The easy way to make a bed

Making a bed seems like such a simple task, yet the problems that it can cause to people every day are unbelievable. Different people have different ways of making beds, all of which claim theirs is the best technique to use. Here is a simple six-step guide to making a bed which should make your life considerably easier.
1. Get all your supplies together. You’ll need a bed sheet, duvet and cover, pillows and pillow cases. Make sure you’ve got a duvet that will fit the duvet cover, as this can cause some discomfort during the night as loose material can get trapped between your legs.
2. Remove the used linens, as mentioned above. Most will need to go in the wash, so put them in your laundry bag. In some cases, the mattress may need brushing down or ‘airing out’, so you might want to leave it for ten minutes before putting on the new linens.
3. Put the bottom sheet on. There are two types of bed sheet: fitted and flat. With a fitted sheet, you just need to slip the corner pockets over the corners of the mattress and then adjust it to make it neater. With a flat mattress, you will need to place it on the mattress so that one foot or so hangs down over the side, then you can tuck this under and neaten the top.
4. This next step applies to some people but not others; it all depends on personal preference. You can add a top sheet to your bed and either tuck the sides under the mattress or leave it loose (the latter makes it easier to get into the bed). If you’re worried about any spare sheet hanging down, remember that your duvet will likely cover this up.
5. Add your duvet, after placing on the duvet cover. Many people have difficulty putting on a duvet cover, so here is a simple method that can be done in a couple of minutes. Turn the duvet cover inside-out, then place your hands inside it and grab the far corners. Then, through the cover, grab the top corners of your duvet and pull your hands back out, keeping hold of the duvet. You will need to shake the duvet down to make it neat and then button it at the bottom.
6. Add your pillows by placing them on top of the top sheet and then folding your duvet over the pillows, smoothing them at the edges.
