Fitted/ Flat Sheets

What is the use of a flat sheet?

Flat sheets are meant to be placed on top of fitted sheets and offer a layer of protection for duvet covers and blankets. The flat sheet prevents body oil or dirt from getting onto the duvet cover by adding this protective layer to your bedding. This makes your bedding easier to maintain, as you won’t have to wash your duvet cover as often. We have flat sheets for sale in all standard bed sizes, including single flat sheet, king single flat sheet, double flat sheet, queen flat sheet, and king flat sheet, along with all mega sizes.

Are flat sheets better than fitted?

Flat sheets and fitted sheets have different purposes, so they both are equally important to your bedding. A fitted sheet is meant to go over the mattress to protect it and ensure a smooth surface for you to lie on. It is important to ensure you have the right dimensions for your mattress for both fitted and flat sheets.


Where do you put a flat sheet on a bed?

When you are in bed, your flat bed sheets should be positioned over your body and beneath any other bed layers, such as blankets, a duvet, and a comforter. The flat sheet can be used as a light, cooler cover during the hotter months, as well as an additional layer of warmth during the winter months. It also acts as an added barrier between yourself and your quilt, comforter, coverlet or bedspread, meaning you won’t need to wash it as often since it doesn’t come into direct contact.


How do you secure a flat sheet?

Flat sheets are secured by tucked under the fitted sheet for easy maintenance before sleeping and after waking up. First, lay the flat sheet on your bed, ensuring a smooth surface with no wrinkles. Spread the top sheet down the sides so that it can reach beneath the mattress, and then tuck in. You can create a knot or use safety pins or stretchy bands to keep your sheet tucked in.
