How to Quit Struggling With Duvet Covers- By: Annie Deakin

Description : There a few things better than waking up thinking you have to get up for work, only to realize that is a Sunday, and you can have that lie in. Such a treat is made even more appealing by bedding down into the welcoming embrace of your duvet of course. Such experiences make the constant struggle with getting your duvets into their duvet covers worthwhile.

However, with this handy little guide, the weekly struggle with your duvet covers and pillowcases could well be a thing of the past. Indeed, after a little practice, there is no reason why you couldn t have all your beds changed within a matter of minutes.

When loading your washing machine with your duvet covers; ensure you have turned them inside out; this is key to success in filling your duvet covers. Once washed, store them away to air, as you usually would.

Fully aired and fresh as a daisy, you can now put your freshly laundered linen on your bed. Firstly, place you duvets on the bed and lay the inside out duvet covers on top, with the opening at the bottom.

Take your right hand, and slide it all the way up to the top right hand corner of the duvet covers. Take both the corner of the cover and the corner of the duvet in your clenched fist. With your left hand, take the bottom of the duvet opening, and quickly pull this over itself.

You will find half of the duvet is now within the cover; though it won t look particularly neat or comfortable at this point.

Repeat the steps above on the opposite side of the duvets; remembering to pull the duvet covers over as quickly as possible.

Again, the end result may not look the best at first, however, tuck the bottom corners of the duvet into the corners of the covers and smooth out. It will already look a lot better, though some lumps where the duvet has gathered will remain.

Next, take each corner of the top of the duvet covers firmly in your hands, and give them a good shake. It may take one or three attempts to fully right the lumps of duvet; and of course you can smooth things down with your hands if needs be. Once happy, simply finish the job by doing up the zipper or buttons at the bottoms of the cover.

It may take you one or two tries to fully grasp this concept, but I am confident you will find the process much more preferable than struggling to drag the duvet in from the bottom up. If you can rope somebody in to help you too, (kids love this by the way it s fun), you will find the job takes practically no time.

To ensure your duvet covers are always in tip top condition, store them in a plastic airtight container, and give them a quick work through the tumble dryer with a freshener sheet.
