The roll up

To make it easier getting your duvet into your duvet cover, try lying the empty duvet cover, inside out, on the floor or the bed. Next, lay the duvet on top of the cover and match up the corners – you should then find which side the duvet cover opening is and move to the opposite side. Fold down the duvet and the duvet cover working down to the opening, once you find it – bunch the side edges together and pull the cover only over the sides. Once this has been done one side at a time, you should have a roll that you can pull out revealing a perfectly done duvet!

Corners

Another great way to get your duvet within the cover, is to gather the duvet so that is scrunched into a shorter long shape, then take the duvet cover opening and fit the scrunched duvet into the cover. Hold tight and flap the duvet hard to release the gathered shape and reveal a perfectly covered duvet.

Stretch and shake

For more of a work out, try putting the duvet cover over your body like a ghost – then take one corner in each hand and stretch up until the corners are even, grab hold of each corner of the duvet and gently ease yourself out of the sheet and match up the bottom corners. Now you’ve given your arms a work out and a stretch and finished with a covered duvet.

Partner up

Larger duvet covers such as king size or queen size, will be much easier to change if you have someone helping you. Each of you can take a side and make sure the corners are matched up, work together to bring the cover down over the duvet and then bring it over the middle to close the buttons or poppers.
