Folding fitted sheets can be a challenging task for many.
Often, we end up with a mass of wrinkled fabric that seems impossible to handle.
However, with a little practice and some helpful tricks, you can master the art of folding fitted sheets like a pro.
1. Spread the sheet on a flat surface: Before you start folding, lay the fitted sheet on a flat surface, such as a table or the bed itself, with the elastic side up and the opposite corners in your hands. Make sure it is well stretched and wrinkle-free for a cleaner result.
2. Find the corners: With one hand on each top corner, cross one hand over the other so that the opposite corners overlap. This will create a fold in the middle of the sheet.
3. Fold the rest of the sheet: After folding the corners, smooth out any wrinkles in the sheet and fold the sides inward to form a rectangle. Fold the sheet into thirds, starting from the longest side, until you have a manageable and easy-to-store folded size.
And voilà! With these simple steps, you can fold your fitted sheets like a pro and keep your linen closet organized and tidy.
As with any skill, practice makes perfect. Don’t worry if you don’t manage to fold the fitted sheet perfectly the first time. With a little practice, you’ll improve your skills and soon be able to fold them quickly and efficiently.
