How to put on a duvet cover : step-by-step guide

Introduction

Putting on a duvet cover can be a frustrating task for some. However, there are different methods to facilitate this process. In this article, we will introduce you to two popular methods and some tips so that you can put on a duvet cover quickly and easily.

Traditional method

Preparing the cover and duvet

Start by laying the duvet cover flat on your bed, with the opening facing you. Then, lay the comforter on top, making sure to line up the corners and edges.

Fixing the corners

Take a corner of the duvet and slide it into the corresponding corner of the cover. Repeat this step for the other three corners, making sure to hold each corner in place while you work on the others.

Closing the cover

Once all the corners are in place, lift the bottom of the duvet cover and shake it so that the comforter is evenly distributed inside. Finally, close the cover with the buttons, ties or zipper.

Burrito method

Preparation of elements

Lay the duvet cover flat on the bed, with the opening facing you. Place the comforter on top, aligning the corners and edges as in the previous method.

Rolling up the duvet

Start rolling the comforter and cover together, starting at the edge opposite the opening. Roll them until you reach the edge with the opening of the cover.

Turning the cover

Reach your hands into the opening of the duvet cover and grab the end of the "burrito" you just created. Pull this end toward you, tucking the rest of the “burrito” inside the cover. Then unroll the duvet and cover, and adjust them so that they are securely in place.

Tips to make the task easier

Organization and storage

Keep your bedding stored and folded together to make changing sheets easier. You can even store the folded duvet cover inside the corresponding pillowcase to save time.

Attach the corners

Some duvet cover designs have ties or snaps at the corners to hold the duvet in place. Use them to prevent the duvet from sliding inside the cover.

Folding and storage

Learn how to fold your duvet cover correctly to save space and make the putting process easier next time.
