If folding a fitted sheet seems like a mystery mastered by only a handful of domestic experts, this how-to is for you! Crack the code with our foolproof technique for taming the clumsy and cumbersome fitted sheet. Read on to achieve the perfectly organized linen closet of your dreams.
STEP 1: Fold sheets right out of the dryer to avoid wrinkles.
STEP 2: Drape the sheet over your hands right-side out with the elastic edge facing you. Hold the sheet by the adjacent corners of one of the longer sides.
STEP 3: Bring your right hand to the left, folding the sheet in half horizontally and tucking one corner into another.
STEP 4: Lay flat on a large, clean surface like a bed, table, or clean floor.
STEP 5: Fold the side farthest from you in towards the center.
STEP 6: Repeat with the other side closest to you, and overlap the first side about 1/2 inch in the center.
STEP 7: Fold each of the ends to meet in the center.
STEP 8: Once again, fold one side over the other. Give the final touches and smooth out any bumps.
