How To Put On A DUVET COVER The EASY WAY

[@Adrasteia213]

First time duvet owner here, and I was ready to throw myself into traffic after fighting with the stupid thing. You saved what lingering sanity I have left, thank you

[@JanHowell]

Thank you. You are so welcome

[@1flute23922]

Thank you! My 1st time ever doing a duvet and cover. Little did I know I wasn't mentally prepared. 😆 After everything came out of washer/dryer I laid it all on my bed and stared at it for 5 minutes trying to strategize. I thought I had it, began then my brain got confused and I wanted to cry so I searched youtube. It was easy peasy with your instruction! 🙌

[@JanHowell]

So glad it was helpful!

[@paulineserpe6300]

🤣I know i did the same thing! Why is this so emotional for us?! I bought it for my daughter after trying real hard to convince her not to get one. But the duvet cover was the only option in her style. I always heard they were a nightmare. So, i was really hesitant. The first time I did it, it took me 30 min. to watch a vid and try like 4 times. It was the California roll method. I somehow managed to finally fit it. Then I had to wash it😩 This time I watched this vid and well I said it on my comment. It worked perfectly. with no sweat and took maybe 10 min.

[@paulineserpe6300]

Ha! Just saw your comment was from a year ago🤷

[@elnagrove5155]

At a stage I was inside the cover this morning but now it's done - I'm Exhausted but ready for winter next year.

[@auntraemazzella1604]

Considered there’s no opening or the cover(s) I ordered from TEMU. MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE!!!! NEVER AGAIN FROM THIS COMPANY!!🤬😡

[@Avaaaalicious]

she literally just saved me so much sweat and stress trying to change my duvet cover what a queen xxxx

[@JanHowell]

wonderful

[@evelynsmith7622]

Corner to corner and pull through is the best way for me and so much easier than the burrito roll!

[@sohabati]

Eureka. 70 years old and finally mastered putting on a large heavy duvet cover. Did it in minutes. Thank you

[@JanHowell]

Wonderful

[@SamUndJet]

Thank you for solving this conundrum. The second method worked best for us. Our duvet cover’s opening only spans the center 1/3 of the end, so we needed the instructions to insert hand to inside corner of duvet, grab corner, stuff the jelly roll, then unroll. It worked great, though we don’t know why, as we lack advanced degrees in physics.

[@JanHowell]

Glad it helped

[@SURFERGRL72RAKM]

Lol, I have the very same problem 😅 Going to try this tomorrow, fingers crossed 🤞

[@sueyach1]

Grabbing the tops of the insert while the cover was inside out even after I had tied the corner loops DID work, although, I too do not understand how. Thank you!

[@angelaspain2001]

Oh my goodness I've been a housekeeper for 10 years and the duvets I'm dealing with now this new hotel are so heavy you literally just saved my life and I'm tiny but this will probably take loads of stress physically off of me thank you so much for your video 🤗💗💗💗

[@JanHowell]

So glad this was helpful.

[@howardclauser7663]

I watched 3 other videos on this subject. Yours, Jan, was the clearest and easiest to understand. After watching this one, I was finally successful. Thanks!

[@tnerB26]

Same.

[@FUDGEMONKEY16]

I just bought my first duvet cover and struggled to put it on. This video was the only one (after 5 videos) that was explained well enough and done slow enough that I could actually see what was going on. Thanks!

[@JanHowell]

Glad it helped

[@mariking1121]

Hi Jan, your method is the easiest to do on the internet! Absolutely. I'm in my 70's of age and can still do this, YEAH:) I have a big insert down as well.

[@JanHowell]

Awesome, glad it was helpful.

[@jaderavenheart-wallace5589]

I watched several videos about putting on a duvet cover; you are amazing and this first timer put it on with a broken back in minutes. I got lucky as my cover came with strings that you tie onto the corners but I couldn't have done it without you, thanks so much!

[@JanHowell]

Glad I could help!

[@nitanita5548]

OMG just purchased a king duvet and I have a heavy goosedown comforter your method save me so much stress with getting it inside the duvet. Thank you for posting this.

[@ellenvalenti246]

I tried both ways and found that the first was so much easier!! Thank you so much!!

[@shellygray7226]

I have an Air BnB & you just CHANGED MY LIFE❣️ Thank You 🙏💕

[@robertklose2140]

Thank you. I found this much easier than the "burrito" method, which has never worked for me.

[@JanHowell]

Glad it helped!

[@hollym1080]

This is the only video that’s ever been able to help me put my duvet cover on. Never had any luck with the “burrito method” myself; thanks a million, Jan!!

[@JanHowell]

Thanks and you are so welcome

[@Anabee399]

Wow! This is the most comprehensive duvet tutorial online. Thank you, and God's blessings 👍🙏

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful

[@jessh6184]

Just wanted to let you know, for years I only watch this video. I come back to you every time lol

[@JanHowell]

Awesome, glad it was helpful.

[@leem8256]

Same!! 😂😁

[@ferielo6884]

It took a few times watching to get it but got it the first time. Thank you! I have never had my duvet looking so neatly on my bed 👏

[@tnerB26]

I love that you provided two different methods. I learned the "burrito method" several years ago, but forgot it. Thanks for the refresher and an alternate method for thicket duvets.

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome!

[@juliejackson5560]

Thank you for this!!! I tried another KZbin video that used the burrito method that didn't work. But after watching your video, it was because my duvet was really thick, and this worked first shot!! Thank you!

[@ballen772]

This was very helpful. Thank you!

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome!

[@gericastor3421]

can you just come over??

[@dannettepeters1507]

😂

[@Vinniegret]

Hahaha.

[@Vinniegret]

I couldn’t get my pillow shams on - I’d never used them before. But I wanted to have a beautiful bed when it was made. I used your duvet cover method (with the corners ) and violà, the pillow went in with no further fighting. The pillow surrendered to the sham! Thanks!

[@evejen01]

😂😂😂

[@patriciashadden998]

Like your corner pulling idea better than the burrito method. Thanks!! Easier in the long run. I now have put ties inside of my cover to tie to corner ends if my duvet to keep them in place. 😍

[@jacksams3028]

That's what I was missing on the tutorials, this one included. Nobody mentions the ties and I would like to use them. The corner pooling method allows for this pretty easily. Just tie them as you go.

[@jaceeroyster6366]

Thank you so much for this. This is the definition of the little things count. I couldn't thank you enough for this trick 🙏🏾

[@Rema0221]

This is the first time I have ever been able to put on a duvet cover. Thank you so much!!!

[@JanHowell]

You're so welcome!

[@nancyjomcdaniel9062]

Oh my gosh, I can't believe I even thought to go to the internet to find a HOW TO put the duvet cover back on.......PERFECT DESCRIPTION & EASY TO DO!!! Thank you!!! NJ

[@JanHowell]

Glad I could help!

[@chriseld3510]

Hi Jan. I've been struggling for so long with this problem I've checked all over KZbin and you were the one who gave me the keys to solve this puzzle. Thank you so so very much appreciate it greatly xxxxx

[@SURFERGRL72RAKM]

Yes! Same here 💯 All other videos only related to covers with ties so they did the burrito roll. My friends cover only has a small opening at one end with a zipper . Those other videos were useless to me, this video is greatly appreciated.

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome!

[@kinyaikiara8909]

Thank you momma for taking your precious time to share these tips. Blessings 🙏

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome.

[@HollyTiffany1]

I actually enjoyed this tutorial. It was the easiest and most informative video on this subject.

[@JanHowell]

Thank you.

[@JCRFT]

Out of all duvet videos, this one is the most helpful and helped me put on my first duvet cover. Thank you so much.

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful.

Legend. Im an idiot and I even found this so simple. Thanks Jan.

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome

[@eyeOOsee]

My goodness!! Well, THANK YOU, Jan!! My arms are so sore from fighting with my winter comforter!! I went to LLBean to get instructions and I couldn't find any! Then I thought of the most wonderful people on youtube who would actually show me, and there you were! God Bless you, Jan!!!! THANK YOU!!!

[@eyeOOsee]

And by the way, YOUR video is THE BEST one on youtube!

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome! God bless you too my friend!

[@catherinefleming3112]

What a relief to be showed HOW. No more frustration for me. Thanks👍👍👍💞👏👏👏

[@JanHowell]

Glad to help

[@mirandolina46]

I've been using the method of reaching in and grabbing the corners for years. It works fine with both the summer weight and the winter weight duvet. Nobody showed me the method, I worked it out myself and was quite pleased with my "invention"!

[@JanHowell]

Good stuff!

[@joaniedevaney533]

I was going to return the Duvet cover because I just got so stressed and I was really unhappy with the small opening in the end. BUT I hung in there and after watching this video I was able to do it by myself! Thanks a million Jan. Cannot wait to see what other tips you have to keep it simple

[@JanHowell]

Thanks and you are so welcome

[@yatazaqyahrawach1466]

Thank you so much. I didn't even have to watch the whole thing and understood where you were going with this. I watched a video before yours and she exhausted me just watching her and I was more confused than when I started. 🤗

[@christinedoherty5098]

Get hubby to help.

[@carolwieland2481]

YOUR WAY IS THE ONLY WAY !!! FOR ME perfect struggled for days a little each day . thank you so much !!!!!

[@JanHowell]

Awesome, glad it was helpful.

[@jaclynjohnson5324]

The first "corner to corner" method worked for my heavy Winter duvet! Thanks for posting this video!

[@JanHowell]

Excellent!

[@miledysdatena9865]

I bought a duvet and tomorrow I am getting the comforter. After watching your video I will be able to put it together. Thanks for sharing your video.

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome!

[@DoomyGloomy]

It took a few tries but the first method worked. I can't thank you enough. It saved me so so so much time. I had almost given up on duvet covers entirely. The second method unfortunetly doesn't seem to work with my cover because it has a very small/short zip opening.

[@debrahowell4529]

Thank you so much!! My daughter gave me a duvet and cover. She sent me a video on how to do this, but it was the burrito method, and my duvet is very thick! I almost lost it!!!!!! This method worked!!!!!!! God bless you.

[@JanHowell]

Wonderful!

[@patriciachirgwin3238]

Thank you so much for this demonstration! I have tried and failed to use the burrito method, but have realised through your video that the burrito method doesn’t work for me and my 13.5 tog duvet! I always thought I was missing something, but your first method worked a dream on my new duvet and cover! I am so pleased - it worked so easily - thank you! Success at last!🎉🎉🎉

[@JanHowell]

Wonderful.

[@AndreaM1127]

Thank you, thank you!! ❤️ I was very close in returning the duvet and the cover, because it was too frustrating putting it on. With this method, took me 3 minutes 😍😍😍

[@JanHowell]

Glad I could help!

[@mariejohnson4192]

What cover are you talking about???

[@lindseyfroud8160]

OMG! Have just tried this hack with my two layer, super thick duvet - which previously used to take me 10 minutes + to wrangle (plus a lot of sweat and bad language!)....you have changed my life!! Thank you SO MUCH!! Will never again dread the duvet 😂😊

[@JanHowell]

Wonderful!

[@MitaleeNubeebuckus]

Thank you Jan, the first method is a life saver. I was really starring at my duvet before I saw your video. You are the best 👌 👍🏼

[@JanHowell]

Thanks Mitalee!

[@KathleenM-e1l]

I've wrestled with my duvet too often. Other KZbin videos didn't help. Forget the Burrito! Thank you for your clear instructions and reasonably paced video I could follow.

[@JanHowell]

[@karenmalus967]

Thank you for clear, concise instructions with no loud foghorn voice of a D list celebrity talking over the instructions with comments to “kinda zshudge it”. I finally did with a minimum of effort

Ma’am I want to thank you so much for this video. You have made life a little easier😉

[@JanHowell]

[@carolefreeman2544]

That first method, is exactly the way I have been putting my duvet and cover together. I have done this for years. This is my preferred method….That’s a pretty duvet cover you have.

[@JanHowell]

Wonderful, and thank you.

[@Bandit-em1sw]

Thanks so much, Jan! Your tutorial made, what I thought would be, a herculean task into a two-minute fix.

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful!

[@yfarah99]

Thank You. I found the 1st method (let us call the Corners' Method) much easier to comprehend, visualise and implement than the "Rolling Method". It worked very well. Good on You. 👍

[@JanHowell]

Thanks for sharing!

[@NFD3122]

Oh my gosh, 🙏🏼 thank you!! Your technique honestly makes all the sense in the world, however I never thought of it, and, instead, would spend at least 15-20 minutes sandwiched in between my duvet and the cover trying to get everything aligned 😂 This is a total game changer 🙌🏼

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful!

[@paulb6152]

Once you had the duvet on Im just amazed you took it off again to show the jelly roll method 😁 Seriously now the clearest explanation of the roll method I have seen thx

I have this exact duvet cover! This instructional life hack was very helpful. Thank you.

[@JanHowell]

Great to hear! And I love this yellow duvet.

Where is it from?? I'm looking for a yellow floral just like that 💛

[@selena_duran]

@@annemarieharrington8590 It's from IKEA.

[@joannmiller2459]

This method works. I was going to use burrito but not working & my duvet is voluminous. I had already tied the corners in & that actually helped. As she did in video I still reached up thru the open end & wow! So easy. At the flap just turn it over duvet at the end before you get that duvet perfectly in there. Less than 3 minutes. Thanks!!!

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful

[@rachelroot2913]

Thanks to this video, I was able to put on the duvet cover I bought on black friday and was about to return. So frustrated I was snappy and on the verge of tears. I'm able to enjoy my new duvet on Christmas! The other "easy" methods didn't work for me but the corners method is great!

You are so welcome

[@erlenemartin8365]

Thank you, you've saved me frustration of getting my weighted blanket in a duvet. cover.

[@mystedragon]

that sounds even more painful

[@MrNele99]

I love this method! My bed is a California king, and though my duvet isn't very thick, the whole mess is just so big! This works way better for me than the burrito method. Thank you!

[@JanHowell]

You are so welcome

[@judethfenton5978]

I do a similar method but start at the opening. I roll the duvet into its cover and by the time I reach the head of the bed it is inside the cover. This seems easier than having to roll down the bed and then up again. The winter duvet tip was excellent. Thank you for your tips. Every ounce of effort saved is appreciated.

[@JanHowell]

Great tip! I actually just posted a new tutorial on how to make your own duvet, but at the end I show the "reach in and pull technique" you can find it here. It's much easier! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWfGlqmXbqafmbs :)

[@carlakrachun9450]

I don't understand, could you explain this in more detail?

[@tweetyuno]

[@JanHowell]

Glad it was helpful.

[@jjo5375]

The bed is a king, and working the cover on is a real chore! I have a bulky, but light in weight, duvet, and use the 'corner grab' method. Once on and adjusted, I like to use large diaper safety pins on the corners...through both the cover and the duvet, one on each side, and again where the snaps are at the bottom. Doing this keeps the cover and duvet properly placed, and the pins across the snaps takes the pressure off them so they won't tear. Keeps the duvet from roaming inside the cover. : )

[@veevee111]

J Jo, thanks for sharing your method; I will use the diaper pins tip on my first queen size duvet cover!

[@JanHowell]

LOL you are so kind.

[@susanwalker6271]

good video. I had already figured out the first way, if your are lucky your duvet will have ties in the corners in the inside and your comforter with have something to tie them to! This really helps but it takes more than a few seconds!

Yes, I like corner ties as well.

[@janetferman6865]

Well, thanks so much for this! My duvet cover has ties inside at each corner and didn't know what they were for 😂 I tied them to each corner and followed your first method 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 so much easier than burrito! Thanks again.
