Keeping the bed always clean and tidy is a matter of organization that also influences a good night's sleep. Knowing how to make the right bed makes the room look better, and prevents the creases in the sheet and that sloppy look.
For those who do not have much practice, it seems to be complicated, but nothing that good tips and some training do not solve.
Check out some bedding tips for tight sheets, just like in hotel rooms. Putting the tips into practice every day makes it easy to get practice.
If you are laying out or planning to renew bedding, be aware that Egyptian cotton or pima cotton sheets are more malleable and keep the bed stretched longer.
Step by step on how to make the bed
- Cover the mattress with the elastic sheet at the ends;
- Lay a sheet upside down so that the top lines are toward the headboard and the bottom extends beyond the mattress to the floor.
- On top, place a thin cover so that it is a few inches from the top of the sheet.
- At the bottom of the bed, place the hem of the sheet and quilt under the mattress, leaving the sides hanging;
- Still at the bottom, move to one side of the bed;
- In the hanging sheet and quilt hems, hold the ends about 12 inches off the floor and lift them with one hand to create a triangle;
- With the other hand fit the bottom of the triangle under the mattress;
- For the sheet and quilt to form a diagonal fold, fold the rest of the triangle down one more time;
- Hold the fold firmly and place under the mattress, always smoothing the creases that form. Repeat the procedure on the remaining corners of the bed.
- At the head of the bed, fold the bedspread and the sheet together, folding it down;
- Lay the leftover sheets on the sides under the mattress, smoothing the creases;
- Finish the bed by putting some pillows to decorate.
