  • I've reached a period in my organization journey where I've mastered quite a few things and learned easier and better ways to stay clutter-free and organized. But the linen closet is NOT one of them. So I spent time doing some research and learning about different methods of organizing the linen closet, and I think I've finally developed a method of keeping sheets, towels, fitted sheets, pillowcases, and the like organized!
    🗣️MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO.

    I used to work in housekeeping at a hotel. We used to fold our sheet sets and package them they way you just did. Not only is it the easiest cleanest way to do it. It just makes sense. You don't know how many times I have considered creating a UA-cam channel just to show how to fold a sheet set properly. Every linen organization I have seen they fold in a weird way. So thank you for showing the best way... finally someone 🙌 👏

    I love your channel! I take a set of sheets and fold everything minus one pillowcase from the set. After everything is folded, I put all of the items inside of the remaining pillowcase and fold that over to fit around the rest so I can grab the whole set at one time and I don't have to search for everything. I also have wine racks hanging on my walls in the bathroom and I have extra towels rolled and placed in each spot that the bottle of wine would normally be in.

      ^^ This!! Fold up everything and tuck it all in one of the pillowcases. I even keep my sheets in under the bed storage bins to keep them nearby when I need them. (Plus, if I get lazy on the day I wash them, they're out of sight out of mind, lol).
      Oh, and use those extra, mismatched pillowcases to clean ceiling fan blades instead of decluttering them!

    You can use unmatching pillow cases for a million uses. I put draw strings in the top and used them as mini clothes hampers for kids. I hung them inside their bedroom closet or on the side of a dresser and they learned to put the dirty clothes in them. A lot of other uses.

    I lay my fitted sheets out on the bed, fit two corners inside the opposite corners, fold in half and then again like you until I have a neat rectangle. I put both folded sheets and one case inside the second pillow case and fold over to make a neat/complete bedding package. I’m pretty obsessive about the rounded folded edges of sheet bundles and towels facing out. I also save pretty gift boxes and baskets to hold the random things that clutter a closet(night lights, travel cosmetics, etc) I open my closet door and it looks like a linen shop. My husband calls my passion for organizing closets “playing house.”

    The first part of folding the spa towel hit me with serious nostalgia as it is the first step to folding notebook paper (for those of you old enough to remember that stuff) to end up with a note to pass to friends in between classes. You know, back in the dark dim past before cell phones&texting 😂 Anyway, loved this as my linen closet is like yours was-nice until you needed something. Will be redoing it this way and love the pillowcase in basket thing, too, as I use extra pillows for chronic pain both sitting and sleeping so I have loads extra. Am anticipating the pure delight at seeing them all orderly in a basket🧺 Happy early birthday and yes, after 30 it all kind of blends for sure!

However, I have terrible allergies and like the idea of encasing the pillowcases (since that's what will be against my face) within the sheets instead, minimizing contact with irritants while being stored.

    I juast did all my sweaters and shirts in my dresser using the method you suggested with your kids clothes. Now I can see everything I have in my drawers so simply. I have been using the method of picking my clothes the night before and laying them out because before I did this I would simply waste time staring into my closets and drawers after being showered. I just could not make a decision that early in the morning. I love the new drawers and like you I feel joy when I open my drawers and see how neat they are. It is also encouraging me to get rid of some of my sweaters and shirts because I have waaaaaay more than I need.
    Kalli, really sympathize with your need to escape for a bit of piece and quiet when you have young children. I remember days when I would I drive to a parking lot and just to sit in the sun and quiet for maybe 15 minutes while my husband watch my son. It felt amazing. Blessing and prayers for you and your family.

    First we're birthday month buddies so happy birthday to you ❤ also, a hack I've learned is that when you put fitted sheets with their pillow covers, i put one pillow case in the sheet and then fold the sheet and pillow case and put it inside of the other pillow case. It looks more organized and if any time any one falls (usually with my kids), the fold doesnt open. 👌

    I have 3 sets of sheets, full, twin and queen. I have extra pillow cases too. Your idea is putting them in a basket was inspiring to me. I have a much larger linen closet( have to). I put queen on top shelf, full on next shelf and twin on the bottom shelf. Except I do one other thing; I put my sheets in one pillow case and keep them organized in that fashion. The beach towels, I do the same thing. I roll them and place on a laid out new shower curtain (basically on the floor) along with the pads that I must use. I am a paraplegic and it’s just easier for me to fold them the way that you did too. My compliments to you learning how to fold a fitted sheet!

    I too use a pillowcase to hold my fitted and flat sheet, along with the extra pillow cases for each size bed. Found that when my daughters were younger and helped get the sheets, the sheets would go everywhere. When everything is in one pillow case, it’s easier to carry. Love the rolling of the towels “spa style”

    Love this, great demo! 👏👏Packaging the sheets together is brilliant. Love the opening banter. I think I could watch you demo anything, you're such a joy to watch. Your positivity, humour, willingness to laugh at yourself, and enthusiasm are contagious. So thanks for that gift to all of us followers. Not to mention your practical tips, hacks, mom advice, and gift guides are awesome!

    I dig sassy Kallie. We change our pillow cases almost every night so I have 3 sets of sheets for the household, but probably 20 pillow cases. I will be implementing the basket!

    You are a joy to watch. I always know I am going to learn something that is going to help me. No nonsense, just you sharing something that might help someone else's life be easier. I love your sense of humor too. Keep up the great work. 🥰 I always laugh when I see someone trying to find a fitted sheet. Usually you just want to wad it up and throw it in the corner. Since retiring we don't need to keep extra sets of sheets, but I enjoyed this video and watched it all.

    I never thought about the fitted sheet so much until I started watching UA-cam! Lol I was blessed with a mom who folded fitted sheets. So I’ve been helping her since I was little.
    We also used the 2nd pillow case, inside out, and put all the sheets and other pillow case inside it. Grab and go!

    Kallie, you helped me wake up this morning so thank you for that! I use part of my master closet for my linens because I don’t have a linen closet. The spa towel idea will definitely be helpful but we don’t care about our sheets matching so I do my best to fold and stash. Thanks for your ideas! 🥰

  • @monicastrickland9121

    I learned how to fold a fitted sheet watching an older lady at the laundromat about 35 years ago. A flat surface is a necessity lol
    My current home does not have linen storage, so I am using a portion of my master closet for that - which I really do not need as big of a closet as I have, so it works.
    After watching your video about reducing your wardrobe, I am looking at my own and know I need to scale it back to only the things I really love/use. My jewelry is going to be hard...
    Thanks for all the good content you put out!

    I put my sets of bed linens in one of the pillow cases and bIblove that even if I don’t fold them perfectly, they still look so neat. But your towel folding hint is going to really make my life with my gazillion large bath sheets and beach towels so much easier. Thank you

This particular video, though… I had to pause it after the opening to let you know how much I love the slightly unhinged start that this video has. Can’t wait to see the rest of it! And… *unpause*

    1. I never knew a video about linen closets could be so funny! My son couldn't figure out why I was laughing so much!🤣
    2. I fold my sheets the same way and have loved it! I prefer the flat sheet to wrap around because it tends to hold better when you have others (kids) rummaging.
    3. Youtubing is absolutely a verb. Like googling. Also my autocorrect recognized it as a word!

    So I’m an adult between 50-55 and also under 5ft tall. I’m short and so is life! We have two sets of sheets. One on the bed and one clean set in a basket. I don’t fold them at all. They live in a basket on the bottom shelf and I don’t argue with the sheets anymore 🤣🤣🤣. That being said, thank you for your videos and your Instagrams. You bring joy to the world 💚I could watch you all day!!

  • @heatherstylishteacher9408
    @heatherstylishteacher9408 2 роки тому +1

    I do something similar with my sheets. The only difference is I package the fitted, flat and pillowcase inside the second pillowcase and that keeps the items stacked in the closet and easy to pull out when I pull sheets out. Love your videos! Have a great Sunday.

    Lol. My mom didn't teach me much about cleaning or cooking but dang it she did teach me how to fold a fitted sheet.
    I have found that if I'm folding a king size sheet, it helps to lay it on the bed to get the corners together. That's a LOT of fabric to work with when you have short arms.
    I am so stealing the towel idea. love it.

  • @smithy4121
    @smithy4121 2 роки тому +6

    Happy birthday 🎉! I started to use my mum's way which is a mix of folding everything and then putting all of the bed set in one of the pillowcases. I don't use top sheets as we have duvets and duvet covers but I still wanted it all together. I think I might use a bigger version of those baskets to put the pillow case bedding packages in or maybe plastic tubs with lids so I can stack them and separate the different sizes as I don't have loads of shelves just one. I really like your way of folding towels

    Excellent idea to put things away so you can retrieve without making a mess. Now I have to go work on my pantry (metal shelves in a short hall, opposite my washer and dryer). I organized them last week, but need to go back and evaluate. I'm 70 and live with Millenial son who has problems finding things, as many men do. Plus we don't eat the same things. After 2 yrs, finally getting things organized here.

    Speaking of random parking lots? My husband and I parked in Lowe's lot to eat our Chick-fil-A sandwiches and slurp down our iced drinks. Looking around us, we noticed several other people doing same. Parking lots can rock when we need to find a spot to sip coffee concoctions, film UA-cam videos or munch lunch!
    Thanks goo-gobs for all your life advice.

    Thank you for the tutorial on folding sheets. I found a method years ago that makes it extremely easy. Fold the fitted sheet however you want, but not wider than the pillowcases. Fold the flat sheet to pretty much fit the size of the fitted sheet. Fold all but one pillowcase to also match the size of the fitted sheet (or smaller it really doesn’t matter). Then take that “pack” of sheets and slide them in to the pillowcase that you have left. And then fold the pillowcase over in half and you have a neat little package to put into your linen closet or on the shelf.
