To put on a fitted sheet, follow these steps:
1. Start by holding the sheet with the elastic corners facing up.
2. Place one corner of the sheet onto the corresponding corner of the mattress.
3. Stretch the sheet over the mattress, pulling it firmly to fit snugly.
4. Repeat the same process for the other three corners.
5. Smooth out any wrinkles or creases on the sheet.
6. Tuck the excess fabric under the mattress for a neat appearance.
7. Make sure the sheet is securely fitted on all corners.
8. Finish by making the bed as usual with pillows and blankets.
Most bedding sets include two sheets: a fitted sheet that covers the mattress and a flat sheet that goes on top of the fitted sheet. The fitted sheet is typically made with elastic that creates pockets on the four corners, helping it fit snugly around the mattress. These pockets prevent the sheet from slipping off the mattress during the night. Fitted sheets can have elastic on two sides or elastic all the way around. Purchase sheets that are designed for your mattress size.
Step 1
Place the fitted sheet on the mattress and spread it out as flat as possible. Make sure it is positioned correctly, as the mattress is longer than it is wide.
Step 2
Take one corner of the fitted sheet and pull it over the top right corner of the mattress, tucking it underneath. If there is a seam on the corner of the fitted sheet, it should be at the top of the mattress.
Step 3
Slide the sheet over the corner at the foot of the bed on the same side. Tuck it under the mattress.
Step 4
Move to the other side of the bed and slip the corner of the sheet onto the corner at the foot of the bed.
Step 5
Pull the sheet towards the top left corner of the bed and tuck it under that corner of the mattress.
Step 6
Walk around the bed and make sure all corners of the mattress are still in place, tucked under the mattress.
