How You Can Put A Duvet In A Cover
It is human nature to take some things for granted especially when they don’t seem to add much value to life. The other day I read a post about how someone was struggling with getting a freshly washed duvet cover back on the duvet. In my lifetime I have share a number of times about Calvin Klein duvet sets and others and all that jazz but I have never thought of this a worthy of a post until now.
Allow me to share with you some of the easier way you can employ when doing this. Applying these tips will save you a lot of time and also damage to your brown duvet cover or other color you may have caused by the pulling and folding and helplessness.
I know someone who literally crawls inside her flannel duvet cover so she can be able to pull the comforter and fit it into place. I am not sure I would ever do that myself – unless you are sure that your floor, where you’d have to lay the cover, is clean and germ free and clean then you can try out this one.
One easier way to do it effectively is to simply roll it up like a carpet. Once you’ve done that just put it in the duvet and unroll it. The next one is my favourite way of doing it. Turn the cover inside out and then line it up i.e. the corner of the quilt with the inside seam of the cover. While still holding on the corners flip it right side out and you’ll be done – just like that.
My last recommendation is to buy and use some duvet clips. In order to use these, you need to do like above i.e. turn it inside out, line it up then put the clips at each corner at the seam. A metal clip is fine but try to find a soft foam one for best results. After you’ve attached the clips on to the quilt and seam you can then flip the cover right side out and it will remain in place – and you will be done.
