Ever tried making your own mattress pad with things you already have at your disposal? It could be as simple as putting layers of fleece on your bed (about three would be great) or sewing a new home made mattress pad of your own.

Flannel sheets or cotton fabric make good mattress pads because these materials can keep the bed cool. Just sew or quilt this together, in between a foam.  Even an old quilted comforter may be used as stuffing for your home made mattress pad. You can also use sleeping bags as an alternative (to foam).
