How to Fold a Fitted Sheet⎢Martha Stewart's Best Folding Hacks

[@chadphriday197]

"Wash them, dry them and put them right back on the bed." Brilliant.

[@omahabigbill2789]

Exactly what I thought after she said that!

[@marilynharris4831]

Thats what I do to avoid folding. In the linen closet top sheets are very neatly folded fitted sheets are balled basically

[@marilynharris4831]

Balled up

[@catherinekilgour2563]

I only have to deal with folding fitted sheets twice a year doing it this way. Change of seasons here so the sheets need to be changed over and I'm here watching the video, so fingers crossed it doesn't end up twisted.

[@patiencekapfunde1731]

I totally agree😄

[@cindy1274]

I love how martha helps her not be embarrassed.

[@benisrood]

Martha is a SSS-tier pro

[@anthonyxuereb792]

Martha was selfish by hogging the camera and staying in the middle, Martha should have let Pat get close to the woman doing demo. Pat was at a great disadvantage being so far removed.

[@socks4070]

I love how encouraging Martha is and doesn't want that girl to be embarrassed even though she got confused. Very sweet.

[@jillywells1232]

I love this and Martha's comment about washing, drying your sheets and putting them right back on your bed - brilliant!❤️❤️❤️

[@nancyamato686]

Martha is very respectful of her guests and viewers. 😀

[@AnaMaria101010]

I love the lady that had problems folding the sheet; she's adorable. :)

[@jagss]

That's me every time. Lol

[@Mags765]

She was adorable...i just shoove them in my linen closet. There are more important things in the world than having my sheets neatly folded😁

[@jenlib11]

This made me giggle. :) I love that even with help she still got the sheet twisted. It's so easy to do that! AND I love that Martha was honest about losing patience, but also very sweet in saying that all people from New Jersey are intelligent. That was nice of her to say. *No, I'm not from New Jersey. I just liked how she made the woman feel more at ease about no getting it right the first time.

Here after Katya mentioned it, and I was not disappointed lol

[@dianejohnson9904]

I remember watching Martha showing this from all those years ago. I was extremely impressed. I absolutely love Martha. Never be embarrassed about striving for perfection. I certainly never mastered this!

[@robertprieto2730]

I love Martha! Her candor says it all--no fuss, no muss--away with the marriage due to frustration of folding fitted sheets!

[@restlessmindcreations5679]

I'm a stay at home dad so I'd just like to say..OMG THANK YOU!

[@jennyn5692]

The "blob" the lady at the beginning brought out looked way better than what I can do.

[@xuelaxi1652]

right!?

[@Rhaspun]

It looked like a small pillow.

[@PhilSalyers]

I was seriously just thinking about this today while doing laundry. And, like the home-guru that she is, Miss Martha prevailed. Love, love, love this video. Epic timing!

[@noelleboehm1142]

I love to learn from Martha Stewart. Her videos are very educational.

[@letisfan]

These ladies are so cute, Martha's comment about her divorce being all about the sheets, is sooooo funny. I love it...I just toss mine into the linen closet and set neatly folded flat sheets on top and push them down until you can't see the lumps. LOL

[@jstarrny04]

I do the EXACT same thing!!! No one sees them in there anyway!!!🤣🤣🤣

[@totallyteresa100]

"It's why I got divorced!" Lol. That's awesome. Martha is such a good sport, and is consistently amusing without ever being nasty to anyone. We don't watch television in our home, but if I could order a cable subscription that had only Martha on it, I WOULD.

[@lenac3587]

Awww... Martha is so kind in making her guest feel secure and comforted. It is abit tricky for a first timer.

[@GMaul84]

Katya sent me here.

[@diannalevinemiller1480]

that is exactly what I do!!! Wash them, dry them and put them right back on the bed!!! I change the color of sheets 4x a year, Spring color is Mocha, Summer is Sage, Fall is Gold, Winter is Burgundy. 1 comforter for Fall and Winter because sheets match both colors in comforter, Spring comforter has patchwork of Light Sage, Taupe, and Ivory, and Summer is a light weight quilt of Sage and Ivory, .and like the guest who suggested this test, I too and fitted impaired , I fold them in three sloppy sections and roll 'em up and stick 'em in the closet where nobody see how sloppy my linen closet is, and of course I don't care about that. Now clothes closet is carefully organized of course, so the clothes have minimal wrinkles that are not noticeable enough to iron.

[@zoeemiko8149]

This is how I fold my fitted sheets! I love how they fold into a smooth little square. I place my sheets & 1 folded pillowcase inside the second pillowcase for each set. Easy to keep all the sets of sheets organized.

[@Pepper5655]

my mother taught me how to fold sheets when I was a kid and have never had the problems others have had. Its always been my pet peeve when I cleaned houses when I found their linen closets such a mess with sheets all jumbled up. I actually fold my fitted sheets and then fold them into their matching top sheet and pillow cases so I do not have to hunt for matches. I will have to make a video one day cause I have never seen anyone else do it my way, and they look so nice in the cabinet together.

[@DLoWinter]

My mom does it like that too. :) Very neat.

[@bluegardenia29]

You two make me sick...my closet looks gross I am totally stupid when it comes to folding fitted sheets.

[@DLoWinter]

bluegardenia29 Thanks for the enlightening comment.

[@Pepper5655]

bluegardenia29 Darlin just fit all four corners together and tri fold it, then tri fold again the other direction and wha la a nice neat lil bundle. then four corner your flat sheet and tri fold it too then place your fitted bundle in the middle of it and add the pillow cases and fold it up in like a roll. I do not have video capabilities but I can do a video of still pics. maybe I should make a sheet folding video myself.

[@jenniferggreer457]

you should do a video, because in this one, they either edited out, or switched to the wrong angle or switched to someone in the audience laughing at EXACTLY the parts where i have trouble.

[@lykri3350]

I could not figure this out since it was so new an idea to me. But I came back and watched again and now I do it all the time. I am so proud of myself!

[@pamelanorthup7991]

My grandmother worked in the laundry at the university hospital here in OK when fitted sheets came on the market, she showed her daughters how to fold them(, 6 daughters) I was 9 or 10 at the time, iam now 69 years old. So for many years I have been folding my fitted sheets , the way Martha Stewart showed.

[@dianedemartini9657]

its much easier if you fit two corners (as shown in video) but then rather than add the third then fourth corners, you do the same thing to the third and fourth corner as you did with the first two, then combine all corners. That's the way I was taught at the young age of 10. Been doing it that way ever since and I'm 55 now

[@DDios-ih9de]

Hope you’re still reading your KZbin replies.....

[@llamalover02]

My husband is a dearheart that will help me with any chore I need help with. Except folding fitted sheets. His refusal and deep-rooted hatred for this one thing is the most adorable thing ever.

I never knew how funny and charismatic this woman is!

[@anyatrioli3734]

This singlehandedly saved my 2020. Thank you!

[@JoyGrantinWabasca]

OMG the way she is explaining it is actually confusing! I have taught countless people to fold fitted sheets and never how she did it. I didn't even understand it!

[@micap1121]

😂 it feels to me like she just want to keep that secret to herself and make fun of us "the impaired" 😂

[@creoledyme]

thank you God!! I am OCD so I take forever trying to fold sheet good enough so I don't end up throwing it away out of frustration. other videos go to fast so I'm glad the woman was having trouble because it allowed to me to keep up. thanks for this video.

[@adc12889]

are you kidding me haha, there is nothing wrong with the way that lady folded her sheet!

[@o0LoveLove0o]

that's what I thought. .... mines is terrible lol I thought she did great on her own...

[@Hedgemist]

Nope. Life's too short. Just roll it up and shove it in the drawer. As long as it's clean and fresh that's all that matters.

[@49lucky]

Yeah no kidding that's why my closet is full and I have 2 fitted sheets lol

[@sweetcanada17]

I like to save space wherever I can in our basement suite.

[@joannl3895]

Haha so true

[@MariaMongillo]

Pat Patterson is adorable! How is it that Martha is more likable than ever before?

[@robertblakey1937]

Watched a number of videos on how to fold a fitted sheet. All of them have one thing in common: they all use single size sheets! Well....it’s easy to do it with that size...but try to do it with a queen or king size sheet. You’ll just end up doing some quick folding and shoving it in the closet, drawer, or storage container and getting on with your life😁😁😁😁

[@tgd9343]

Anyone notice how Martha gave the other lady HER twisted sheet, almost like, “Here, YOU deal with this one!” A clever woman for sure

[@fontana613]

This is real nice and all for crisp cotton, full size sheets. How about showing a stretched out jersey sheet for a California king!

[@lhawkes5]

I've been folding my fitted sheets like this for a couple of years now. Much easier method than how I used to do it and looks so much nicer. The lady who couldn't follow along totally cracked me up!

[@melissalester2308]

I looked this up after Katya talked about it on the pod

[@freddyvelasquez4168]

Ms. Martha never disappoints.

[@CrazyTheySaid]

omg she makes such a simple task ten times more complicated than it is!

[@Jibbie49]

My husband was in the military for 23 yrs. & I visited him on an Aircraft Carrier where there was 5,000 men. The place was spotless clean, & bunks were made. Anyone who says a man can't clean just needs to look at how young guys do it in the military.

[@candismiller9102]

watched this and still didn't get it.. what a mess

[@Pepper5655]

hun ur folding the fitted sheet in half and putting the fitted corner over ur fist, then fold it in half again and then all four fitted corners are all on one hand and you just straighten then sheet up so it lays neatly in that L shape, then tri fold them like Martha did. I put my fitted sheet in the tri folded flat sheet and the pillow cases so my set stays together and that look so nice on my shelf in the linen closet.

[@TubeMeChannel]

[@elizabethwhite2151]

This is a perfect example of why I love Martha Stewart. My name is Elizabeth and I am fitted sheet impaired. 😂😂😂

I'm good at folding fitted sheets and the whole set. "You can't have a nice linen closet if you put that blob in there" I wish I heard Martha Stewart say that decades ago, I would have got on the ball much sooner lol.

You've figured it out now, Angie. That's what matters. 😊

The only video I can understand completely and got how to do it immediately was here on KZbin-look up “Bed , Bath, and Beyond How to Fold a Fitted Sheet” video. The way she explains it is so easy to follow and understandable. It’s also only 2 minutes long. My fitted sheets look so nice now!

[@patsmith5947]

I love this, fitted sheets are great on the bed but impossible to store in the linen closet. Of course Martha does it perfect, everything she does is perfect.

[@benisrood]

It's her brand and she has absolutely mastered it. It's very impressive

[@andreac8342]

I messed up somewhere during the instructions but my fitted sheet still came out neater than usual. I’m satisfied.

[@surgeseraphim7741]

Ive been on this Earth 21 years. I have been taught to fold a fitted sheet countless times and still fail. This helped me at least get started. I still suck, and I probably will forget again, but I know I can just come back and watch it again

I wish I had the time and patience for this. My Mother irons and folds her sheets like this every week.

"Martha Stewart called my sheet folding pitiful then laughed at me. I've never been happier in my life!" lol I love Martha. She is a role model for women, maybe minus the insider trading, but seriously? How many men get away with stuff? She is kind of impervious to her own scandal. Teflon Martha!

[@lindseylarkin2432]

Finally got it!!! Only bad thing with this is they kept showing the lady messing up. Less of that, more of the demo

[@RodneyRocK]

I was following along for about 3 minutes. Then my brain exploded after the third flip into fold step.....

[@anngepp8491]

I totally agree that her explanation is very convoluted. Once you have two corners together on one hand, it would be so much easier to say run your other hand to the corners at the other end of the sheet so that basically have the sheet folded in half with one set of corners over each hand, and THEN do the last wrap (transfer to the other hand) to get all the corners together. And finally lay down the partially folded sheet down, and finish.

[@RodneyRocK]

Yes! So very convoluted, made easier by your much simpler explanation!

[@TheStereotypeA]

@@anngepp8491 That woman was a terrible teacher. Six years later, however, *you* are still helping people with your explanation! I have a folded fitted sheet now! Thank you so much!

[@laracroft1063]

All I got was a corner in each hand🤔

[@milliehicks7436]

This wasn't helpful. Martha's way way much better..."wash them, dry them, and put them right back on the bed." Lol

[@Valerie923]

As a "home economics" teacher I can improve Martha's technique. First step put the OUTSIDE out and put one corner over the other side so the inside is out. There are 2 reasons. 1) so if the sheet drops the inside gets dusty and 2) so the size tag is showing and you can know what size sheet it is before opening it. You are welcome!

[@laskaweiss]

I'm here because of Katya

That's extremely helpful. Martha Stewart was so funny but the other lady teaching seemed impatient & mean. Even tho I got it right away, not everyone runs like that. She needs to calm down & be patient when teaching.

Exactly! That lady is supposed to be helpful, not condescending! It's almost like she was TRYING to humiliate that poor woman. Martha was doing a good job reassuring her.

[@julial3758]

[@VoxVulgus]

What a really bad demo. 4 minutes to show a 15 second operation, and even then its explained very badly and the camera spends all its time on the person who is doing it wrong and doesn't show the correct way to do it. Also they keep mentioning that its "easy to get it twisted" but doesn't explain how to avoid getting its twisted - which "side" of the corner goes over the hand, etc. Just confirms my opinion that amateurs on youtube are much better at explaining anything than daytime TV.

[@carol_jackson]

You make this so hard. I just use my bed instead of hanging the sheet from my hands. Maybe I should make a video 😄

[@mangot589]

I actually for a long time only had one set of sheets per bed. It forced me to just do it, and also not have the dreaded dirty sheets just hanging around in the laundry. I do have two now, but then I have the dreaded dirty sheets once again. I think I’m going to go back to one again. It also clears up the 🥵 linen closet.

[@Intocable8306]
