We have way too many sheet/comforter sets. Once I finally settle on a paint color for our bedroom, I’m going to get rid of most of them and settle down with a spring/summer and winter/fall combo.

Plus, all the beds are different sizes, and it’s impossible to “organize” sheets in a closet used by more than one person, which is what prompted the need to keep the correct size sheets in the same room as the bed.

I, too, suffer from “P and P” syndrome, and we’d have to unfold the sheets to almost full openness, which would then make it necessary to lift up the entire mattress to get to the sheets, which I’m not doing, SO -

When we had three beds going in our house, we did only have two sheet sets per bed, and we stored the extra set in the room with the bed, which, I guess, is really the same solution. One sheet set doesn’t really make an impact in a closet, a drawer, or in one case, the night stand right beside the bed. Plus, it saves having to leave the room to get sheets, or even worse, going up or down a flight of stairs.

It’s totally pathetic how happy this thread has made me. I’m going to empty our closet now.

THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! I’m totally going to pretend I thought of it myself the next time Jay and I do the bed and blow his mind.

I did the bag thing and put stuff under my bed before, and the cat clawed at the bags. I have since moved on to plastic boxes…

I do this and when I first moved in with my boyfriend he thought I was insane. It’s something I learned from my grandmother, who had 6 kids… so at minimum 7 beds 14 sets of sheets. I also keep a dryer sheet with them to keep them smelling nice.
