Making your bed is more than just a daily task. It’s a way to give your bedroom a fresh look and contribute to a good night’s sleep. In collaboration with sleep expert Robby Busscher, we share valuable tips for making and changing your bed in this article. It seems simple, but the right techniques and choices can make a big difference – and save a lot of frustration!

Why making your bed is important

The way you make your bed affects the look of your bedroom and your sleep quality. A tidy bed creates a calm and relaxing environment. Changing your bed is also an essential task to keep it fresh and hygienic. By making your bed daily and changing it regularly, you prevent the build-up of dust and dirt, which is important for your health.

Tips for making your bed

Nothing beats slipping into a well-made bed in the evening, but it does require a small effort in the morning. We share some tips for making your bed, so it’s always the shining centrepiece of your bedroom:

  • Start with the mattress: Ensure your mattress is properly aligned and not hanging off the bed. This helps your bed look neat.
  • Arrange the bedding neatly: Pull your duvet open to air out the bed or make it up neatly, smoothing the duvet cover by hand.
  • Fluff the pillows: Pillows can make a difference. Shake them well and place them neatly back on the bed.
  • Use simple accessories: A simple throw can instantly make your bed look stylish without much effort.

Tips for changing your bed

Making and changing your bed go hand in hand. Changing your bed is the first step to a fresh-looking and feeling bed. Here are some practical tips for changing your bed:

  • Wash your bedding regularly: Put your bedding in the wash every two weeks. Increase the frequency if you sweat at night or have allergies, to keep your bed fresh.
  • Use the right wash cycle: Wash your duvet on a 60°C cycle for stubborn dirt. This ensures bacteria and allergens are thoroughly removed, keeping your bed clean and hygienic.
