Gather These Tools:
STEP 1:
Fold sheets right out of the dryer to avoid wrinkles. 5 minutes before the cycle is complete, spray Crease Release directly into the drum for a wrinkle-free finish. If you miss the timing, don't worry! Spray and continue.
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.
