Summary: Learn how to buy bedding for young men in high school or college.
Teen bedding is one of the hardest gifts to buy. Teens want to spend time in their bedrooms, but seem to be indifferent about the state of those rooms. This is a headache for parents, and they are often forced to take the lead on designing the bedrooms for boys and young men. Still, the process doesn’t have to be so challenging. If you follow these simple tips, you’ll help your growing men develop a sense of style and take pride in the state of their living spaces.
Color Coordination
Men tend to like neutral colors. Blacks, grays and earth tones are all winners for the most part. Although exceptions do exist, bedding collections with a simple color palette will make you run into fewer obstacles. As cute as themed gifts are, adolescent males probably want to keep things simple. If you do opt for a themed gift, keep it understated, like buying a pillow case with the logo of their favorite sports team.
Cleaning Instructions
Young men probably won’t dry clean, even if the instructions clearly tell them to do so. Especially in college, where most people are still getting the hang of budgeting. As a result, some of the more delicate luxury bedding sets might be wasted on a high school male. Try to keep the maintenance as simple as possible, and make sure they can toss it into the washing machine and move along with their day.
