Quick and Easy trick to put on a Duvet Cover

Probably the single most frustrating bed-making task is putting on a duvet cover. Not any more! This little trick will take just two minutes and will make you smile every time!!

[@robertmcintyre9023]

Tried out this trick today. Managed to set the duvet cover on fire.

[@askauntlaura]

Hahaha that’s awesome!

[@alangotlieb3339]

Thanks for this... works perfectly. Beats climbing inside the cover then climbing up a ladder which is what I've been doing up till now

[@askauntlaura]

haha That's so true! I felt like a gymnast trying to get the darn thing on in the past! Thanks for letting me know it worked for you. :)

[@olivemaj1077]

Yours is the simplest explanation of the five I’ve watched- Thankyou!

[@askauntlaura]

Thanks Olive! It can give you quite a sense of triumph when it's properly in place! :)

Aunt Laura scrubs up pretty good in those jeans:)

[@paulinestott5581]

I tried this on my own today, managed to put the duvet cover on fine.

[@dancescaespino429]

OMG!! That was so easy! Thank you for this video!! Simple but helpful ;)

[@askauntlaura]

Thank you so much for letting me know! Glad it worked for you!! :)

[@abdulwahid-vi2uo]

@@askauntlaura is it possible only one person do this trick?

[@askauntlaura]

@@abdulwahid-vi2uo I'm so sorry I never saw your question! Yes I do this all the time by myself. Some extra steps needed as I walk from one side of the bed to the other while rolling/unrolling, but it still takes just minutes to do!

[@aleithea2715]

Genius. Thank you.

[@askauntlaura]

Isn't this the most amazing 'trick'? :)

[@mittahlatshwayo4277]

Thank you for the best easiest method 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@askauntlaura]

Once you get the hang of it - it actually becomes a ‘fun’ chore!

[@KungFuHotdog]

Who doesn't want more likes? 😂 Thanks for watching!

[@schreffl]

It worked! Wow. Thanks.

[@askauntlaura]

Actually makes this chore fun! Glad it worked for you and thanks so much for taking the time to let me know!

[@hotcommodity9221]

Thank you so much lmao would’ve never figured this out by myself

[@G.george.glass24]

I was thinking the same!! 🙏🏽♥️♥️♥️

[@harmony1774]

Same here 😂😂

[@askauntlaura]

Haha takes a couple of tries to get the hang of it but this has sure made my life easier!

[@wandaprescott6672]

I Couldn't. It was a Hassle..I put mine on like a Pillow Case..No Rolling...Easy !! Love it..

[@BklynBlinks]

life saver .. I needed this

[@askauntlaura]

Haha isn't this the best?! Glad it helped and thanks for taking the time to let me know :)

[@godfreymayonga]

GREAT VIDEO

[@askauntlaura]

Thank you!!!

[@emmalacorte5346]

That's really cool! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@askauntlaura]

Thanks Emma! It can take a few tries to get the hang of it haha glad it is helpful!

[@daleduerden1185]

So helpful thankyou

[@askauntlaura]

You’re so welcome!

[@barbarahoblin5884]

Thank you. This was brilliant for my fibre duvet but not for my feather one.

[@askauntlaura]

So glad it was helpful - I haven't tried it with a feather duvet...looks like I'll need to research a Part II for a new video!

[@Sem5626]

nice video, there are other ones that cut out the fold / turn inside out bit, kudos for actually showing it

[@askauntlaura]

Thanks for taking the time to comment! It's appreciated :)

[@molliemoon2609]

that is such a good way to put the duvet cover on

[@askauntlaura]

Isn't it?! So glad it was helpful!

[@darlinemyrtil2107]

Thank you

[@askauntlaura]

You're welcome Darline! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :)

[@JuderkaMoretaaitetsu]

easy for two people, but remember housekeeping is done by just one person!

[@askauntlaura]

Yes - so true! I do hope you find this method makes that part of the job a bit quicker to tackle!

[@peekapower1817]

I have tried this thousands of times and memorised how it’s done it, does, not, WORK!!!

[@paulinestott5581]

Worked for me and I was on my own.

[@askauntlaura]

It can take a little practice the first time to get the duvet properly rolled into the cover but I hope you keep practicing! Much easier to try with a twin size! :)

[@itstuff4744]

Proverb : « If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again » 😃😃

[@mobile144]

Does this work if you tie the top first

[@pamelamolina5623]

I was scratching my head through the entire video but OMG 😳 IT WORKS! yeah fun hahaha

[@askauntlaura]

As you are rolling and tucking and stuffing you think to yourself "There is no way this is going to work" and then it all slips into place like magic! 😊 So fun! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment Pamela!

[@kimmiepint9388]

I was today years old, when I learned! TY

[@askauntlaura]

Haha isn’t this an awesome trick?

[@MarilynAsongwe]

Hey 👋 thanks

[@askauntlaura]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching :)

[@rickwheeler358]

The one thing they leave out is tying the corners first. Seems they don't see that as important. It is important otherwise the comforter inside can slide around inside the duvet. Not sure why they left that out.

[@askauntlaura]

You're right Rick - tying the corners certainly keeps it from sliding around! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)

[@OfficialBlondeAndBoujee]

Thanks for the video but, what about tying the corners?

[@askauntlaura]

You are so right! I found that people were putting duvet covers on top of old comforters - and comforters don't have tabs to tie onto. I will definitely make a follow up video showing what those ties are for. :)Thanks for taking the time to comment!

[@miatafunrun3078]

I have been struggling for decades with this, I will have to try it :). I still don't understand why they can't make a cover with zippers on two sides - insert and zip up.

[@askauntlaura]

I think you are on to something! Or even one that zippers on three sides, similar to a sleeping bag. Let me know if you tried it and how it came out - takes some practice. :)

[@wandaprescott6672]

May I Say The Roll Is Too Much Hassle..I just Layed down Comfy & Put Dovet On Top..Corner's Tied up.. Then I Just Pulled down like A Pillow Case ! No Problem...All Done ! No Bump's ! Lump's ! Luxury Dovet Cover & Comforter From Cosy House..Better Then Silk.. ❤😊😴

[@victoriastarkey7778]

It would help if they were two different colors. It's hard to see what is what.

[@askauntlaura]

That's an excellent point Victoria! I do hope you were able to figure it out though...once you learn how to tuck it properly and unroll it, it will be a breeze.

[@joanbeeldens6131]

okay if there’s two of you but not so easy if your alone

[@askauntlaura]

Yes a king sized duvet does take more time - good way to get your daily step quota in by going from one side to the other, and then back to the other lol

[@mariamkinen8036]

It must be about the rolling? that you get it done

[@askauntlaura]

Yes - it’s in the overlapping of the cover and the rolling. :)

[@noorasiah4111]

Hebat👏👏👏

[@tigertigercrypto]

My maid does mine! 🤣🤣

[@askauntlaura]

hahaha

[@firstylasty9417]

Don't forget the step: Have 2 people. #ExtraHands #SinglesAwareness

[@askauntlaura]

Two people definitely make the job go quicker - especially with a king sized duvet! But once you get the hang of it you’d be amazed how quickly you can get this done. :)

[@firstylasty9417]

@@askauntlaura I'll give it the ole college try, thanks. Sounds like an easier option than finding a fellow "bedfellow." Haha.

[@cruz2204]

Entre dos personas es muy fácil

[@askauntlaura]

Yes, it is easier with two people, especially with a large king sized bed. :)

[@Kittyququmber]

Why do you not tie the cloth tags in all four corners before unrolling?

[@askauntlaura]

Great question! Because many people use a duvet cover on a comforter (and not a duvet) - and a comforter doesn't have tabs to tie to. But this is a great reminder for me to make a follow up video on what those ties are for. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! :)

[@Kittyququmber]

@@askauntlaura thank you for the response. So easy to add tabs to a comforter.

[@darlenecarlo256]

Do you not use the corner ties?

[@askauntlaura]

I do but to be honest I completely forgot to add that recommendation when I was making the video. And often people will use their existing comforters instead of a duvet, and there isn’t always a way to use the ties with a comforter. But a good reminder for me to make a video about the ties. Thanks!

[@nickfleming3495]

There's two of em.

[@askauntlaura]

I won’t deny it - using two people with a king duvet makes the job so much quicker! But I hope you practice this method anyway and find you can get it in place in no time!

[@audspod1]

It takes 2 people!! When do you have another person helping to change a duvet?!!

[@askauntlaura]

I had my daughter help me just for the sake of getting it done in about a minute because who wants to watch me walking from one side to the other for two minutes? Haha A king sized duvet is definitely a bit more time consuming then a smaller size.

[@cgreen6369]

It's much easier with two people. I'm single and my cats are lazy.

[@askauntlaura]

Yes it is much easier with two people but I almost always do mine alone and it goes quicker with more practice. :) Lazy cats make the process extra fun too haha Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!

[@samuelbanfield4937]

my aunt is named laura lol

[@askauntlaura]

That's awesome! :)

[@peterwilliams1363]

Now then, this is going to be tricky for a Single p ns

[@askauntlaura]

A king duvet is definitely more time consuming when you are alone! But still about 2 hours faster than any other method lol

[@ava5045]

That was harder in should have been 😭😭😭

[@askauntlaura]

Sorry for the late reply!! It takes some practice to get it to work so don't give up!

[@alannaylor8934]

Now explain what a burreedo is!

[@DeeTeaDee]

WHY IS MY COVER WAY BIGGER THAN MY DUVET!!!!? And yes I turned it round!!! This is the second cover ive BOUGHT!!!! WTF!!???

[@askauntlaura]

Oh no! Without being there I'm not really sure why there is a difference. :( Other than the duvet being a size smaller than you thought it was, maybe the duvet was washed and put in the dryer and perhaps it shrunk a bit?

[@DeeTeaDee]

@@askauntlaura its ok. It was a the wrong size in the pack i bought from Dumelm. I wrestled with it like a MAD MAN that night! 😂 Sorry for the caps!! x

[@askauntlaura]

@@DeeTeaDee haha There should be a channel just showing people trying to put on a duvet cover - it can be so frustrating! (especially in your situation haha)

[@zoidumsmcconnell3041]

Looks bunchy not very nice I'd get hell from my boss if mine looked like that at work

[@askauntlaura]

Thankfully my bed is just made for the dog, cats and husband to 'destroy' by the end of the day. :) Thanks for watching!
