Use This Sheet the Next Time You Make Your Bed.
Every Sunday I wage a war over my stretched sheet, trying to put it on my mattress, struggling to fit it in one corner as it comes off the other.
In a recent conversation on Reddit, u / ericfussell gave a brilliant and simple piece of advice if you’re struggling like me: after you’ve successfully closed your first corner, go to the diagonal corner for a second try. Setting the diagonal angle will not cause the first to break out.
According to Peter Canchelli, founder of MattressExpert.com , this tip works especially well with sheets that may be too small for your mattress (and require extra effort).
Also note the tag on the fitted sheet. The tag corner is often designed to be placed over the bottom right side of the mattress when looking at the bed. From here you can find its diagonal angle and fit the sheet at both ends.
