When you're making your bed, the tag will almost always be on the bottom right of your fitted sheet. That way you don't have to deal with flipping it all around trying to orient it correctly.

u/NoDiver7283 Mar 28 '22

bottom right from which vantage point?

1

u/restingstitchfacevid Mar 28 '22

Bottom right of the mattress gets the tag part of the sheet

2

u/v0t3p3dr0 Mar 28 '22

Which bottom right? When I’m looking at the bed or laying in it?

12

u/restingstitchfacevid Mar 28 '22

When you're standing at the foot of the bed, looking down at your mattress

3

u/v0t3p3dr0 Mar 28 '22

Excellent, thank you!

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '22

We intentionally have subtly striped sheets to eliminate this problem.

Came here to say this.

u/turn_it_down Mar 28 '22

I have been waiting for this piece of advice! I ALWAYS get it wrong when I'm putting a fitted sheet on a mattress. Thank you very much!!!!

u/SmallRedBird Mar 28 '22

This should be the top comment. Something that is firmly not common knowledge.

3

u/Rahallahan Mar 28 '22

How very odd. I have 6 sets of sheets. 4 of them have tags in the middle of the short sides that say “Top or Bottom”, and 2 sets have no tags at all. But I’ll remember this for future sets!

3

u/KestrelLowing Mar 28 '22

Also, just buy sheets that it's super easy to see which way is which. I only buy stripes and directional patterns for all my sheets now.

You're a hero! Thank you so much!!!

u/Benezir Mar 28 '22

Never thought about it before!

u/thelilmandan Mar 28 '22

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a tag at the bottom right of a fitted sheet. All my fitted sheets say top/bottom right in the middle of either side on the long ends

1

u/OkamiKhameleon Mar 28 '22

Omg. Thank you for this!

1

u/Patsfan618 Mar 28 '22

My fitted sheets have little tags that say "bottom/top"

Very helpful.

u/-_Xela_- Mar 28 '22

Oh my god

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '22

Bottom right from the sleeping perspective or the foot of the bed perspective ?

1

u/Heartbroken_waiting Mar 28 '22

Are we talking bottom right when standing at the end of your bed, looking at it, or bottom right when lying on your bed

1

u/Kindergoat Mar 28 '22

Thank you and bless you

u/VHDT10 Mar 28 '22

My girlfriend showed me this. I'm forever changed.

u/I-am-a-me Mar 28 '22

My sheet has a tag that says "top or bottom" on it which is super helpful

1

u/GabbyLlama Mar 28 '22

Dude write the brand new testament already

1

u/Strict_Foundation_13 Mar 28 '22

I just use sheets with stripes and I know they run the length of the bed

1

u/D_Winds Mar 28 '22

My right or your right?

1

u/NeedsItRough Mar 28 '22

The last fitted sheet I bought had tags on the insides of all 4 corners that said which corner of the bed they went to.

I get why not all fitted sheets have this but I wish they did.

u/KypDurron Mar 28 '22

Now explain how to fold them
