How to Fold a Fitted Sheet (Without Losing Your Mind)
Fitted sheets have a reputation.
They’re stretchy. They fight back. And most people end up shoving them into a closet and hoping no one notices.
Folding a fitted sheet is absolutely possible, and once you see it done properly, it clicks.
That’s why we’ve created a short video showing exactly how to fold a fitted sheet into a neat, stackable rectangle. No wrestling. No guesswork. Just a clean fold that actually holds its shape.

Yes. Yes. Yes. We know. The picture above says "Pants", but we swear, it will take you right to the fitted sheet when you press play.
Why Fitted Sheets Are So Hard to Fold
It’s not you!!! It’s the elastic.
Unlike flat sheets, fitted sheets are designed to grip mattresses, not behave politely in your hands. The elastic corners pull in different directions, which is why most people give up halfway through.
The right folding method works with the elastic instead of fighting it, and once you see it, you’ll never go back to the “stuff it in the closet” approach.
Why Neatly Folded Sheets Actually Matter
Folding fitted sheets properly isn’t just about aesthetics.
A clean fold means:
- Less wrinkling
- Easier stacking and storage
- Faster linen changes
- A calmer, more organized closet
It’s a small thing that makes a big difference.
