these faux silk voiles. Very similar to organza voile however they are slightly more solid and certainly reflect more rays into the space. Momentarily we only have a choice of eyelet faux silk voiles in red, black, white and cream colours.
Organza voile is also designed with a silk theme. Actually not as rich as faux silk voiles, so matching for conditions where more sunlight is required during the day.
Ring top faux silk curtains may possiblycould very well be considered as the most fashionable at present with approximately 30% of the ready made curtain market share alone. Obtainable in a range of stunning colours such as black, green, pink and even beautiful reds.
At present due to design achievements you can acquire embroidered and even designer silk. One of the new patterns is a pintuck cream and brown faux silk curtain with pencil pleat heading. This is a quite new design of two colours of silk on one curtain.
Faux silk voiles and organza voile are mounting in demand as people are getting to know their attractivness. As cleared early on a lot of organza voile are now available with taffeta for a newer appearance.
Large ready made silk curtains are accessible in types of shades and chic now, and because of the reduced rates, there is no predictable decrease in popularity for this curtain type.
