Bed Making Procedure

 
Items Needed 

 Fitted Sheet
 Sheets
 Pillows
 Pillowcases
 Comforter Or Quilt 

Instructions 

 You will start the bed-making procedure by putting the bottom sheet on the
mattress.
 If you have a fitted sheet, with sewn-in corners, all you need to do is fit it snugly
over the mattress.
 In case it is flat sheet that you use, the following steps will come handy.
 Lay the bottom sheet on the mattress, in such a way that there is enough of it to
tuck under the mattress, on all four sides.
 Now, tuck the sheet under the mattress, at the foot as well as the head of the
bed.
 While tucking the corners under the mattress on the long sides, make sure that
you have made flat folds.
 After you have fit in the fitted sheet or tucked in the flat sheet, at the bottom, it is
the time to move over to the top sheet.
 Repeat the above steps for tucking in the top sheet, but this time, only at the foot
of the bed.
 Following the procedure used in the above step, place blankets on the bed.
 Now, at the head of the bed, fold the top sheet back over the blankets. Make
sure to pull back the sheet to about half a foot and then tuck it under the side
flaps.
 Slip pillowcases over the pillows and keep them at the head of the bed, on top of
the blankets and sheets.
 You can either lay the pillows flat or prop them up against either the headboard
or the wall.
 Finally, you need to lay the bedspread, quilt or comforter on the bed and place
the decorator pillows over it.

 Hotel Bed Making Methods
 If you've ever been to a hotel or saw brochures of a hotel, you've probably noticed that
their bed making skills have been perfected. In many cases, hotel staff will train
housekeeping to make the beds a certain way in order to provide a comfortable and
beautiful looking environment for its guests. The skills aren't difficult by any means, and
can even be put to good use in the comfort of your own home.

1.
o 1

Remove all soiled or used bed linens.

o 2

Stretch a fitted sheet across the bed, being sure that the rounded edges with elastic
fit snugly on the four corners of the mattress.

o 3

Tuck any remaining part of the sheet under the mattress so that it will not come
loose when someone sits or lies on the bed.

o 4
 Spread a top sheet over the mattress. Keep both sides an even distance from the
floor. Tuck the bottom part of the sheet into the bed frame so that it does not hang
over.

o 5

Fold the top part of the sheet about 1 1/2 feet down.

o 6

Place the full blanket on top of the sheet. Spread it evenly across the bed, being
sure again that both sides are an even distance away from the ground. Tuck the
bottom part of the blanket into the bottom area of the bed frame, being sure it is
not hanging over. Fold the top part of the blanket down over the sheet about 1 1/2
feet.

o 7

Remove any wrinkles from the bed by gently stroking the wrinkles with the palm
of your hand.

o 8

Spread the comforter out evenly over the bed. Tuck the bottom area into the bed
frame, being sure that it is not hanging over. Make sure that both sides of the
comforter are an even distance from the ground. Fold the top part of the comforter
about 1 1/2 feet from the top of the bed.

o 9

Place two pillows barely above the fold on the comforter. The majority of the
pillows should be resting on the fitted sheet (not the blanket or the top sheet).

o 10

Slowly fold the comforter back toward the headboard of the bed over the pillows.
Be sure that there is a small crease below the pillows. Smooth out any wrinkles on
the bed by stroking them with the palm of your hand.

o 11

Place any remaining pillows on the bump where the two first pillows are under
the comforter
