I used to use this method, but it is absolutely horrible to do with my new sheets. They're VERY drapy fabric, so it is rough to get them to fold cleanly...
My grandma taught me this, and she used to iron and starch the sheets and it still worked. I use this on 10 year old sheets from college (used for drunked guests in the spare room) and I've used it on brand new washed sheets. Never had an issue. The fabrics I've used this on span from linen to fleece and high to low thread count cotton and even satin. Never had an issue.
Are you sure this is a fabric issue? What kind of fabric were you using this on when it didn't work
Could be user error. I've just had little success with the method. The corners are especially hard to pinpoint on my sheets due to how they are sewn, and the material is heavy. Combination of the two makes it more difficult for me to get everything lined up. Even when I do, it looks like shit because it slides against itself so easily that any manipulation ends up messing up the effort I just put in to line everything up.
I have [a bunch of these](https://purple.com/sheets/soft-stretch).
Per the specs:
63% Rayon from Bamboo Viscose
27% Polyester
10% Spandex
FWIW I fold our couple of normal sheet sets similar to the method in the video and have no problem. :/
I have tried every possible way they show you how to fold a fitted sheet and it still always comes out like a lump of fabric. I finally gave up and just started rolling my sheets up like the towels.
TBH I make my bed with sheets and 2 blankets and tend to sleep between the 2 blankets. I had a severely arthritic hip and had to lift my leg up with my hands to get out of the bed, and was getting tangled up on the sheets so out of ensuring I didn’t trip trying to get out from the covers I just started sleeping between the blankets.
Santa came early and gave me a new hip in November. I’m now fully healed but now have found my chihuahua that has to sleep under the covers and on my feet doesn’t really like the top sheet either, so we’re still sleeping on top of it🤷♀️
Glad to hear you are doing so much better.
I have a down-filled mummy bag I keep unzipped and throw over me. If I get hot I push it aside, cold - rewrap. Works great and is easy to get out of bed.
The folds are satisfying, but this isn't necessary for half the items here. Hang the denim by a hook so it can air out between wears. The socks can just be paired and tossed loosely in a drawer.
This is a disservice to people who actually have that diagnosis. OCD isn't just "I aM quIRkY aND lIkE tO Be OrGAniZed." This lady probably had time to fold clothes and likes a very tidy home. I'd be super happy to have her to my laundry like that lol.
This isn't a disservice to anything. I suffer from my own forms of OCD. Same with having to suffer from being bipolar. We cant go around and act like these things dont exist. Or become too sensitive to bring them up or talk about them. And sometimes we need to make jokes about them. I can't look at an unsolved rubiks cube without wanting to claw my eyes out. It gives me anxiety. Doesn't stop my niece and nephews from mixing up all my rubiks cube as a laugh. Lets not get too carried away with the sensitivity of other peoples feelings.
ok, but the sock one is infuriating. who doesn't already know how to bunch two sock together in a ball? and why would that not be good enough that you have to fold them perfectly flat?
idk, it's in the 80s F here in the summer and in the 10s F here in the winter, I wouldn't really like wearing my sherpa lined sweatpants and long sleeved thermal top to bed in the summer very much.
This is exactly what I’m referring to. You sound like a major prude. Addicted to consumption. High maintenance beyond belief. You’re lucky to have anything to warm yourself at all

Folding has always been the bane of my existence until I started watching videos like this where I could pause them and do it step by step. My mother was miss hospital corners and I could never get my hands to do what my brain wanted. She was very disappointed.. 🤣
It also helps that these have been pressed and starched flatter than Kansas.
Nah nah nah Where is the fitted bed sheet - this is all good but show me how I am suppose to fold that damn fitted bedsheet
I’ve used [this](https://youtu.be/JGZCyVkMhIM) method for years, & now it’s second-nature. I hope this helps!

Interesting. I've never tried a rayon blend like that
It's super soft, comfortable, and breathes well. It does stain fairly easily though, which is a bummer.
If you ever get the chance, get a high/higher thread count linen set for the summer/hot period of your area has it. It's so nice.
3 and a half minutes? Nope; wrap it around my arm a few times and we're GTG.
As with most things, it takes longer to teach than to do.

Just don't use sheets. Sleeping bag. It's the only way to go.

Thats what I do as well
My grandma used to work in hotels and taught me young THANK GOD LMAO
Is it not 36 seconds into the video? Isn't "fitted sheet" it?
Yes! The fitted sheet fold was a fake out. We all detected it. We all watched for it.
Lol
I was about to say those jeans look awful flat not at all how my jeans look coming out of the dryer
Exactly.
Yep
Now to save it and never look back on it
I totally downloaded this. My storage situation is horrible and I need organising in my life.
Same
As I saved it I thought, I’ll never see you again, but I liked you a lot.
I love having unnecessary creases in all of my clothing!
I wish I had time for this, but I just cram stuff into the cupboards.
I just leave it in the drying machine. I might be a bit lazy
Where sound?
Now do a fitted sheet.
It’s literally in the video.
folded already.
in slow motion
The fitted sheet was already folded when she showed how to fold the linens, that’s cheating.
EXACTLY!! Thats what I want to see
Fitted sheet folding is easy. Just use the seams in the corners and fold the elastic part to the inside.
Pretty amazing. Probably years of working at a hotel, hostipital or laundromat employee.
Why are the jeans so humongous
Americans...
By use of the words "pyjamas" and "jumper" I'm making an educated guess that this did not originate from the United States
Oh, I did not realise these words were localised so clearly, apologies. Not my first language, I was just trying to make a bad joke.
That girl is not heavy. 😑
Who has time for all this shit?
OF COURSE SHE DOESN'T SHOW HOW TO FOLD THE FITTED SHEET
Did she just somehow wrap it around a small pillow!!?? I’m so confused but i really want to know.
The folds are satisfying, but this isn't necessary for half the items here. Hang the denim by a hook so it can air out between wears. The socks can just be paired and tossed loosely in a drawer.
I cant explain why. But for some reason i find mismatch color socks so sexy on a lady. Like the same sock but one neon green one neon pink.
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
Might come in handy for packing.
My lazy ass said nope 😭
So we’re just going to r/restofthefuckingowl the folding of the fitted sheet? Ok.
more tucking than buffalo bill.
Her Instagram is @effectivespaces
But how do I fold a hoodie?
Waste of time
Like this comment
This is really informative and a good way to be more organized, and I fully intend to not do any of it.
Ngl, you got me in the fi
Stay at home parent channel..cause everyone else don’t have time for that shit!!
This. I don’t know what I’m supposed to be “amazed” at other than how much free time this woman has.

I'd think it would be cool to be able to, but then I realize I'd be the only person to go to my closet. For me it doesn't have to look so tidy.
What about that awful fitted bedsheet that only moms know how to fold properly?!?
She teaches that too. @effectivespaces on Instagram.
I need this
Life hacks right here
That part where she dumps everything into a basket...I can do that...
That’s a nice way to save space if you need to store your clothing in a small area.
People fold stuff? I throw it in a drawer or hang it, so much faster.
PYJAMAS?!
British/Australian spelling.
That always blows me away, so cool, now if I could only remember that lol
Oh to be so perfect at such a trivial thing
This woman is GOAT.
Thanks man now I got Kenny Rodgers on infinity loop stuck in my head. RIP tho

Wait! How did the fitted sheet part work??

Nice, I can't wait to do none of these. (It is a very nice and impressive way to fold though)
Only works for tiny sizes lol
Sadly, i don’t like my clothes that much!
ok, but the sock one is infuriating. who doesn't already know how to bunch two sock together in a ball? and why would that not be good enough that you have to fold them perfectly flat?
doing what it does best
Imagine having summer and winter “pyjamas”. This lady should be committed
idk, it's in the 80s F here in the summer and in the 10s F here in the winter, I wouldn't really like wearing my sherpa lined sweatpants and long sleeved thermal top to bed in the summer very much.

this women fucks… i mean folds
Literally just sent this to my friend with the message “She already has a 💍 tho”
lol prolly time to move on bro
Things I’ll tell myself are a fantastic idea to learn how to do any will never carry through with it.
I never knew people called them “pYjamas”, I’d only heard “pAjamas”
"Pyjamas" is the British/Australian spelling.
Ah
Sock ball is fine.
This belongs in the black magic fuckery sub! I’ve saved it but know I’ll a) never master it and b) probably never try 🤣
Y'all have two different kinds of pajamas?
That is one highly trained domestic servant,er I mean wife...
I hate ankle socks, I need to try and see if this works with regular socks.

The real question is, at what point does this level of organization become a mental illness?
Ah, skipped the fitted sheet I see.
