Satin and silk sheets sure are sexy but so slippery!

When the purchase of our first home together went through I was on the other side of the world visiting family so my partner had to deal with pretty much all the finer details on his own.
This included selecting and buying furniture and many of the odds and ends which go into a brand new home. Considering it was his first experience of such he carried the task off well; it took countless midnight international phone calls to discuss colours, shading, fabrics, etc, to achieve the job though. Me being phoned after midnight and him making the call from somewhere in M&S or Dunnes.
When it came to the bedding I chose from an online catalogue and he went and bought the stuff and it was during one of these expeditions that he saw something in the store which seems to be every womans fantasy - satin sheets and silk bedding. He couldn’t resist buying a set as a surprise for me and chose a very deep shade of red. Fast forward a few weeks and we are trying out the sheets (sleeping on them I mean).
I have to say they certainly provide for an interesting experience. One difficult thing is keeping the darn things tucked in and you really do slide around on them. Getting the quilt into the cover was a job in itself due to the slippery, shiny fabric and by next morning we decided that the egyptian cotton sheets would be more practical.
However, those satin sheets certainly do get used from time to time…
