Making the bed: A small detail on the bed sheet helps a lot

Do you always have problems putting your fitted sheet on the right way round? With the “clever corner” it’s really easy. We'll tell you the trick.

There are a number of tasks that need to be done in the household every day. Some are easier, others more difficult. It's great when there are life hacks that make housework much easier.

We have now found such a life hack. This involves the use of the “smart corner” in the bedroom. This is intended to make changing bed linen or sheets much easier.

After all, sometimes it's not that easy to see where the bed sheet belongs on the mattress. So which side is the long and which is the short.

So that you no longer have any problems when making your bed in the future, we will explain to you what the “clever corner” is all about.

The “clever corner” helps when making your bed

There is almost nothing better than slipping into a freshly made bed after a long day at work and a shower. However, making the bed is not one of my favorite tasks.

Somehow my arms are always too short and the corners don't stay where they should be. And the worst thing is the fitted sheet. The typical question: Which side belongs where?

Since we have an almost square bed, you can't tell this at first glance. But the solution should now be the trick with the “smart corner”. If you know this trick, making your bed should be child's play.

How does the “smart corner” work?

But what is behind the “clever corner”? This is actually quite simple. As a rule, every (fitted) bed sheet has a label inside. This contains, among other things, washing instructions and material composition.

However, the label is crucial when making your bed. You can use this as a guide if you want to open the sheet.

The trick works like this:To ensure that the fitted sheet sits properly, you must always pull the corner with the label over the top right corner of the mattress. This way you can make sure the sides of the sheet fit properly. That's about it. Not only does it sound easy, but it is too. It's worth trying out!
