Summer is here, and with it comes that irresistible urge to escape, to trade the everyday for something extraordinary. But what if your most coveted destination was right within your own four walls? The beauty of a summer staycation lies in its accessibility – no airport queues, no packing dilemmas, just pure, unadulterated bliss. And at the heart of any truly restorative escape? An incredible bed.

At Everlasting, we believe your bedroom should be a sanctuary, a canvas for your dreams, and a haven of  a summer staycation. This summer, we're inviting you to transform your sleeping space into a vacation-inspired retreat, where every night feels like checking into a five-star resort, and every morning a gentle awakening in paradise. Forget the mundane; it’s time to infuse your bedding with the vibrant spirit of your favorite getaways, all while embracing the latest trends in luxury and sustainability.

Close your eyes and let the gentle scent of wild herbs and warm stone wash over you.

Imagine ancient olive groves stretching towards a serene, cerulean sea, the soothing rhythm of cicadas, and the exquisite feeling of sun-baked earth beneath your bare feet. This isn't just a destination; it's a profound sense of peace, a slower pace of life that feels like an eternal embrace. This is the essence of a Mediterranean escape, and it’s a feeling you can effortlessly weave into the very fabric of your bedroom sanctuary this summer.

• To truly capture this sun-drenched dream, look no further than linen – that glorious, breathable fabric celebrated not only for its beautifully relaxed drape but also for its remarkable ability to soften and become more inviting with every passing moment, much like a cherished memory.

Can you feel it? The humid kiss of the air, the distant murmur of waves, and the vibrant symphony of exotic birdsong echoing through a canopy of emerald green. Your mind drifts to remote, sun-drenched islands, where every breath is a renewal and every view a masterpiece of nature’s artistry. This is the seductive allure of a tropical oasis, and it's a feeling you can absolutely bring home, transforming your bedroom into a breathtaking escape where lushness reigns supreme.

To truly cultivate this verdant paradise, embrace the power of bold prints and lively colors that mimic nature's most flamboyant creations. 

In Europe's sun-kissed towns, everyday items often carry beauty in their simplicity. Think hand-thrown pottery, embroidered linens, and woven baskets. Your space can reflect that easy elegance with subtle, tactile accents.

Create that breezy feeling by layering:

• Gauzy canopy drapes over your bed.

• Ceramic vases filled with wildflowers or glass carafes

• Lightweight embroidered throws or fringed linen details.

The Linen Fringe Throw brings just enough detail to elevate your bedding without overwhelming the relaxed look. 

One of the most defining elements of a European summer is how it embraces natural materials and relaxed comfort. Linen, with its breathable texture and lived-in charm, is a staple in Mediterranean interiors.

Try this:

• Light gauze or linen blankets and throws for texture.

• A linen duvet cover in soft neutrals or washed blues.

• Pillows in sandy beige, soft white, or terracotta.

Our French Linen Duvet Cover captures this effortlessly. It's breathable, beautiful and perfect for warm nights under the stars.

Beyond color and texture, European summer is a sensory experience. Think of the scent of citrus groves in Sicily, fresh herbs in Provence, or salty air by the Spanish Coast. Pair those calming moments with Mediterranean inspired scents and of course, layers of linen.

To transform your sleep space:

• Light candles in fig, lavender, or lemon verbena.

• Add a playlist or French Cafe music or guitar strums.

• Keep linen sprays or essential oils on hand for a bedding refresh and setting the mood.

Even small details like a linen-covered bench, linen curtains swaying in the breeze, or your favorite robe draped nearby can elevate the experience. Together, these thoughtful layers create a bedroom that doesn't just look like a getaway, but feels like one too.
