Mum reveals SIMPLE HACK for putting fitted bed sheet
- Replies 10
For those of you who have fitted bed sheets at home, you're probably aware of the all-too-common problem when it comes to making your beds – figuring out which side of the sheet goes on which side of the bed!
It always seems to take multiple failed attempts to figure out which side is the correct one. We bet you’ve also experienced having the corner snap up in your face after placing it in the wrong direction.
Don't worry, folks. You're not alone, we've been there ourselves too!
Thankfully, it doesn't always have to be this way. A familiar name is here to show us a bed-making trick that will change your "sheet game" forever.
According to home hacks queen Carolina McCauley, doing this one simple trick will guarantee you a smooth, perfect-looking bed every single time!
The mum-of-two from Perth shared that when it comes to using a plain fitted sheet, it is important to always note that the corner with the tag always goes on the bottom right side (if you're facing the bed) of your mattress.
This method makes sure that the long side of the linen sheet is always fitted correctly, saving you from the hassle of re-inserting a corner every time it pops off.
To think that life could have been so much easier this whole time…

Carolina posted the bed-making hack on her TikTok account, which has already gained over 70,000 views in the span of just a few days.
Hundreds of impressed bed-makers commented on the clip, thanking her for the unbelievable simple trick.
One mum wrote: "So simple but going to save me so much time," while another added: "Wtf, I never knew this!"
"I've always had to label mine but I will use your tip from now on," said a third user.
Another mum shared a second bed-making hack to make the lives of many homeowners a whole lot easier. But instead of a trick, she said that she swears by a gadget to make her bed and sheets look neat and tidy.
Julianna, who regularly shares cleaning tips and home hacks on her Instagram page, said that she uses a bed-maker-slash-mattress-lifter that she bought from Amazon.
Now she no longer has to worry about straining her back whenever she needs to lift the mattress up and slide a fitted sheet on.
She calls the tool a "bedroom favourite", and she relies on it every time she has to make the bed in a rush.
