How Often Should You Change Your Bedding? Simple Tips and Easy Hacks

When it comes to creating a cozy and clean bedroom, few things matter as much as fresh bedding. Whether it’s your bed sheets, pillowcases, comforters, or cushion covers—keeping them clean not only makes your room look good but also helps you sleep better and stay healthy. So, how often should you actually change your bedding? Let’s break it down with some easy bedding care tips and practical hacks from the team at Vista Furnishing.

Changing your bedding isn’t just about getting that crisp, fresh feeling (though that’s always a bonus). It’s essential for:

  • Keeping your skin happy and healthy
  • Minimizing dust mites and allergens
  • Avoiding musty smells
  • Maintaining good sleep hygiene

Whether you’re using a bed-in-a-box bedding set, soft cushion covers, or chic upholstery fabric from Vista, knowing when to refresh them can make your bedroom healthier and more inviting.

Here’s a simple, no-fuss guide to help you know when to swap out each item:

Since these touch your skin and hair every day, washing them once a week is the sweet spot to keep oils, dirt, and bacteria away.

Quick Tip: Choose breathable, easy-to-wash fabrics from Vista’s bedding range for ultimate comfort and convenience.

Duvet covers might protect your comforter, but they still gather dust and sweat. Give them a wash every two to four weeks to keep things fresh.

Good to Know: Vista’s bedding sets are built to handle frequent washes while staying soft and beautiful.

If you regularly use blankets or decorative throws, a wash every couple of months keeps them fresh and cozy.

Especially if you like lounging around or taking naps on your sofa, it’s a good idea to wash cushion and sofa covers regularly.

Pro Tip: Vista’s upholstery fabrics are stylish, long-lasting, and super easy to clean.

Don’t forget your mattress protector! It helps catch spills and dust, so make sure to clean it every month or two.


Keeping your bedding fresh doesn’t have to be a hassle. Here are some easy hacks to make your life simpler:

  • Rotate Bedding Sets: Keep at least two or three bedding sets and swap them weekly. It makes laundry day easier and gives your room a fresh look.
  • Pick the Right Fabric: Fabrics like cotton or soft blends from Vista’s collection are breathable, easy to wash, and feel great all year round.
  • Freshen Up in Between Washes: Use light, natural fabric sprays to keep your bedding smelling lovely between washes.
  • Give Bedding Some Air: Sunlight is a natural cleanser! Air out your comforters and cushions every now and then to keep them feeling fresh.
  • Dry Bedding Properly: Make sure bedding is fully dry before using or storing it—moisture can lead to musty smells and mildew.

Fresh, clean bedding is one of life’s little luxuries. At Vista, we make it easy to create beautiful, comfortable spaces with our wide range of premium curtain fabrics, blackout materials, upholstery fabrics, and soft, stylish bedding sets.
