One of the most common problems in bathrooms is lack of storage space. Buying a bathroom vanity at your local building supply store may be the answer, but for more challenging storage solutions, you’ll want to contact a Bridgeport Metro Area bedding and bath manufacturer or retailer that specializes in custom storage options and unique bathroom furniture and accessories.

Is it time to wake up your master bedroom with some new bed linens? Since that very first white sale in Philadelphia’s John Wanamaker and Co. department store in 1878, January has always been a good month to buy bed linens. Those looking for hand-crafted custom bedding and draperies can find a Bridgeport Metro Area company that makes and sells quality bed products. Many bed and bath retail outlets sell a smaller selection of exclusive brands.

What to ask before purchasing bedding or towels from a retailer or ordering from a bed and bath manufacturer:

• Are there any special washing instructions?
  
• Does the duvet cover have a knife edge or a flange? A flange is a piece of extra fabric on pillow shams and duvet covers.
  
• Do the measurements include the flange? In most cases, measurements are based on the inner dimensions plus the 3- to 4-inch flange.
  
• Does the company offer ELS (extra long staple) Egyptian cotton? ELS refers to the fiber length. ELS cotton is the softest and best quality.
  
• What is the GSM (grams per square meter) for each item? GSM refers to the product’s density. A towel with a 600 to 900 GSM is a dense, highly absorbent towel.
