Your post reminds me of when my husband and I first got married; our house was ransacked and it took us more than an hour to notice :o!

I'm on my way to try it right now. <br /><br />And I was soooo impressed with the difference your new knowledge has made in the look of your linen closet!

I agree with you, folding fitted sheets is NOT and NEVER will be one of my biggest challenges...I don't care if they take up too much space folded wrong...properly folded sheets are not anywhere near high on my list of things that cause me grief or annoyance...now if someone could tell me how to stop the dogs from shedding all over the place ( short of not having dogs) or how to get more time in a 24 hour day without losing sleep..THAT would free me up to actually give a care about how to fold fitted sheets!<br /><br />However, I did find that video very enlightening, and now I do know how to properly fold fitted sheets. Thank-you for this educational post!And hey, looks like you have a new hobby you can share with others, or help yourself find employment in department stores...folding T-shirts.KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834389037350420100.post-4173383566919238352009-11-12T22:00:43.773-06:002009-11-12T22:00:43.773-06:00I am laughing out loud!

That is the way I fold sheets for a twin bed, but when I get to those king sized sheets, my arms just aren't long enough, so my k.s. sheets look like yours in the linen closet. I've got to get that t shirt folding thing down though!

I came across that video long ago and I still can't get it to work right - I get my left and right hands mixed up and I give up! And fitted sheets were made to be rolled up blobs in linen cupboards - that's another thing I haven't mastered.<br /><br />Ok - I will watch these videos and let you know how I go!<br /><br />Cheers - JoolzJoolzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490462580345458546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834389037350420100.post-56383269133714549832009-11-12T14:08:39.528-06:002009-11-12T14:08:39.528-06:00There is one thing that I learned in life.

No matter how you fold a fitted sheet, it still ends up in the same place.<br /><br />So, here's to messily folded sheets and shirts.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17149490578032892476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834389037350420100.post-47580386534212075292009-11-12T12:48:12.880-06:002009-11-12T12:48:12.880-06:00Oh, I forgot the thing about fitted sheets. My mo...Oh, I forgot the thing about fitted sheets. My mother developed heart trouble when I was 3 and she was 43. She took a class where they were taught to do household chores in a simpler, less stressful way, and one of them was folding sheets. Alas, I've forgotten the method and Mama has Alzheimer's, but maybe my sister remembers. Maybe it's the same as your video, which I will watch now.<br /><br />One last thing about housekeeping: about 30 years ago a friend of mine gave me her description of a true friend - someone who would come clean out your closets after you die and would still love you anyway.carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04346285464750146290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834389037350420100.post-90094210057882129752009-11-12T12:44:09.562-06:002009-11-12T12:44:09.562-06:00Thank you so much for your honesty about housekeep...Thank you so much for your honesty about housekeeping. I already feel better and not-so-alone. Those pictures of perfect houses on some of the blogs I love are actually depressing to me. Although I don't have the excuse of a busy career or job, I do have minor health considerations: arthritis and fibromyalgia. Never a bundle of energy, I have even less now. I would love to have a clean house, but I want more out of life than that and I have no desire to devote all my energy to it.<br /><br />Did someone say they love books?! The magazine collection has actually been reduced, but some of them must stay for now; books tend to find a permanent home with me.<br /><br />Do you do paper crafts?carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04346285464750146290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834389037350420100.post-13472749618288957052009-11-12T11:04:51.039-06:002009-11-12T11:04:51.039-06:00Thank goodness you can't do everything perfect...Thank goodness you can't do everything perfectly; I'm already envious of your education and profession! I tried that shirt fold deal and it works! AND I've been wondering for years how to fold fitted sheets! I just kind of rolled them up and smashed them up into the linen shelf!I can't wait to show my family how to do that. It's been a long time since I was able to teach them anything. I think I might put together a class at church!
