A bedspread is a decorative covering for a bed, typically used to enhance the room's appearance. It is usually larger than the mattress, allowing it to drape over the sides. Bedspreads can be made from various materials, including cotton, polyester, or silk, and come in different styles, colors, and patterns to match the bedroom decor. In addition to their aesthetic appeal, bedspreads provide a layer of warmth and protection for bedding. They are often used in combination with other bedding items like sheets, comforters, and duvets to create a complete bedding ensemble. Bedspreads are easy to maintain and can be machine-washed, making them a practical choice for many households.
