I just made mine for the first time in about a month. Time for a sheet change I think. Honestly, I'm lucky I found all my pillows.

Making a bed teaches discipline. Or at least I have read somewhere. Start with making your bed every morning. It adds structure into ones life. I have very little structure this last year. I use to make it every morning. I know my mom and husband are rolling in their graves. Mom always thought one should make a bed. Husband feared getting up in night to come back to a made bed. And now I live alone. But I do change my sheets regularly laugh

Get yourself a quilt...... so much easier to "make" than blankets.

My dad has a place up in Maine that he re-habbed from top to bottom. He put in the thermal coils for radient floor heat and now loves to call me and tell me all about how it's "warm as toast" up there. laugh laugh Very proud of himself, he is. Apprently, "heat" is a big-ticket item up in Maine.
grin grin

Gorgeous state though...bouquet

Easy for me, one sheet on the mattress and one on the bed but due to it being so warm here at nights, the top sheet is hardly ever used.

I never make my bed!

But I do change the linens sooner than a month laugh

And I used to be kind of crazy about the bed with eveything in place and not a wrinkle in the sheets, not anymore.

Someone had already made the bed before I purchased it. laugh Although I have made, created, a few new headboards, under the bed drawers. The sheets, linens, changed every week or so, and any attempt to fully, and neatly display the bedding is done when I change the sheets, or expecting company. rolling on the floor laughing Every morning the top cover only gets thrown in place so my black lab does not get dog hairs all over the sheets. drinking

I did when my husband was alive, now since being on my own, not every day. I do change the bedding though regularly, I love getting into a bed with fresh clean, cotton sheets.gnite

How anyone can get into an unmade bed is beyond me. I fix mine as soon as I get out of it each day. Linen changed every weekend.
