There’s nothing quite like climbing into a bed with crisp, neatly tucked sheets that rival those of a five-star hotel. But how do hotels achieve that perfect look, and how can you replicate it at home? Our professional cleaners at Hampton Hill Cleaning have mastered the art of bed-making, and here’s how you can too!
The first step to a perfectly made bed is clean, wrinkle-free sheets. Use cotton or linen bedding, and give them a good iron or tumble dry to remove any wrinkles before making the bed.
Hotel beds are famous for their tight, smooth corners. To achieve this, place the fitted sheet on first, then the flat sheet. Tuck in the bottom end of the sheet, and create a neat fold by pulling the sides tightly and tucking them underneath. Voilà—perfect hospital corners!
Hotels often use a combination of sheets, blankets, and comforters. Layer your bedding with a light blanket under the duvet for added texture and comfort. Fold the duvet at the foot of the bed for that extra hotel-style flair.
Fluff and smooth your pillows, ensuring they stand upright. Use pillow shams for decorative pillows and smooth pillowcases for those you sleep on. Arranging them in layers adds a touch of luxury to your bed.
For that final hotel-worthy touch, drape a bed runner or throw blanket across the foot of the bed. It’s both decorative and functional, giving your bed a polished, finished look.
