As one of the most important pieces of furniture in your home, your bed certainly deserves some special attention. After all, it is the place where you will spend about one-third of your life, so it’s only natural to want to make it look and feel as comfortable and inviting as possible. The good news is that making your bed is a relatively simple task that doesn’t require any special skills or tools. In this article, we will give you some tips on how to make the bed carefully and beautifully.

1. Start with clean sheets

The first step in making your bed is to ensure that your sheets are clean and fresh. It’s important to wash your sheets on a regular basis (at least once a week) to get rid of any dirt, dust, or bacteria that may have accumulated on them. Once your sheets are clean, give them a good shake to get rid of any creases or wrinkles.

2. Put on the fitted sheet

Next, it’s time to put on the fitted sheet. This is the sheet with elastic corners that hugs the mattress tightly. Start by fitting the sheet over one corner of the mattress and then move to the other corner, making sure that the sheet is pulled taut across the surface of the mattress. Smooth out any wrinkles or creases with your hands.

3. Add the flat sheet

Now it’s time to add the flat sheet. Place the sheet on top of the fitted sheet, making sure that it’s centered on the bed. You’ll want the sheet to be slightly longer on one side than the other so that you can fold it over the top of the blanket later. Tuck the sheet under the mattress at the foot of the bed and on the sides.

4. Place the blanket

Next, place the blanket on top of the flat sheet. Again, make sure that it’s centered on the bed and that it’s hanging over the sides evenly. If you want to add a decorative touch, you can fold the blanket in half or thirds and place it at the foot of the bed, creating a more layered look.

5. Add pillows and shams

Now it’s time to add the pillows and shams. Start with the pillows, placing them against the headboard. If you have two pillows, place them side by side with the open ends facing outward. If you have more than two, you can stack them on top of each other in a pyramid shape. Next, add the shams. These are decorative pillow covers that go over the pillowcases. Place them in front of the pillows, making sure that they are centered and aligned.

6. Fold the top sheet and blanket

Finally, it’s time to fold the top sheet and blanket over the pillows. Start by folding the top sheet down about one-third of the way, making sure that it’s even on both sides. Next, fold the blanket over the top sheet, leaving about six inches of the top sheet visible at the top. Tuck the folded edges under the pillows on both sides.

Congratulations, you’ve just made your bed! With these simple steps, you can create a beautiful and inviting bed that will look great every day. Remember to wash your sheets, pillowcases, and shams regularly to keep them clean and fresh, and if you want to add an extra touch of luxury, you can invest in some high-quality bedding or decorative pillows to enhance the overall look and feel of your bed. Sweet dreams!
