There are those who use their bed for sleep and there are those who use their bed for just about every facet of life, from work to reading to hurkle-durkling — an old Swedish term newly popular on TikTok that describes an indulgent all-day lounge session.
If you consider yourself among the latter and you’re curious about all the ways you can make your bed even more of a live-in sanctuary that it already is, tuck into the list of goods just ahead.
As a proud bed-resident myself, I’ve found comfy essentials like gel-infused mattress pads, gorgeous cotton canopies, convenient rolling bed desks and more items can solidify a bed as the one place that is a true respite from the world.
