Yes, all orders will be charged a 5% GST Federal Sales Tax. Plus, every province has its own Sales Tax, which will also be added on to your purchase.

A discounted flat-rate charge of $20 (ON, QC) and $35 (all other provinces) is added to all orders. We have discounted the shipping rate to help keep costs lower.

About taking care of your linens:

We recommend washing your bed sheets and duvet cover prior to first use if you want the best experience, however it is not mandatory.

Refer to the laundry instructions on all items.   Most are machine wash and dryable.  We recommend cold or warm water washing and a low dryer setting.  To avoid the most wrinkles, remake bed immediately after removing from the dryer.  Sheet sets and covers can be ironed or steamed on a low setting.

While all cotton products can shrink, most of our items have been pre-washed during the manufacturing process, limiting shrinkage to 2-3% (if any), as long as all washing instructions have been followed.

To help keep your linens staying in their best condition, we recommend following all packaging instructions.  As well:

  • Wash separately from other items
  • Avoid high heat
  • Use mild detergents
  • Avoid brighteners and bleach
  • Store in a cool, dry environment
