Not sure how to decorate a bedroom? Start by browsing the best bohemian bedding sets to jump-start the process. Also known as boho style, this free-spirited aesthetic is built on an eclectic mix of patterns and organic textures anchored by earthy elements and color palettes. Take a look at Justina Blakeney’s Los Angeles home tour to find inspiration—her peacock-hued bedroom is a lesson in texture. The beauty of this style is that you can express yourself with bold prints that range from paisley motifs and palm leaves, or tone it down by layering a neutral bedspread and pillow shams with tassels or pom-poms.
Even if minimalist linens are your thing, bohemian bedding is not off-limits. Take the Buffy Belgian linen duvet cover with olive tree wooden buttons, for instance. It’s understated but still adds a certain artsy twist.
Take a deep dive into the boho bedroom bedding ideas with our top picks, many tested by AD editors. Here, we highlight 15 high-quality bedding essentials including pillowcases, duvet covers, bed sheets, and throw blankets that deliver on style but don’t sacrifice comfort.

Best Linen Bedding
When it comes to material, it doesn’t get earthier than flax, and the Parachute European linen duvet cover delivers. “With linen, sometimes it can be a roll of the dice. This set had the best of both worlds: super supple but still casually elevated,” says contributor Lila Allen in her review. Not only does this cover feel like it should belong in a Mediterranean retreat, the rich, bold colors, such as peacock teal, cobalt blue, and marigold yellow, are also a testament to global flair, especially because it’s made in the Guimarães region of Portugal.
Bold Throw Pillows

Add a groovy moment with the Lola Blankets Cosmic pillow, which comes in swirly sand, gray, and blue—but also tie-dye bright pastels in magenta, seafoam, and lavender. The pillows are made with the same material used for the brand’s signature four-way-stretch blankets. “The word plush doesn’t even begin to describe how the material feels,” says contributor Yelena Moroz Alpert, who recently added the newly released retro green blanket to her collection. “It’s like snuggling up to a baby rabbit.”

A Versatile Sheet Set
Bring luxury hotel bedding into your bohemian enclave with this California Design Den set. Commerce editor, Audrey Lee, tested these 1,000-thread-count sheets and vouches that the set “proved to be cool and airy on warmer nights and particularly cozy in cooler temperatures when I paired them with my favorite comforter.” Her review of the best Amazon sheets notes that these are crisp at first but soften up after a couple of washes. The new colorway options include sage green and sand beige.
An Embroidered Option
The embroidered pillowcases and flat sheet of The Citizenry’s stonewashed linen sheet set may seem like a small detail, but it completely sets up the mood of your bedding. “I have three other linen sheet sets and this is the only one with an eyelet detail, and this touch certainly earns it extra love points,” says Alpert. “It looks like something out of my grandma’s trousseau.” The seaglass colorway may be reminiscent of coastal waters, but when paired with a bejeweled accent pillow, they look like they could have been a find in a Moroccan market.
Striking Striped Sheets
For those times when travel is not on the books, create a vacation vibe with Piglet in Bed’s Pembroke Stripe bedding. The set, which includes pillowcases, sheets, and a duvet cover, is a striking addition that will wake up even the most ho-hum bedscape. The linen blend consistency (55% European flax linen and 45% cotton) feels a bit more brushed compared to pure linen, explains Alpert, who has these in the sage gingham colorway. She says to think of the linen blend as cotton bedding that has “seen the best of times,” adding that the lived-in feel is like sleeping in a nest.”
Best Bohemian Quilt
At times, cottagecore bedding and boho bedding are toeing the line because both styles have a touch of romantic flair. Brooklinen’s Airweave cotton quilt, made of 100% Turkish cotton, has a gauzy exterior wrapped around a cotton candy cloud body. “It reminds me of the blankets I chose for my baby—incredibly cozy but still delicate,” Alpert says of her tulip-hued quilt with light tufted detail. “What a nice surprise to find something that is adult-size!” Pair the six other solid colorways (including Storm blue and verdant Fern) with your favorite floral bedding for a laid-back ensemble that could be found at an artist’s residency.

“This style has boho bedding written all over it,” Alpert says of her walnut-hued throw. “Running my fingers through the texture, especially the curves of the bubbles, is basically meditation in a blanket.” The overly plush throw adds dimension to any bedscaping scenario, and even though it looks warm, it works for all seasons. “The throw is silky, but I wouldn’t expect anything less from Cozy Earth,” she says. “Everything they make prioritizes the tactile experience. It is so soft. This might be an odd comparison, but it’s as fuzzy as my cat.”
