When I worked for another designer who paid for all the things I needed to do my job I was paid $40/hr (which IMO was VERY high for the position) and my position was lead designer, with a degree and 10 years experience. I think it needs to be recognized that the numbers given in the post were for people running their own business. $75/hr (Or $95 or $125) for an employee is what is being charged to the client but is NOT what that employee is taking home.

Experience typically takes place in the summer between the Spring and Fall semesters and is uniquely defined to align with students’ interests and career goals. MDes students may apply for GSI positions, when they are available, for undergraduate design courses offered at The Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation. These teaching opportunities are optional and MDes students are expected to be able to balance GSI responsibilities with their own educational commitments with little difficulty.

I doubt many people do make enough money to clear that hurdle. We use Harvest for logging hours and expenses, and Google Sheets or Airtable for a lot of project management and orders. Harvest was the most common time tracking and invoicing software reported by our small sample, with Ivy following, and Fohlio for purchasing. Spreadsheet-nerds will be happy to know those are still a popular-player, too.

“There used to be a line about Los Angeles that everyone was either a screenwriter or an actor,” says Scotti Sitz, owner of L.A. “I think in some respects, you could start to make the case that everyone here is now an interior designer.” Indeed, the city’s design scene has boomed, with new shops and showrooms sprouting up every month. What’s most exciting about this design renaissance, though, is the range of visions and styles represented around the city—due in part, perhaps, to the constant flow of new residents from around the country and world. Design scene is equally embracing of the primitive and the cutting-edge, the refined with the unrefined,” says Adam Blackman of Blackman Cruz, on Highland Avenue. Live the life you always dreamed of with a lucrative career or creative hobby in the design industry.

It’s a tricky tightrope to balance on, as you don’t want to be SO expensive you aren’t able to secure work, but not so low that you aren’t able to make a living. At the lower-end of the scale, you may actually lose work. Potential clients might wonder why you’re “so cheap” and assume you’re not a professional or lack experience. As with anything, there’s something to be said for not taking the cheapest option. The answers to this question were a bit more varied.

High School Programs

UCSF is also targeting a 30% local hiring target for construction workers for the Parnassus project and pledged to create 1,000 union jobs, establish new job training programs and expand existing programs. The first job training cohort started April 22 in collaboration with CityBuild. In our experience, strong portfolios often opt to describe a limited selection of projects in depth, rather than account for a large breadth of projects superficially. We suggest highlighting between 3–5 of your most compelling exemplars of creative work. The most important role of a portfolio is to clearly communicate your skills, experience, and perspective. Your portfolio must include your name and contact information and be submitted as a stand-alone PDF formatted document.

I’m not a designer, but I agree that people seem to underestimate or undervalue the kind of professional expertise needed to do this job. Love reading all this- and yes, you should’ve been charging more!! It’s the gaps in time and availability you pay for to have the support you need when you need it. So, now let’s turn to our anonymous special guests and get some REAL answers.

FLOSSTUBE TUTORIAL TIME – FABRIC FRAMING

Many, many people commenting are missing the difference between billed hourly rate and take home pay which are two different things entirely . Luann Niagara just had a great podcast with a guest, first name Kim, about if one is charging enough as a freelancer. Using real numbers they worked backwards with the goal of paying oneself $75,000. For the sake of easy math they assumed working full time every week, 12 mo/yr (ie no vacation) one needs to charge $172/hr.

I have several friends who own their own residential design businesses. Each has their own model of how she runs her business. In spite of the fact that it is very expensive to hire a full-service designer, designers are not getting rich off their fees!

My husband and I do pretty well (make around $150k a year combined, live in the suburbs of a medium sized city) and I cannot imagine ever spending $16k when there are great resources online – this blog and others, pinterest, Modsy, etc. Also, some math… if the “average” rate is $182/hr, this works out to $378,560 per year! I know this is not what a Designer’s take home pay would be, after all expenses are subtracted, but even if it was less than half, let’s say $150k, that still sounds really high to me. I work in tech the tech industry, and only senior level engineers are making that. I’m a scientist in academia and much of my time is paid off external grants.

I believe I paid $1300 for 10 hours of her time. It was up to me how I used her time, which I liked. She was a great sounding board and voice of reason, and scouted particular items, letting me know where she found them and then I purchased them directly myself. Maria and Anilop, indeed, freelance is a gamble at times and there are so many waves to ride that salaried employees don’t have to be concerned about. And when economies crash, design and other housing-based industries are quick to suffer.

But I promise that if you just give this post a chance you might find something interesting/healthy. Pretend for the duration of this post that you’re thinking about hiring an interior designer for a space in your home. I’m going to cover what you could expect in terms of cost and time when working with a designer. But wait, are you an interior designer yourself, or thinking about becoming one?

I’m a designer with a master’s in architecture. I deal with people’s homes and their family dynamics. I have to build trust and act as a therapist all while managing the construction, knowing codes, getting their home to function again (not just pretty), and making it beautiful. Thank you Emily and the team for talking about this touchy subject, I love this transparency you continuosly share here! After all people, we live in capitalism, that’s all I have to say.

Inside The Design Process – How Much It Really Costs To Work With A Designer

But as I say, society really does not value what designers do to pay them what I would consider to be a fair living. I agree, though- most people just can’t or won’t afford full-service design. Thanks for sharing all this great information about pricing and jobs. I myself am self made and working on projects. I’d love to see if you all have any mentors you can hire or suggest anyone to do so. It’s always nice to have some one to be able to bounce ideas off of or questions.

Croft House

This is a common practice among designers, who are often able to secure furniture and accessories at a discounted “trade” price. A designer will purchase the pieces for their client at a discount, then charge a commission on the piece (usually a percentage of the discounted cost) to help account for all the little amounts of time that aren’t trackable. Often a client will still end up paying less than if they had bought the piece retail themselves. My clients are not in the 1%, they’re firmly middle-class (I know that’s subjective these days). They work with me because they want someone to handle the headaches and hassles of remodeling their kitchens, bathrooms, master suites, etc. and they want them to be beautiful.

Lots of Italy, on Many Collectible Plates

Celia I’m glad you shared your experience with various designers. There is a huge spectrum of skill and ability in the design industry, just as there is in any industry. Before I started my education and new career in design, my first career was in the banking/finance industry.

Your dreams matter to us, and we’re excited to be a part of your journey towards creating the life you’ve been dreaming of. The startup’s founders also want to create tools to monitor and block software such as cryptocurrency miners and ransomware. “We don’t need to use new technology to make this work. What we need is to actually take the tools available and put them in the right place,” Sosonkin said. Be it community gardens, village stores or repair cafés, there are many ways of putting your hands to use and working together to make our world a better place. That’s why this year’s Social Design Award is looking for projects and actions that promote the common good.

LET LOVE GROW

Your numbers assume the designer is billing for all of their time which is never the case. How do they think these clients find them- magic fairies?! You have to spend money to make money and a larger part of that is marketing costs (social media, networking, blogging all take tons of TIME!). You’re right, Talia, it’s as important for designers to weed out the wrong client as it for clients to weed out designers that aren’t a fit. I hired a designer through Homepolish a few years ago.

My institution pays about 60% on top of my salary for my direct benefits and payroll taxes. The percentage is higher (up to 110%) for lower paid employees since some costs are fixed (like health insurance). They charge an “overhead” rate they have negotiated with the federal government of an additional 50% on top of both salary and indirect costs which pays for office space, computing, the library, the salaries for IT support, etc. All in, my charged rate is about 2.5 times my pre-tax rate.

But since her firm could have done the work I knew that she would know all about the construction part. Some designers don’t have degrees in Interior Design but are more about the “decoration” of a space. I think you could reach out to either – some designers are great and experienced at spacial layouts and construction details – it really just depends on the person. My advice would be to ask around and get personal recommendations or research online until you find someone whose taste (based on portfolio pictures) and project experience matches your needs.

I can’t thank these pros enough for their generous, business-savvy insight. The following are the questions posed to our seven experts and their responses. Quick note, these pros are all in major US cities (Portland, Vegas, Los Angeles and New York), so if you’re in Duncan, Oklahoma, or something, you’ll probably need to call around to see if there’s truth in these numbers (or check down in the comments).

Karly, thank you for your perspective and reminding us that housekeeping is back-breaking work. I would add, it’s one job in which you do not typically get a 401k contribution or pension. People who work self-employed in service industries not only have to make enough to pay their bills now, but eventually to save enough to retire when their bodies give out and they can’t do the work anymore.

Forgot to mention that my business expenses are basically travel, any material samples, my drafting program and printing. How do the online design companies fit into this model, like Havenly, etc.? What aren’t we getting when working with someone like that – besides in-person meetings, of course. It will also foster collaboration between scientists, health care professionals, staff and learners across the clinical, research and education disciplines, and enable UCSF and its health system to continue to attract visionary leaders and talented learners to UCSF. To address the rising need for specialty care, the hospital will increase UCSF Health’s current capacity by 37% to 682 beds, while adding 22 new operating rooms, for a total of 40 overall, and 31 new emergency care beds, increasing capacity by 71% to 70 beds.

This is a fairly standard (and conservative) approach since the feds audit the expenses every few years. That means the salary rate for a billable rate of $150/hr is about ~$60/hr. I interviewed with a few of these companies, and had offers. They pay extremely low hourly rates to their designers (considering their qualifications and skills and the expenses these people still have to cover themselves). All applicants are required to submit a portfolio that demonstrates their creative and technical proficiency. Portfolios are expected to include both images and supporting text and should convey the context from which the project arose and the lens through which to understand and critique the work.

Some designers account for the different levels of experience in their team by using a “blended” rate, while others charge different hourly rates for different team members. I don’t think anyone here is knocking designers nor what they charge, and it’s not elitist to say “I work in tech/science/public health”. We’re all here faithfully reading our favorite design blog so we all must value what art/great design brings to our world. True, many of us cannot afford it, but that doesn’t mean we don’t value it.

When we were making it, all of us were in similar situation to what the family was in. We didn’t know what it was going to be like, we didn’t know how to do, we didn’t know each other, we were learning to bond … in the mud, in the snow. I always felt like the actual experience we were having helped to make the pilot feel genuine,” says Grassle, 82. They stood in lines ― for more than five hours at times ― for a chance to meet their favorites and get selfies. The life of a 19th-century Minnesota farming family, seen through the eyes of the middle daughter Laura.

This chance to take a visit into the past provides a way for modern-day audiences to see this influential show and trace its impact on dramatic television series today. As you watch, it’s also worth remembering that just beneath the wholesome veneer is the drama that was happening backstage. Take a look and see if you can identify where any of it leaks through to the screen. The episode sees Todd Bridges of future Diff’rent Strokes fame guest star as Solomon Henry, an 11-year-old who is the first member of the family not born into slavery.

She said the was surprised by "the kindness and stories from fans." Sidney Greenbush, 53, had not been back to Big Sky Ranch since she left the show. “It feels like when you go to your childhood home and you haven’t lived there for a long time and there’s a certain familiarity that comes back,” she says. Gilbert launched Modern Prairie, a lifestyle site, with Nicole Haase, in 2022. The site features classes ranging from coping with grief to flower arranging as well as products made by women and from women-owned businesses. As part of the 50th anniversary, there are dozens of events across the country, including Arngrim's one woman show, "Confessions of a Prairie Bitch."

Landon also formed some close relationships with the cast and crew members — some might say a little too close. A married man who had children with his wife Lynn Noe, Landon began having an affair with a crew member named Cindy Clerico. Eventually, the scandal would cause the end of Landon’s marriage, and he would go on to marry Clerico in 1983. Ellin turned this devotion into a weekly podcast Wild Nights on the Prairie with Ray Ellin.

The behind-the-scenes drama might have clouded some people’s image of the wholesome show, but it didn’t stop Little House on the Prairie from having cultural influence far past its conclusion. In fact, it was even part of the inspiration for the hit ’90s teen drama Dawson’s Creek. A devastating tornado hits Walnut Grove, destroying the Ingalls’ crops and farm. Animals are killed, and the house and barn are severely damaged.

They keep the auction of the Ingalls’ farm a secret and bid on everything themselves for pennies. Many asked Charlotte Stewart to pose in the replica of the school house where she had played teacher, Miss Beadle. Stewart, 83, brought her tiny 15-year-old dog, who was a hit among fans. She also sold lemon verbena perfume, like she was known for wearing on the show. "I had a whole spiritual journey for maybe 20 years, I’ve worked in finance on Wall Street, lived in Manhattan for a long time," Gilbert, 56, says. Most people wanted to see Melissa Gilbert, who played Laura; Karen Grassle who played Ma/Caroline Ingalls; or Alison Arngrim who played Nellie Oleson.

Charles is despondent and decides to move his family back to their old house in Wisconsin. This is technically a two-part episode where there is a drought and Almanzo Wilder (Dean Butler) loses his crop and the land. Laura suggests she take a teaching position to help them earn money for a new farm, but Almanzo objects and postpones the wedding. They continue to argue, and eventually, Laura breaks their engagement.

Set in the 19th century American Midwest, Little House on the Prairie first aired in 1974, and it was a long-running hit that enjoyed nine seasons before wrapping up in 1983. The show is remembered today for its wholesomeness and family-friendly lessons that were wrapped into the plot of each episode. Loosely based on the life of author Laura Ingalls Wilder, the show follows the simple farm life of a family making their way through the world in the quaint setting of Plum Creek. With the myriad of streaming services available, the question of what to watch can become secondary to the question of where to watch it. This trip down memory lane has allowed fans to relive some of their favorite television moments as well as share their appreciation for these series with a younger generation. The beloved television series starring Melissa Gilbert and Michael Landon originally aired on NBC from 1974 to 1982.

The show features guests and conversations regarding life lessons learned from the iconic TV show, which lasted nine seasons. Celebrating its 50th anniversary, we asked this “prairie head” to run down his definitive 10 episodes. Gilbert played Laura for nine seasons, growing up from the little girl in braids to a married mom. She has starred in TV movies and series, appeared on "Dancing with the Stars," wrote two memoirs, served as the president of the Screen Actors Guild, and acts in plays and musicals. Ingalls family, and finally gets the opportunity to go to school. The reaction of bigoted Mrs. Oleson (Katherine MacGregor) is a treat when Charles tells her that Solomon is his son from a previous marriage….Every few minutes your heart is pulled in another direction.

Ellin believes it’s also where you get first examples of how kind, tough, and hard-working the family was. In this episode, a lawyer visits to tell Charles that he is the heir to the massive estate of his late Uncle Ned, who owned the Ingalls Carriage Company, and a large house in St Louis. Charles and Caroline get carried away and run up a large debt at Oleson’s Mercantile. Ketty Lester, 89, signed some of her CDs for fans and sang at a worship service at the reunion. “You don’t know how much it means for me to see you,” Ketty says. Linwood Boomer, 68, created a very popular show based on his life, "Malcolm in the Middle." He is the founder and board chair of Healing California, a nonprofit that provides free medical, dental and vision care.

Some cast members have appeared at smaller tributes, but this was the first time most of them were together. When Harriet Oleson’s niece Kate (Anne Archer, who played Michael Douglas’ wife in Fatal Attraction) comes to visit Walnut Grove, she and the much older Doc Baker fall in love fast. It’s the Ingalls family origin story and shows the immediate challenges they face as soon as they settle on the banks of Plum Creek, just outside Walnut Grove.

(Boy, do we feel old! 🤯) It followed the life of the charming Ingalls family— husband Charles, his wife Caroline, and their three daughters—after they migrated westward to settle on a farm in Minnesota in the 1800s. It turns out that things behind the scenes were not as squeaky clean as the image portrayed in front of the cameras. Cast and crew members have come forward with stories about Mike Landon — who portrayed patriarch Charles Ingalls and served as director for many episodes. Landon was apparently very controlling and “could be mean at times,” according to Melissa Sue Anderson, who played the oldest Ingalls daughter, Mary. Whether Landon’s creative rigidness was a problem or not is a matter up for interpretation. It certainly helped steer the show to popularity and provided a huge platform for the actors who served as stars of the show.

He explains to Charles that, because of Uncle Ned’s eccentric lifestyle, his whole estate amounted to nothing – just a box containing worthless Confederate money. To try and collect her debt, Mrs. Oleson immediately forecloses on the Ingalls farm. But the friends in town come up with a plan to help the Ingalls keep their property.

He donated all money fans paid for autographs and photos to the charity. These were not casual fans, but those with custom shirts ("In a world of Nellies, be a Laura") and wore bonnets and calico dresses. They carried books, posters, vintage lunch boxes and aprons to get autographed. Gilbert, who appeared in nearly every episode of the series, credited the show with shaping her into the person she is today. Now, a Little House on the Prairie reboot is officially in the works—but it could be a while before we actually get to see it.

In the United States, it is currently more popular than Shetland but less popular than Portlandia.

Ellin always found it interesting when the main characters leave the Grove for a trip to the big city where they are fish-out-of-water and do things like ride elevators. This episode sees Charles elected to represent the farmers of Hero Township at a Grange convention in Milwaukee. At the same time, Caroline gets an invitation to the 25th high school reunion in the same city, so they travel there together. They toured a replica of the Ingalls' house, the Oleson's Mercantile, and the one-room school house.

Charles shows up at one of Danforth’s church services and reveals the truth. They find that some of their old classmates are very successful, but wealth doesn’t necessarily equal happiness or a good marriage. And both Caroline and Charles are propositioned by former married classmates. While the cast celebrated the 50th reunion in Simi Valley in March, there are several more events planned around the country including in Connecticut, Kansas, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee. Arngrim, 62, has written a best-selling book, "Confessions of a Prairie Bitch" (which is a must-read for "Little House" fans) and has turned the book into a one-woman show.

Landon also formed some close relationships with the cast and crew members — some might say a little too close. A married man who had children with his wife Lynn Noe, Landon began having an affair with a crew member named Cindy Clerico. Eventually, the scandal would cause the end of Landon’s marriage, and he would go on to marry Clerico in 1983. Ellin turned this devotion into a weekly podcast Wild Nights on the Prairie with Ray Ellin.

Until then, you can refresh your memories about the show by watching the adventures of the Ingalls family play out all over again on TV and online. When Kate accompanies him on a visit to deliver a baby to a woman whose own birth he had handled, their age difference is magnified for both of them. Eventually, Charles, while on a business trip to Sleepy Eye, discovers the truth about Danforth’s method. He performs a hustle from town to town, with the same three people in the audience pretending to need saving.

Solomon tells his mother he wants to learn to read and write and go to school, which his mother (Maidie Norman) and brother (David Downing) explain isn’t realistic. Solomon runs away and ends up hiding on the back of the wagon being ridden by Charles Ingalls (Michael Landon) and Dr.Hiram Baker (Kevin Hagen) to Walnut Grove. Comedian Ray Ellin remembers watching Little House on the Prairie from an early age and being captivated by the Ingalls family adventures in Walnut Grove. His love of the American western drama only grew stronger as a teenager into adulthood when the series landed in syndication. Landon was certainly central to the show’s success both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. He was known for being proud of his physique and frequently went shirtless on the set.

The family endures a fire, attacks by native Americans, and disease. "#LittleHouseOnThePrairie has a new home starting tomorrow!" reads the caption of the post. As of January 25, Little House on the Prairie will be airing every weekday on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. The network announced the exciting news on Instagram, giving longtime fans a collective freak-out. One show that is seeing a resurgence because of streaming is Little House on the Prairie. Bonnie Bartlett, 94, might have the longest career of any cast member.

The House Bunny is definitely one of Anna Faris' most iconic movie roles, and no doubt helped her get various projects in the decade since, including CBS' acclaimed sitcom Mom. The actress had to get in super shape for the role, as Shelley was almost never seen covering her midriff or cleavage throughout the movie's 97 minute runtime. 10 years later, and it looks like Anna Faris is still not over the costuming, hair, and locations used in The House Bunny.

Jack’s Garage: F1 Miami

The movie was filmed at the height of the popular reality TV show The Girls Next Door, which followed late Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and his three girlfriends. So The House Bunny naturally had to use the real location, and even included Hugh and the trio of reality personalities for brief roles. The Playboy Mansion has seen plenty of scantily clad ladies over the decades, so Faris thought it was ridiculous that was attempting to compete alongside Playmates. Although she did look delightfully ridiculous playing the title character in The House Bunny.

During her time with the Zetas, Shelley meets and becomes attracted to an intellectual, altruistic guy named Oliver, who works at a retirement home. She uses seductive tactics that work with other guys, but they fail because Oliver actually wants to get to know Shelley rather than just hook up with her. To impress Oliver on their second date, Shelley starts attending classes and reading books, and tones down her appearance. The second date is also a disaster because she wears glasses that are not meant for her, and brings along notecards to help her sound smart.

And while they did emerge from the laundry looking wrinkly, they felt even softer and silkier than they did before. These bamboo sheets had an immediate cooling sensation, and we never felt overheated while sleeping on them. After we washed them, they were extremely soft and free of wrinkles—a huge advantage over other bamboo sheet sets. We slept in these sheets for six months straight because we couldn’t get enough of their super-soft, hotel-quality feel. With regular washing every two weeks we noticed a few loose threads, but considering we used them nightly, this level of wear is minimal. When we first unboxed them, they didn’t seem that sturdy, but they held up well in the wash, and most stains came out with ease.

Cosy House 1500 Series Sheets

We were impressed to find that they stayed securely on the bed, no matter how much we tossed and turned. Some Cosy House sheet sets come in all standard mattress sizes, while others are more limited for sizing options. This collection comes in twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, and split king sizes. A flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and a pillowcase are included with twin and twin XL sets, while larger sizes include two pillowcases.

Hypoallergenic & Stays Fresh

It is considered more eco-friendly than viscose because 99% of the water and solvent are reused and recycled during the treatment process. Like viscose and rayon, bamboo lyocell is soft, moisture-wicking, and cooling. But it may not be as soft and sturdy as viscose and rayon, and it’s often more expensive.

Bamboo Bay Bamboo Sheet Set

Meanwhile, the microfiber that makes up the majority of the bedding is a completely synthetic material derived from petroleum. When you wash it, tiny scraps break off and wind up in the environment, contributing to the growing ecological problem of microplastic pollution. In short, if you're in the market for sustainable sheets, there are many better options. Bamboo sheets have excellent pilling resistance, thanks to the natural strength of their plant-based fibers. Sadly, the same can't be said about microfiber, which has extremely fine threads that make it super-soft but snag and break easily.

Bamboo sheets tend to be soft, lightweight, and breathable, which sometimes comes at the cost of durability. But Bamboo Bay’s Bamboo Sheets don’t force you to choose between the two. The primary concerns that customers report with these sheets related to fit and durability. Even though the sheets stretch, some customers describe problems with fit.

Risk Free Purchase!

They kept us comfortable without feeling stifling, so we think this pick is perfect for any season. Aside from offering great value, these sheets feel soft, sturdy, and cool to the touch. We found the fabric to be thin and breathable without feeling cheap, keeping us cool throughout the night. They have held up well after six months of use, with no discoloration, tears, or changes in texture. We were also impressed to find that they maintained their cool feel throughout the testing period, despite being made with polyester.

The material is also breathable, lightweight, and thermo-regulating, so this set may be Cosy House’s best option for hot sleepers. Because 300-thread-count cotton is pricier than polyester, these sheets aren’t as cheap as other bamboo-blend options. They’re still a good value though, and we also like that they come in a bunch of sizes, including hard-to-find options like twin XL and split king.

Any product appearing alongside that seal has been vetted by our team—put through tests and graded on its performance to earn a spot on our list. Although we buy most of the products we test, sometimes we do get samples from companies if purchasing a product ourselves isn't an option. All products go through the same rigorous process, whether they are purchased or sent by the company. Bamboo sheets are extremely effective at drawing heat away from the body and wicking away moisture. Many of the buyers who had issues with the sheets pilling or ripping said they were able to return them for a full refund with minimal hassle. This is less likely if you wash your sheets in cold water and tumble dry on a gentle cycle.

The 9 Best Bamboo Sheet Sets of 2024, Tested and Reviewed

The 1500 Series and the 1800 Series offer the largest variety, but the Luxury Bamboo Sheets is also available in 10 different designs. Shoppers who prefer a patterned fabric may favor the 1800 Series, which has three distinct patterns available in multiple hues. House of Cindy is dedicated to artisan, handmade home decor that honors diverse international roots. We’re passionate about showcasing the finest craftsmanship from around the world and the remarkable spike in beauty and quality when our living space is made with care. Check out more products that have earned the Real Simple Selects, from humidifiers to cordless vacuums. We first assessed the quality of each sheet by visually inspecting it for loose or uneven threads, imperfections in the dye or pattern, and any other flaws.

Purchases of less than $50 will incur a flat-rate shipping charge of $6.95. Expedited shipping (two to three business days) and priority shipping (one to two business days) are also available for an additional fee within the continental United States. Customers who prefer keeping extra pillowcases on hand can purchase additional pillowcase sets for the 1500 Series and Luxury Bamboo sets. This Florida-based company sells a wide range of home goods, including rugs, towels, throws, blankets, mattress protectors, comforters, pillows, and sheets. Lauren is a Certified Sleep Science Coach with extensive experience researching and testing a wide variety of sleep products. Threaded to perfection, Bamboo Viscose offers an ultra-tight knit that doesn’t compromise on softness and durability.

Snapped fibers tend to bunch up, forming the tiny lumps of fabric we call "pills." It's also one of the trickiest to pin down, because different people may have very different texture preferences. The fitted sheet has a 16-inch-deep pocket, meaning it should fit mattresses up to 16 inches thick. There are also elastic straps at the corners to help anchor the sheet in place. Cosy House avoids excessive retail markups to keep their prices low and making well-made sheets and option even for customers who are on a budget. An extra bonus is the company’s lifetime warranty that provides you with a new sheet set if you find a defect in the sheets at any time.

However, these sheets may be ideal for sleepers who prefer a slightly cozier feel. This article was written by Melanie Fincher and updated by Jamie Fischer. To find the best bamboo sheets, we tested 38 sets of sheets in our lab and evaluated them on quality, texture, breathability, durability, and value. For expert tips on how to buy bamboo sheets, we tapped Jeffrey Kambak, CEO of Yunus Textile Mills Limited, and Stephen Light, CEO and co-owner of Nolah Technologies (a bedding manufacturer). Independent third-party tests ensure that textiles, such as bedding, meet specific standards for product safety. Because most bamboo sheets undergo a chemical treatment process, there can be a residual of these harmful substances on the textile's surface.

The 1500 and 1800 series provide a more plush and cozy feel because of their 100% microfiber composition. This softer feel can increase heat retention, which can make them a better fit for cooler climates, winter months, or for people who don’t tend to sleep hot. Cosy House Collections provides a series of sheet sets that achieve impressive levels of performance for their extremely competitive price point. When purchased through Cosy House, sheet sets are eligible for a 30-day return policy. The customer is responsible for return shipping and must include their name, order number, and list of items to be returned. He 1800 Series is similar in price to the 1500 Series, but its sizing options are more limited.

After six months of use, they have proven to be durable, cooling, and more resistant to odors compared to other sheet sets. Given their silky feel and durability, we think they’re on offer at an amazing price. And while we’re disappointed that they come in just two sizes, we appreciate that they’re available in a range of pretty shades. Most customers agree that the Cosy House sheet sets feel soft to the touch. This isn't the silky, shimmery softness you might expect if you've tried other bamboo sheets, though. As we noted, the bulk of the fabric is microfiber, which has a more plush, cottony feel.

The search for the softest, coolest, most durable bedding led us to factories across the globe, where we tested hundreds of different fabrics and finishes. As a rule of thumb, subtract two inches from the pocket depth of your fitted sheet to determine if it will fit your mattress comfortably. For example, a pocket depth of 16 inches will comfortably fit a mattress that's 14 inches tall or less. During testing, we found that Cozy Earth's bamboo sheet set would be best for extra-thick mattresses because it has an impressive 20-inch pocket. Cosy House’s Luxury Bamboo Bed Sheets are crafted of a blend of microfiber and rayon derived from bamboo. Their thread count is around 1000, and they have a soft, smooth, and somewhat stretchy feel.

Most bamboo sheets start as pulp, which is then dissolved in a chemical solution and forced through a machine to create filaments (or regenerated cellulose) that is then spun into a fabric. The result is a soft, lightweight, and breathable fabric that feels like silk. Next, we tested each sheet set by making a bed, using the fitted sheet, flat sheet, and pillowcases, and taking note of the texture as we worked. We then put a droplet of water on the fabric, analyzing whether the water beaded or dispersed into the material. The quicker the water disperses, the better moisture management the material has.

Full dimensions for each component of the Cosy House sheet sets is listed below. Crafted from pure bamboo viscose, our soft 100% Bamboo Bed Sheets have a cool, crisp feel that transforms your bedroom into an oasis. Their breathable and hypoallergenic properties help keep you feel clean, fresh, and comfortable throughout the night. Includes thick 360-degree elastic and corner straps to ensure your sheets remain snug and in place. Twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, and split king sizes are available. Each set comes with a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and one to two pillowcases.

They quickly became our favorite sheets for warmer months and even replaced our favorite fleece sheets in colder seasons. We also like that the sheets come in several colors, and they can even be monogrammed for a thoughtful gift that will give the recipient years of use. Cosy House sheets come with a 90-day warranty that protects against defects. Customers can also purchase an additional two-year extended warranty for a small fee. This policy covers accidental damage, including stains, rips, and pilling. Orders of $50 or more qualify for free standard shipping, which typically takes five to seven business days.

Mattress Comparisons

Compare that to the prices charged by one of their top competitors, Cozy Earth (yes, people confuse the names a lot). Their sheets are fully bamboo rayon, so the price difference isn’t as striking as it seems at first glance, but the savings with Cosy House are still decent. The Premium Bamboo sheets provide a compelling mix of the smoothness and breathability of bamboo with the softness of microfiber. The Luxury Bamboo sheets have this same mix with a slightly more breathable fabric thanks to its higher percentage of bamboo rayon. The Everyday Sheets’ premium blend promises a comfortable, restful sleep experience. There’s also lyocell made from bamboo, which is produced by dissolving raw bamboo in a solvent.

Senior Product Editor

While all three Cosy House sheet sets share similar materials, there are slight variations that impact their feel, performance, and potential pros and cons. Depending on your personal preferences and sleep style, one of these options may be more comfortable than the others. Threaded to perfection, our ultra-soft bamboo viscose blend is temperature regulating and hypoallergenic, keeping you clean and comfortable throughout the night. Bamboo lyocell uses a more sustainable treatment process than viscose and rayon, but it's more expensive and harder to come by. And when not properly sourced, bamboo-derived textiles can contribute to deforestation.

Brooklyn Bedding Deep Pocket Bamboo Cotton Sheets

In our testing, the sheets had a cooling sensation that lasted through the night. Thanks to the smooth sateen weave and deep pockets, we found the fitted sheet very easy to slip on and off the mattress, providing a hassle-free bed-making process. These breathable sheets lost some of their silkiness after our initial wash test, which made them feel closer to all-cotton sheets.

However, cotton tends to be more affordable than bamboo, unless you're splurging on premium cottons such as Egyptian or Supima. Our top pick is the Bampure Bamboo Bed Sheet Set because it proved to be soft, cooling, wrinkle-resistant, and durable in our testing—not to mention a great value. We found these sheets to be medium in weight, feeling less crisp than pure cotton and less silky than pure bamboo. The bamboo and cotton blend felt smooth on our skin, and became even softer after washing. Where these sheets really stood out, though, was in their notable temperature-regulating properties.

Trial, Warranty, and Shipping Policies

Bamboo bed sheets are best known for their natural temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties. They also have a silky-smooth feel and lightweight construction, making them perfect for hot sleepers. The sheets are sold in a set including a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and one or two pillowcases.

The 9 Best Bamboo Sheet Sets of 2024, Tested and Reviewed

This review will discuss all three Cosy House sheet sets in terms of construction, pricing, sizing, colors, and care instructions. Once testing was complete, we reviewed the price of each sheet set and scored its overall value, considering its performance, materials, and price. For long-term insights, we took the sheets home and evaluated their real-world performance after three and six months of use, updating this article accordingly. The coffee, foundation, and oil stains were all still visible after washing, so we wouldn’t recommend these for mess-prone households. We noticed no lint or loose fibers after the abrasion test, and the texture remained the same.

Explore Sleep Foundation

We also used a sanding block to abrade the material, observing any tears and collecting any fibers that came off of the fabric. We tested 38 bamboo sheets in our lab and at home, evaluating each sheet set before and after washing. Cozy Earth’s internet-famous bed sheets gave an impressive performance during our testing.

During this inspection, we used a tape measure to measure the dimensions of each sheet and compared them to the specifications provided by the manufacturer. It's possible that the company has changed their manufacturing process or switched suppliers in the last few years, with the durability suffering as a result. Whatever the reason, we can't confidently recommend the Cosy House Collection for longevity.

In general, the Cosy House Collection sheet sets achieve a high level of performance, especially for their price point. The Luxury Bamboo sheet score the highest across all categories, but all of the sheet sets offer excellent comfort and ease in cleaning. Pocket depth refers to the maximum mattress height a fitted sheet can accommodate.

We'd advise waiting for a sale, because you can often get them heavily discounted. The 1500 and 1800 Series have the same composition but a distinct look. These sheets are made with 100% microfiber for a plush and inviting feel. The sticker prices for Cosy House sheet sets are above-average for microfiber collections.

Our sheets are moisture-wicking and hypoallergenic, keeping your sheets cleaner for longer! Ward off common non-living allergens, enjoy better skin, and wake up feeling refreshed every morning. We aim to help you discover the designer within, as you channel your love for comfortable, inviting handmade home decor and global styles.

Shoppers can select between twin, full, queen, king, and California king sizes. The twin size includes two pillowcases and larger size sets come with four pillowcases. "In reality, you can't call them bamboo sheets—people are actually getting fined by the FTC," says Jeffrey Kambak, CEO of Yunus Textile Mills Limited. "You have to either use 'rayon from bamboo' or 'viscose from bamboo' in the labeling." For simplicity's sake, we're going to use the term "bamboo sheets" throughout this article.
