Question Do you have a certain way that you fold your fitted sheets?

I get so frustrated when it comes to folding fitted sheets, it's like they have a mind of their own and never go how you want them to fold!

Have you ever had complications over folding your fitted sheets neatly (especially to tuck in the elastic edges)?

Check out this article: Living Room - How To - Fold A Fitted Sheet

Do you fold them however?

or

Are you able to do the neat folding tricks to them?

I fold them I know not very good but it works and I end up putting the sets in a pillow case so I feel it doesnt really matter

I just fold them however. I guess I never really worried about my sheets wrinkeling. Putting the whole set in the pillowcase is a great idea

I fold them Martha Stewart style. I can't explain it, but I watched her do it on her show. Of course it doesn't turn out as well as she does it, but it works ok. I am not to worried about it being real neat. I think I only have 2 sheet sets for each bed.

I DO care and have always wanted to fold them neatly, but no matter how hard I try, they look like a stinkin' mess! LOL

No, I just fold -- it probably isn't real pretty but that is just the way that it is.

I do remember in high school that my BFF's mother use to have her iron their entire families bedsheets! I still don't understand that.

I usually wash the sheets and put them right back on the bed, we do have 2 sets for every bed so on the rare occasion that they don't go right back on the bed I roll them up and put them in one of the pillow cases.
