Ask Sheila: Cozy Bed
Sheila Bridges: Designer Living : Episode FLSBD-310

Viewers ask show host and interior designer Sheila Bridges for help with their toughest home design issues.

Q: How do I make my bed look as cozy as it feels?
A: Start with the basics: a box spring, a fitted sheet and a flat sheet. Always buy 100 percent cotton sheets with at least a 200-thread count. Then find a beautiful bedspread — nothing is as cozy as a down comforter and duvet. Finally, add a touch of luxury with tossed pillows or a warm throw.
