For easier duvet cover changing, I’ve just ordered some of these.

I've never thought of using clothes pegs. What agood idea.
I usually do the inside out and shake it all about way.

If I am changing a cover on my own I just use normal clothes pegs!

MrOops once declared that if he helped me to change the duvet covers life would be easier.

It wasn’t.

I don’t let him anywhere near when I’m changing duvet covers anymore.

I do the same Stephanie it is how the Dutch do it - after hanging their duvets out the windows to air!

I turn the (king size) duvet cover inside out, reach into it and grab the corner and the corners of the duvet and shake it the right way.

Let me know how you get on.

I do the bottom corners like you but it's not always successful.

I can't cope with the California roll thing either.

I would willingly pay a person who came in, changed the bed, took it away, washed and ironed it and then repeated regularly.

Mega-clothes pegs.

I usually get dh to help me, but he’s away and after changing both a king size and a super-king by myself the other day, I thought of these - more usually seen on the beach, to stop towels blowing away.

I know there’s supposed to be an easy way but I tried it and found it just as much of a faff. Our method is to stuff the bottom corners of the duvet into the bottom cover corners - and hope they stay there while you do the top two - button up and a good shake.
But it should be easier with these - she said hopefully.
