Making the Bed
By Cathy Pearl
  

1     Making the bed is not as hard as it looks. It is something that everyone can do to make his or her bedroom look neat and clean. By following some simple steps, you can make your bed look this way.
 
2     Start with clean sheets. If you are buying new sheets, make sure you buy the right size. Every set of sheets will have the size on the package. Don't buy sheets that are too big or too small. This will make it almost impossible to make the bed. When you get the sheets home, wash and dry them before you put them on the bed. This will make them softer and easier to work with.
 
3     Of course, you know that you have to take the dirty sheets off the bed first. Make sure to take the pillowcases off the pillows. Put everything in a pile and set it off to the side. You will wash this later.
