Comforter Cover Hack: Traditional, Burrito, and Two-Person Methods!

Hey moms, putting a comforter into a cover can feel tricky, but with a few techniques, you’ll handle it like a pro! the three popular methods: the traditional, the California roll (or burrito), and the two-person method.

Each approach has unique benefits—try them out to see which fits your routine best.

1. The Traditional Method

A straightforward approach that requires just one person:

• Lay the Comforter Flat: Spread the comforter flat on your bed.

• Turn the Cover Inside Out: Place it on the comforter, with the opening at the foot of the bed.

• Flip the Cover: Insert your hands into the cover's corners, grab the comforter, and flip the cover over.

• Secure and Fluff: Zip, button, or tie the cover's opening, then fluff the comforter to distribute it evenly.

2. The California Roll (Burrito) Method

Perfect for a neat, easy roll-in method:

• Turn the Cover Inside Out: Lay it on the bed with the opening at the foot.

• Align the Comforter and Cover: Spread the comforter on top of the cover, aligning corners.

• Roll Together: Starting at the head of the bed, tightly roll the comforter and cover like a burrito.

• Stuff the Ends: Pull the cover over the ends of the roll.

• Unroll and Fluff: Unroll the comforter, shake, and smooth it out

3. The Two-Person Method

Best with a helping hand:

• One Holds the Cover Open: One person holds the cover open at the bed’s foot.

• Align and Insert: The second person aligns and inserts the comforter.

• Secure the Corners: Both secure the comforter’s top corners inside the cover.

• Shake Down: Holding the corners, shake the cover down over the comforter.

• Close and Fluff: Zip or button the cover and give it a final fluff.

Each method simplifies the cover-on process without the stress. The traditional method is simple for solo changers, the California roll is quick and tidy, and the two-person method is ideal for larger comforters.

By mastering these techniques, you’ll keep your comforter clean, stylish, and easy to change.
