The Parts Of The Sheet

First and foremost, let’s discuss the parts of the sheet so that we are all on the same page.

• The right “head” side
• The left “head” side
• The right “foot” side
• The left “foot” side
• The main sheet

As we go through the full folding process, these terms will be important to ensure optimal folding techniques.

Make Amature Folding Look Professional

A Touch Of Class wants to give you the tools to take amature folding to the next level, and make your fitted sheet look like it was folded by a professional. Here is our easy, step-by-step process:

1. Start with the sheet upside down, untwisted, and as smooth as possible
2. Fold the sheet in half so that it is half as long. Now you should be able to see the “sides” on the top half. If not, you did something wrong and you should start over. 
3. Fold the sheet in half again, the opposite way, keeping all the “sides” together
4. Place the sheet on the bed as you have folded so far
5. Proceed to tuck in any “sides” that are irregular or sticking out
6. Smooth the folded sheet by running your hand gently across the top to get rid of any wrinkles
7. Fold again, and continue folding until you’ve reached your desired size

As stated above, our team believes this is the easiest and most conducive folding technique for amature folders. As you begin to master the fitted sheet, feel free to discuss new techniques with our San Rafael and Ross dry cleaning team!
