Quality sleep isn’t only about the number of hours of sleep one gets every night. A very important component of a restful slumber is how much comfort the bed and sheets provide. Most households opt for synthetic sheets because of their affordability but that’s rarely a good idea. Synthetic fabrics don’t breathe and can cause a person to perspire and be too warm throughout the night, leading to discomfort. When it comes to quality bedding options, one can never go wrong with natural linen sheets!

The Benefits of Linen Sheets

One of the most exciting benefits of this bedding is that it’s very light and breathable. This is excellent because it won’t cause a person to perspire or get too warm during the night. Quality linen sheets can feel very soft and luxurious, providing even more comfort. Another perk is that they stay fresh and crisp much longer than some other types of sheets. 

How to Choose The Right One

Depending on the thread count and quality of production, the softness and feel can vary, which is why it’s important to do the necessary research before committing to buying a set of these sheets. They’re available in different colors and designs, so there’s certainly something for everyone. If possible, touching to feel the texture of the different beddings available can really help in making the right choice.

Downsides

On average, natural linen bedding can be more expensive than other types of sheets. Many sources say that this cost difference between, for example, linen and cotton sheets, is due to the difficulty of finding the right soil to grow quality flax. Flax is the plant from which linen is made, and it’s more difficult and time-consuming to cultivate than cotton. That’s a big part of why it’s so much more expensive.

Are quality linen sheets worth the extra cost? We certainly believe so! Restful and comfortable sleep does wonders for the body and mind, and that’s something definitely worth investing in! At the very least, seeing what’s available in local stores couldn’t hurt.

It would be very understandable if someone with the last name Spelling lived in a luxurious mansion with more rooms than they know what to do with. After all, The Spelling fortune began to be accumulated way back in the 70s.

Fall Out Boy sprang into being during the Emo phase of rock music. With their angsty and catchy songs, they built a following and earned the band members quite a bit of cash. One of the members, Pete Wentz, has gone on to open his own record label as well.

But even with that extra cash flow, the millionaire rock star still wants to keep things simple. He does this by living in a traditional four-bedroom home that is only with a little over $1 million.

For several years we have all followed the life of Meredith Grey on Grey’s Anatomy. Because of this spotlight, we have also been introduced to her portrayer Ellen Pompeo. She, like Meredith, seems to like the simpler things in life.

This is why she chose to do with a reasonable little home in the Hamptons. Eventually, of course, like many other stars, she chose to upgrade and sold the house, but the humble abode was still a surprising choice for the big A-lister.

Ellen first caught everyone’s attention in her starring role in the independent film Juno. Now part of the Umbrella Academy cast, she only continues to elevate her Hollywood status. She seems like a pretty low maintenance star, though.

One of the ways we know this is the home she chose. Six years ago, she purchased a small two-bedroom home for under $1 million. Recently she has moved into something a bit bigger, but we are sure even it is pretty humble.

The frontman for Incubus, Brandon Boyd, is far more than just a rock star. He is an artist and an author as well. Even though he has a rockstar status, Brandon still prefers a quiet life away from the spotlights.

Hilary Swank has done some amazing films and has, through the years, built up her reputation and she is now a certified Hollywood A-lister. There is just no escaping her talent and dedication, and that is why she could buy a beachside mansion with her own private beach if she wanted to.

Blake Lively is married to another celebrity A-lister, Ryan Reynolds. So with their salaries combined, they should be able to afford a small palace if they wanted. But the two like to stay down to earth and opted for something just a little more understated.

The two chose to invest in a cute little country home that kind of looks like Martha Stewart may be a neighbor on one side and Ina Garten on the other.

Brooke Shields seems to have been in the world of entertainment since forever. She started off as a child model and made a smooth transition into acting. Despite being worth about $24 million, Shields decided against purchasing a mansion and sided with this historical cottage, which is located in the Hamptons.

There is no denying that Christina Ricci is best known for playing Wednesday in the early ’90s movies about the Addams Family. Despite this, the young actress has managed to find work all over Hollywood. These days, Ricci lives in New York City.

However, when she was back in L.A., she was shacked up in a pretty humble home. Yes, she is worth about $18 million, but Ricci only splashed a cool $1.5 million on this 1,891-square-foot home. It’s pricey, but not by Hollywood standards.

When you have hits such as “Seven Nation Army” under your belt and a plethora of Grammy Awards, you’re bound to be able to afford the finest of homes. Take Jack White, for example, who has reached the stars since his days with The White Stripes.

You wouldn’t exactly associate Shaquille O’Neal with the word humble. After all, he seems to have won it all with the LA Lakers and even has an acting career. Back in 2012, the retired NBA star bought a home in Mount Dora, Florida for just $235,000.

With five bedrooms, four baths, and some indoor courts, it certainly isn’t the most lowkey home on this list. But by celebrity standards, it’s not much to write home about. At least Shaq can still play basketball here.

Lena Headey probably never imagined that she could buy multiple mansions after becoming one of the highest-paid TV stars in the world. Her role as Cersei Lannister on HBO’s Game of Thrones made her a multi-millionaire. And yet, she has a tendency to keep things very humble.

Take this small bungalow, which Headey purchased for just $790,000 in the San Fernando Valley. Part of the low cost is the small size of the home. Lena just needs a place to get away from King’s Landing.

Daryl Hannah’s acting career seems to have spanned over multiple decades, with significant roles in movies such as Blade Runner, Splash, and Kill Bill. It should come as no surprise then that the actress has a healthy net worth to her name.

You can’t have a conversation about Law & Order: Special Victims Unit without mentioning the one and only, Mariska Hargitay. This talented actress has been the lead role of the popular series for the good part of two decades now and is still going strong.

There is no denying that the $10.7 million that Mariska and her husband spent on this six-bedroom townhouse isn’t the most humble inclusion on this list. However, it’s still small in comparison to many celeb homes, with Mariska focusing mainly on location over size.

These days, Jennifer Lawrence has no trouble living it up in beautiful Hollywood homes. However, she was happy to keep things modest early on in her career. After her big break, the actress settled for an $879,000 townhouse, which was undeniably understated in design.

The name Hilton stirs images of gold plated mirrors and expensive drinks, and it does this for a reason. The family has been hotel moguls for decades, and Nicky Hilton is one of the recipients of all that hard work.

Tobey Maguire has been in a wide range of amazing films. From his turn as the web-slinger to the Oscar-worthy Seabiscuit, he is known for his kind and modest portrayal of all his roles.

Of all the homes on our list, the home of country music star Carrie Underwood is probably the most luxurious, but even then, it is super humble. She married a hockey player from Canada, and so the country music star moved up north and found herself a little plot of land.

Maybe he doesn’t have as much name recognition as some of his peers like Spielberg and Coppola, but Tom Shadyac is an accomplished Hollywood director. If you have seen Ace Ventura or Bruce Almighty, then you have appreciated his work.

This director could have taken all his millions and moved into Calabasas or some other ritzy area, but that is not what he did. Instead, he donated most of his money and lives in a quaint little beach trailer.

This name may not be one that everyone knows but trust us, she is definitely a celeb A-lister. She is a fashion celeb and hails originally from the UK but found a place she likes in the US. There she decided to settle in NYC.

Along with her husband, they bought a beautiful duplex and then did some renovations to give it a roomier feel. Even after the work they did, the home is still very modest.
