The first trick is to accept them for what they are - great in bed. Not so good on the shelf, but that's okay. They do a great job doing what they were made to do.





The second trick is to place your hands inside the corners and fold the sheet in half, then flip one corner over the other. Do this with both ends, then just do your best to make them square up.





The third trick is to place the flat sheet, the fitted sheet, and one pillowcase all inside of the other pillowcase. Tuck under the end and you have a very nice carrying sack for your sheets that looks halfway decent on the shelf, plus, they don't get mixed up with all the other stuff or lost in your closet.
grab your corners, so they almost make a square, and fold away.
Fitted sheets are a bear at best. But there is a way to handle them.





Hold your sheet by one corner. Follow the edge to the next corner and fold that over the first one, and so on until all four corners are in your hand. Then make sure the sheet isn't twisted and proceed as you would with a flat sheet.





Good luck!
This takes a LOT of practice and patience..





First grab all four corners... fold them together in twos...





Get frustrated, ROLL EM' IN A BIG BALL and THROW em' into the BACK of the linen closet....





Cover them with a big, nicely folded comforter so the fact that they exist is just a distant memory...





Make a nice cold margarita....





Enjoy!!!!
Fold the sheet loosely in half, so that the corners line up. Then fold it in half again to line up all four corners. Next is a bit hard to explain, but you essentially tuck each corner into the next. Kind of like making the four corners into 1 corner instead of 4. You'll then end up with a somewhat of a square. fold it widthwise into 1/3s, then lengthwise into 1/3s. Done.
Good luck, I never figured that one out myself, COME ON LADIES!
You can do this by laying the sheet out on the bed and folding it in half then bringing the right side 1/3 of the way in and taking the other side and bringing it in (like a book) and then folding in the sides...





OR fold until it fits into the coordinationg pillowcase and store BOTH the fitted/flat/pillowcase in a pillowcase.. That's what I do that way everything stays together and I store it in an underbed storage container under the bed it belongs to...
