How to Make Soft Beds

A nice soft bed is wonderful to sink into after a long day. If your bed isn't currently as soft as you'd like it to be, there are some simple things you can do to make it as comfortable and luxurious as the beds at fine hotels. You'll find yourself looking forward to bedtime.
Instructions
1.Strip your bed base down to the bare mattress. Flip the mattress over.You should actually flip your mattress every other month to keep it from developing permanent depressions. Spray the mattress with Febreeze to freshen the fabric.
2.Shake the mattress pad to redistribute the down. Place the down-filled mattress pad on top of the mattress.
3.Put the cotton fitted sheet over the top of the mattress pad. Follow the fitted sheet with a flat sheet. Tuck the corners of the flat sheet underneath the mattress.
4.Insert the down-filled comforter into the cotton duvet. This can be tricky for large sizes like queen and king. To make it simpler, lay the duvet out on the floor. Fold the comforter into thirds. Insert the folded comforter into the duvet. Then unfold the comforter once it's inside the duvet. Place the comforter-filled duvet on the bed.
5.Put pillow cases on all four of the pillows. Stack the pillows neatly at the head of the bed. Fold the blanket or quilt and place it at the foot of the bed. If you take a nap during the day, use the blanket or quilt so you don't have to remake the bed.
