Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Take note of everything that's included in the set that you're considering. Shop around to get the most for your money. For example, a queen-size set may include a comforter, two pillow shams, a bed skirt and two decorative throw pillows. Sheet sets often are not included.

  2. Step 2

    Understand that you can include luxury, machine washable fabrics in your options. For example, the look of suede can be achieved by buying a micro suede bed in a bag. Micro suede offers the luxurious look of suede without the added expense of dry cleaning.

  3. Step 3

    Know that some manufacturers have taken the bed-in-the-bag concept and extended it to the entire bedroom by offering a 24-piece room ensemble in a bag. Besides bedding pieces, such ensembles can include four drape panels, four tie backs and four valances.

  4. Step 4

    Look for bed-in-a-bag sets that mix and match coordinating patterns. This will create more decorative interest in your bedroom and allow you to combine those patterns with various solid colors of your choice to add variety to the set.

  5. Step 5

    Find bargains online simply by typing "bed in a bag" into your favorite search engine. Additionally, department and discount stores and specialty home stores offer bed-in-a-bag sets. Watch for those stores' white sales to get the best prices.
