Duvet covers...AAARRRGGGHHHHHH

[murraymints]

Just changed beds..in between posting...even though I do the inside out and shake it all about thing..I always seem to end up ina mess..or in it even.!....ideas on how to do it better ?

[craft1948]

Let the cleaner do it :-)

[joggerjayne]

Yes

[natalie]

I changed mine last night and was terribly uncomfortable as I forgot to do up the button!
Stand on a high chair or something and hold the blanket at one end then shake xD

[milly143]

Do it inside out but once you have hold of the corners, hang it over the banister at the top of the stairs and shake it out.

[NazNomad]

Yes, get someone to hold 2 corners while you hold the opposite 2.


Obviously not diagonal corners though, or you end up playing 'Duver Twister'.

[ummmm]

I don't do the inside out thing. I just put the corners of the duvet to the corners of the cover...and shake. I think it helps having a feather duvet..

Go with milly's unless like me you live in a bungalow.

[cazzz1975]

I never have that problem when I do the inside out and shake it all about way

[milly143]

Ooops, in your case Craft....stand on the roof. :o)

[LoftyLottie]

I get Mr LL to do it!!

[ummmm]

Pixi explained it better :-)

[craft1948]

Thanks milly..............I now have a vision of all the local pensioners, complete with zimmers etc., waving their duvets from their roofs.................

Sew short lengths of tape to each corner of the duvet and to each inside corner of the duvet corner + tie them together.

sheets and blankets :-)

Inside out thing and job done in less than 30 seconds. Not sure what feathers have to do with it as I can't have feather pillows/duvets etc...

[LoftyLottie]

Do you know Woofie, I really can't sleep any more under sheets and blankets. I don't even like a sheet between me and the duvet cover 'cos it stops you tucking the duvet all round and doesn't feel cosy. I bought my first Duvet back in the early 70's. I couldn't go back.

[ummmm]

Think they are just easier to shake about....

[milly143]

Yeah, can't say I have ever noticed a difference in with feather duvets.
