How not to lose bedding sets: life hacks

Lying down in a freshly laundered bed set is a special kind of pleasure that you can indulge in at any time. But when you do the laundry, especially when you have to wash many things at once, some items can get lost, and the bed turns into a pile of disparate things.

However, experts say that bedding can be left complete if you wash it properly and store it properly. OBOZ.UA tells you about the best methods.

Reduce the amount

Start by reducing your linen collection to the essentials. You'll be surprised how much space will be freed up in your closet and how much easier it will be to manage the use of bedding. The optimal number is two sets per bed. Three is more than enough.

Give each set its own place

Once you've taken down the essentials, choose a clear place for each set. You can sort the linen into categories as you prefer, for example, by size or by room. Determine where each set should be located. And assign someone responsible for each one. Older children are quite capable of doing this themselves.

Besides labeling, the best way to store your bedding sets will depend on your available space. Linen closets are usually filled with shallow shelves, but a closet with a rod will also work. Think about the storage system and stick to it.

4 ways to organize bedding storage

And these are the methods that will allow you to store your linen properly. Choose the one you like best

• Method 1: storage inside the pillowcase

To make your linen closet look neat, put each set in one of the pillowcases. And then tuck it into another pillowcase. This way, all the things will be together and you won't have to look for them all over the closet.

• Method 2: using containers

You can also buy a separate container for each set. It can be a zip-top bag, a pouch, a basket, or a box. After washing and ironing, put each set in its container and place it in its designated place in the closet. Sheets made of silk or satin are easier to roll than to fold, so tubes are better for them.

• Method 3: Store on hangers

You can keep one set of bedding on sturdy hangers. And this life hack reduces the time it takes to fold them. You simply hang up the clothes after washing them and take them out of the closet in one motion when you need them. However, this arrangement may cause the bedding to get dusty. You need to keep this in mind. In this case, it is better to wrap it in a linen cover.

• Method 4: Hanging organizer

Another solution for a wardrobe with a rod is to store bedding in a large hanging organizer. Each compartment in such an organizer can hold from one to two sets. This method can be very convenient for small apartments where it is not possible to install a wardrobe or chest of drawers for linen.
