It can be difficult to store fitted sheets into closets without having them bunch. Follow these few simple tips and you can have sheets that are beautifully folded and a snap to store.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Step1
Place each hand under two corners of the sheet.
Step2
Bring your hands together in front of you, touching hands. Slip the left-handed corner over the right hand.
Step3
Pick up the third corner with your left hand. Transfer the corner over the right hand. You now have three corners on your right hand.
Step4
Pick up the final corner and transfer it over the right hand. You now have all four corners over the right hand.
Step5
Lay the sheet on a table with the elastic folds on top. Fold the sides connected to the elastic on top of the sheet, shaping the sheet into a rectangle.
Step6
Fold the sheet in half and then half again. This should leave you with a long rectangle.
Step7
Continue to fold the sheet until it is small enough to fit into your closet.

Tips & Warnings

  • Fold your sheets immediately after removing them from the dryer. This makes for easier folding and crisp-looking sheets.
