The most important area in your life to start, or continue, to make ethical purchases would be your bedroom. Unless you work from home, you are probably in your bedroom for the most hours of the day. Bedtime is especially important because at a very close proximity you are breathing in whatever your bedding is off-gassing. Below is a list of American made bedding products that we use, or have on our list of items to buy next list.
THE BED:
Company: ABC Home
Made In: California, USA
Description: For my next bed purchase, I think I'd be ready for this American made bed with headboard. ABC Home's Sonoma bed seems like a great choice. The bed is modern, yet still exudes enough warmth. While I very much like this color, it also comes in a variety of other soothing tones. The Sonoma has a slipcovered headboard and base, which uses a combination of linen and cotton. Foam core and soft wrap are used for the fill. The fabric must be dry cleaned professionally.
Social Responsibility: This bed is responsibly made in California using 90%
recycled steel legs.

Supima Cotton is coveted worldwide and is known to be stronger and brighter than other cottons, and also known to become softer and softer with each washing.
Social Responsibility: Cotton & Care is dedicated to producing their sheets and pillowcases 100% made in America.

BED & PILLOW COVERINGS:
Company: Matteo

Description: When I purchased my Matteo, Made in America bedding, my bed was instantly transformed into a luxurious haven of relaxation. I actually love making my bed in the morning now because Matteo makes any room look beautiful. Matteo's mission to create quality product shines through and through. The colors and attention to detail are impeccable. My favorite aspect of the Matteo line is their reference to vintage fabrics. They seek to recreate the look and feel of well-loved textiles, which requires the perfect amount of softness, yet stability.
Social Responsibility: Matteo was formed specifically to showcase American manufacturing using beautifully sewn textiles. Fabrics can be sourced internationally, but are cut, sewn and dyed to order locally in Los Angeles.
