clos-ette solutions: The Right Fold

Posted on February 16, 2011 by melanie fascitelli

I don't know about you but there is nothing worse than an untidy unorganized lumpy linen closet and time and time again the worst offender always seems to be the fitted sheet.

But alas do not despair there is a trick to taming the fitted sheet. I've jotted down a simple 6 step plan below...

Step 1: Lay the sheet on a bed or a large table and fold in and smooth all the edges.

Step 2: Fold in half horizontally, sliding the top gathered end into the pocket of the bottom gathered end. If the sheet's sides are ungathered, lay them flat; if gathered, slide them in, too.

Step 3: Fold in half horizontally again.

Step 4: Fold the bulky end horizontally to the middle of the sheet.

Step 5: Then fold over the smooth end.

Step 6: Fold lengthwise in thirds, or to your desired size.

Say goodbye to crinkly messes..
