putting on a duvet cover

Pardon me, but that is b****y marvelous!!

I did actually get a tad excited - pity I've just changed the beds and will have to wait nearly a week to try it out.

That's an original idea!
Husband's way is to hang the cover over the landing bannister, then bundle the duvet into it, keeping hold of the last end corners. Then shake hard.
You really need 2 people though, for a double .

Thats ingenious I'll definitely give that a try when I change my quilt ..

Seen this on TV but haven't tried it

what I want to know... is what do you do with all those extra pillows and cushions etc, when you actually go to bed!?! Our DD2 is mad on house decoration- the spare room has a nice big king bed but the room is quite small- and there are 4 pillows and at least 4 cushions too- looks great but ....

That looks so easy. I thought that I had it down to a fine art with my king sized duvet cover but that method takes seconds. A pity that I have just finished changing my bedding and with luck I will not have forgotten by next week!

I have some extra pillows that I use if sitting up in bed against the headboard and a couple that just decorative I just put them either in a pile on a chair or the headboard one goes beside the bed against the bedside cupboard when I lay me down to sleep that way I can grab it again in the morning to sit up and drink the lovely cuppa OH brings me.

I've always done it that way

Now that's really confused me - the first time I watched it the video was showing the way I do it, now it's showing the rolling way. I don't do it that way!!

Our extra pillows and the throw are put on the stool under the window or, if I'm really tired, slung on the floor in an untidy heap.

Wow! I'll give that a go next time instead of disappearing a* * * e up inside the duvet cover! I too have extra pillows for propping up purposes - stems back to feeding the baby in bed days...

Love it. Even better, I'm just about to change our bedding and set up beds for the deluge of family over Christmas. Thanks for posting, Grannyactivist!

Well I never! I'll have to try that. It's better than the fight I have every week

I make a 'nest' of pillows which stems from the period after I had shoulder surgery and needed to make myself comfortable and stable overnight.

I have a wicker bedding basket at the end of my bed that spare pillows get thrown on.

It looks very clever, very neat. But what you don't see is the number of times she has to walk around the bed - first she's one side, then she's the other. Oh, now she's back on that side. And so on...
I use the inside out method - you know, cover inside out, reach inside for the furthest corners and whilst holding them, grab two corners of the duvet. Give it a shake and the cover turns outside out over the duvet. No walking backwards and forwards around the bed.

That's what I do Indinana. Seems easy to me.

Just tried the method in the OP and it works! Even with my limited spatial skills and super king duvet. Not quite as nifty as the video and looks a bit unconvincing half way through, but keep going and it sorts itself out. Certainly much less palaver than anything else I've tried...

What I need is a way of doing it with a frozen shoulder and on a bed (small double) surrounded by walls on three sides. Shaking it is out of the question at the moment. . Putting on a duvet cover, that is

Well so easy. i never try this. But now I got it. Thanks for sharing.

I've just tried this; half way through I thought 'blow this for a bag of chips' but persevered and, yes it does work although with a king size duvet it's a bit of an effort. Perhaps with practice it will become easier......

I timed myself doing it by holding the top corners of the duvet, furtling up inside the duvet for the top corners of the cover then by holding the corners outside I give it a good shake and bingo! Took 1 minute 4 seconds including poppers.

I couldn't be bothered to keep going from one side to t'other personally- i look forward to hearing how GNs get on!

Definitely going to try that
