Compostable Bedding

Compostable sheets (!) from Beantown Bedding

Is this the future? Beantown Bedding, a company founded by two moms in Boston, has introduced compostable bedding aimed at the college market. Called Bedsox, the sheets are available in Twin XL for $25 and can be used for several weeks before being thrown out. (Since college students can't be relied upon to do laundry.) They're made from Tencel and are dye- and chemical-free.

I love this idea—most especially for travel, if they add Queen and King sizes in the future—but I still think college kids should be expected to do their own laundry!
