Tips For Making Beds

I have an easier way of making a bed up. When I make my bed in the mornings, I don't go around the bed five or six times. I do one side of bed completely before going to the other side. It saves a lot of leg work and it's quicker to get it made up, to go on to other things.

Also when folding sheets together I fold the fitted and pillow cases and then fold flat sheets around them to keep them together. So much easier.

It's so good to read someone who folds their sheets the same way I do. So many people say they fold theirs and put them inside the pillowcase. I don't like that idea at all because the pillow case gets dusty, especially in these parts of the country where dust is a major problem most of the year. I fold mine like you said, making sure that the flat sheet is folded so that the bottom part of the sheet is on the outside when I fold them all together. Getting a little dust on my feet is so much better than getting it on the top part of the sheet or my pillowcase where it's up close to my face and nose!
