Tips & Tricks: Organised bed linen

Do you have a linen closet at your house?

Well boo, so jealous.

My house doesn’t have one, so for the past four years we have kept our linen on the top shelf of one of the spare bedrooms. The only problem with the top shelf is that sometimes when you pull one thing out, other things fall down. Or when one of the pillow cases becomes separated from everything else, you end up taking out the entire wardrobe more items just to find the item you’re originally looking for. And before you know it, all your linen is on the floor looking like this:

So when I came across this simple way of organising bed linen on Pinterest, I just knew this was the solution I was looking for. (N.B and in the interest of not being sued the original source comes from Martha Stewart).

It’s such a simple, practical idea it’s funny that not everyone does this (or do you?) First, get all items of a sheet/quilt set together and fold them (you probably do this already). Get one of the pillowcases and put the entire set inside the pillowcase. Now all items belonging to this sheet/quilt set, are all together. Easy.

So my mess linen went from this:

Thanks Martha!
