A neatly made bed is the heart of a cozy bedroom—and nothing elevates your bed’s look and feel quite like a high-quality duvet cover. But if you’ve ever struggled with stuffing a bulky duvet into its cover, you’re not alone. At IndoLinen, we know that luxury should come with ease. That’s why we’re here to walk you through exactly how to put a duvet cover on, using both traditional and modern methods. Plus, we’ll explore the many benefits of using a duvet cover for a fresher, more stylish sleep.
What Is a Duvet Cover and How Does It Work?
A duvet cover is a protective and decorative shell that encases your duvet or comforter. Much like a pillowcase protects your pillow, a duvet cover keeps your insert clean while allowing you to switch up your bedroom’s style with minimal effort.
Using a duvet cover from IndoLinen means you can enjoy breathable, hotel-quality fabric that not only feels amazing but also extends the life of your duvet. With the right techniques, changing your cover becomes a quick, hassle-free task.
How to Put a Duvet Cover On: Traditional Method
The traditional method is straightforward and perfect for anyone who prefers a simple, hands-on approach:
What You’ll Need:
-
Your inner duvet
-
A duvet cover
- A flat surface (like your bed)
Steps:
- Turn the duvet cover inside out and lay it flat on the bed, with the opening at the bottom of the bed.
-
Lay the duvet insert directly on top of the cover.
-
Attach corner ties (if your IndoLinen cover has them) to the corners of the duvet to keep it from slipping.
- Starting from the closed end, reach into the cover and grab the top corners, pulling the fabric over the insert.
-
Shake and adjust the cover until it fully encases the duvet.
- Seal the cover with buttons or zippers and smooth everything out.
This method may take a little muscle but gets easier with practice. The ties in IndoLinen covers help prevent bunching and keep everything in place.
How to Put a Duvet Cover On: The Burrito (California Roll) Method
For a smoother, often quicker approach, the burrito method—also known as the California Roll method—is a game-changer. It’s especially helpful if you’re doing this solo.
Steps:
-
Turn your duvet cover inside out, and lay it on your bed, opening at the foot.
-
Place the duvet insert on top of the cover, aligning all corners.
-
Tie the corners if your cover includes ties.
-
From the head of the bed, start rolling both the duvet and cover together, like a burrito, all the way to the bottom.
-
Once fully rolled, reach into the cover opening and flip the entire roll inside out, one end at a time.
-
Unroll the newly enclosed burrito back toward the head of the bed, and shake out to finish.
- This method minimizes effort and keeps your duvet perfectly aligned inside the cover. Plus, it’s oddly satisfying!
