What is the difference between a bedspread and a comforter?
Bedspreads are typically lighter than comforters, and if you use them for sleeping, they aren't typically as warm. They make a better option for covering up during the summer, while comforters are better for colder nights. Bedspreads may also be more decorative. Some people only use them for decoration and don't sleep under them, while a comforter is usually purchased for sleeping.
Does a bedspread require other bedding accessories, like a bed skirt?
One of the best benefits of a bedspread is that you don't need a bed skirt. The bedspread usually drapes over the three exposed sides of the bed and does the job of a bed skirt. It will even cover your pillows. The only accessories you might want if you use a bedspread are some throw pillows for decoration.
How often does a bedspread need to be washed?
That depends on whether you use it for sleeping or not. If your bedspread is only used for decor and never comes in contact with your body when you sleep, it's fine to wash it two or three times a year. If you sleep with your bedspread but use a sheet or blanket underneath it, once a month should be okay. And if you sleep directly under your bedspread, you'll want to wash it every one to two weeks.
