Episode Description:
In today’s episode of Decluttering Untangled, I dive into the often-overlooked chaos of bedding and share my best tips for organising it to make your life easier. From storage hacks and cleaning advice to practical solutions for physically challenging bedding tasks, I’m covering it all. Learn how to keep your duvets, pillows, and sheets under control and stop feeling overwhelmed by the mess in your linen cupboard.

Key Takeaways:

  • Duvet Hack for the Short & Petite: Use food bag clips to secure duvet corners while you wrestle them into covers.
  • Label Your Bedding: Mark your duvets with “S” (short) and “L” (long) to avoid confusion when making the bed.
  • Best Storage Options: Consider Ikea DIMPA bags for easy, moisture-proof storage.
  • Declutter Old Bedding: Donate old bedding to pet shelters, Baby Basics,  textile recycling, or charities but be sure to check their requirements first.
  • How Many Sets Do You Really Need? Aim for three sets per bed: one in use, one in the wash, and one spare.
  • Kids’ Bed Accident Hack: Layer waterproof sheets with bedding for quick middle-of-the-night changes.
  • Organise with Pillowcases: Store bedding sets inside one pillowcase to keep everything together.
  • Storing Tips: Keep bedding close to the bed it’s for (like under-bed storage) and add a laundry sheet to keep them smelling fresh.

Final Thought:
Changing bedding regularly isn’t always realistic for everyone—especially if you’ve got physical limitations like me. Don’t stress yourself if you're not doing it as often as you'd like. The goal is to declutter and simplify to make life easier, not harder.
