What is how to put on a duvet cover?
Here's a guide on how to put on a duvet cover:
Putting on a duvet cover can sometimes feel like a wrestling match, but with a few simple techniques, it can be quick and painless. Here are a few methods:
The Inside-Out Method (aka The California Roll):
- Turn the duvet cover inside out. Lay it on your bed with the opening at the foot of the bed.
- Lay the duvet on top. Align the corners of the duvet with the corners of the inside-out duvet cover.
- Tie or clip corners. Many duvet covers have ties or clips inside the corners. Secure the duvet to the cover at all four corners. If your cover doesn't have them, you can add your own corner%20ties or clips.
- Roll it up. Starting at the head of the bed, roll the duvet and duvet cover together tightly, like a burrito, towards the foot of the bed.
- Invert the cover. Reach into the opening of the duvet cover (at the foot of the bed) and grab the corner of the duvet and the cover together. Pull that corner right-side out, inverting the cover as you go. Repeat on the other corner.
- Shake and fluff. Once the cover is right-side out, give it a good shake to help the duvet settle evenly inside. Fasten the closure (buttons, snaps, or zipper). Fluff it up!
The Traditional Method:
- Lay the duvet cover right-side out on the bed.
- Lay the duvet on top. Align one edge of the duvet with the corresponding edge of the cover.
- Insert the duvet. Reach inside the duvet cover and grab the top two corners. Grab the top two corners of the duvet itself. Hold them together tightly and shake the duvet down into the cover. Repeat for the bottom two corners.
- Fasten and fluff. Fasten the closure and fluff to distribute the duvet evenly.
Tips for Success:
- Smooth the duvet: Ensure your duvet is spread out smoothly and evenly before you start. This reduces bunching.
- Use duvet clips: Consider using duvet%20clips to keep the duvet from shifting inside the cover.
- Work with a partner: Having someone help can make the process much faster and easier, especially with larger duvets.
- Practice makes perfect: Don't get discouraged if it's tricky the first few times. With practice, you'll find a method that works best for you.
- Consider the duvet%20cover%20material: Some materials are easier to work with than others. Slippery fabrics can be more challenging.
