How to Put a Duvet Cover?

Putting on a duvet cover can be a challenging task, but there are several ways to make the process easier and more manageable. Let's explore some effective tips.

Traditional Method

Here are the steps to cover a duvet cover with ties using the traditional method:

Step 1: Prepare the Bedding

Lay the duvet or comforter flat on the bed in the correct orientation, making sure the sheets have been neatly laid out with the corner pieces facing up.

Step 2: Place the Duvet Cover

Turn the duvet cover over so that the inside is facing outwards and lay it flat on top of the duvet or comforter, making sure that the four corners of the duvet cover line up with the corners of the comforter and that the opening of the duvet cover is on the side of the bed.

Step 3: Tie to Secure

Secure the corner ties of the duvet cover to the corner tabs of the comforter or duvet, making sure everything is lined up and attached.

Step 4: Flip the Duvet Cover

Reach through the opening of the duvet cover, grab the top corner of the opposite corner, and flip the entire comforter over with the cover in place. Make sure the comforter is facing out and the opening of the cover is on the side of the foot of the bed.

Step 5: Close the Opening

Leave the opening of the duvet cover open, then tuck the remaining duvet inside the cover, and finally fasten the zipper or button to ensure that the duvet does not slip out of the cover.

Step 6: Finishing

Shake the duvet cover to distribute the filling inside and achieve the desired fluffiness.Place the duvet cover and comforter back on the bed, flatten the bottom corners, and zipper or button the cover.

Rolling "Burrito or California Roll" Method

The California roll method (also known as the burrito roll method) is a popular and effective way to easily cover a down comforter. Below is a detailed step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Prepare the Duvet Cover

• Turn the duvet cover over so that the inside is facing out.
• Lay the duvet cover flat on the bed, making sure the opening is at the end of the bed.

Step 2: Place the Duvet

• Lay the duvet flat on top of the duvet cover, making sure that the corners of the core line up with the corners of the cover.
• If both the duvet cover and duvet cover have corner straps or buckles, they should be bound or buckled at this point to ensure they are secured.

Step 3: Start Rolling up

• Starting on the opposite side of the duvet cover opening (the side at the head of the bed), roll the duvet and cover together tightly, like a large burrito.
• Make sure to roll tightly to avoid the bedding shifting as you roll.

Step 4: Tuck in the Duvet Cover

• When rolling to the end of the bed, flip the ends of the rolled section into the opening of the comforter cover.
• Make sure each corner of the comforter is tucked into the corresponding corner of the coverlet.

Step 5: Unroll and Adjust

• Carefully unroll the entire structure towards the head of the bed.
• Once unfolded, the duvet will be naturally inside the duvet cover, at this point tighten and adjust the corners and edges of the duvet cover to ensure even distribution.
• Close the zipper or fasten the buttons of the duvet cover to ensure that the duvet does not slip out of the cover.

Step 6: Final Finishing

Other Methods

Using a Clothesline

If you have outdoor space and a clothesline, then this step may revolutionize your bed-changing habits.

• Step 1: Hang the duvet cover on the clothesline so that the opening at the top remains open.

If you don't have a clothesline, you might also consider using clips or rubber bands to help cover the comforter cover. Here are the steps to using this method:

• Step 1: Open the duvet cover and lay it flat on the bed, making sure the opening of the cover is at the foot of the bed.

Clip the clips or rubber bands to the opening of the duvet cover to ensure that the duvet is securely fastened to the inside of the cover.
• Step 4: Hold the top corners of the duvet cover, then gently shake the duvet or comforter to evenly fill the inside of the cover.
• Step 5: Once filled, remove the clips or rubber bands and then shake the duvet cover to ensure the filling is evenly distributed.
