Your Top Sheets Belong In The Trash

Oct 13, 2018 by apost team

When you buy a set of sheets, there is always a top sheet in the set. The bottom sheet makes sense.

You cannot wash a mattress easily, so you want something to gather up all of your dry skin and dirt.

The top sheet was normally tucked around the bed for a clean, neat look.

You always got a top sheet in your sheet set, so you probably assumed that it was a necessary part of your bedding. It turns out that top sheets are just a useless constraint. There is no reason that you have to have a top sheet on your bed. It is a scam to charge more for sheet sets.

Worse still, it makes daily life harder than it has to be. If you do not tuck in the sheet, your bed looks messy.

Who actually has time to make their bed each morning?

Your top sheet is like a miniature prison. When you tuck the sheet into the sides of your bed, it keeps your legs from moving freely. You become a human burrito that has to struggle to roll around during the night. You are more than just a burrito though.

Your nightly rest should actually be restful instead of a prison-like straitjacket.

At this point, some people are already wondering about their skin. Normally, your bottom sheet catches dead skin cells so that you can easily wash them away. In reality, your skin is not an issue. You do not have to have a top sheet to catch your dead skin cells.

A better solution is a washable cover. Toss this washable cover onto your comforter, and dead skin will not be a problem anymore. Now, you just have to wash the cover. Your bed will remain clean, but you will not have to tuck in a top sheet anymore.

Your duvet cover should be something lightweight and soft.

Ideally, get a natural fiber to protect your skin. Cotton works wonders as a duvet cover. It is natural, soft and easy to clean. Plus, cotton is one of the cheapest fibers out there. Whenever you feel the need to clean your sheets, take the cover off.

Then, wash it like you would normally wash your sheets. You get to live free of the straitjacket of top sheets.

Once you get rid of your top sheet, your legs are suddenly able to move again. They no longer have to be sweaty and constrained by a top sheet. They can roam the bed freely and move about it in peace. Now, you do not have to worry about your top sheet balling up into a gigantic wad at the bottom of your bed.

You get to relax in a simple, beautiful style of bedding. Instead of shivering under a top sheet, you luxuriate under a duvet.

Better yet, your morning routine just became surprisingly simple. You do not have to rush around your bed to tuck in each corner of the sheet before laying your blankets neatly on top of everything. Now, you just have to shake out your duvet and lay it over your bed.

Think about all of the time you will save over just the next month. Plus, you will get to easily become one of the people with a perfectly made bed without having to do any of the work.

In fairness, there are a few people that this technique might not work for. If you absolutely love your quilt, then a duvet cover will not work. Obviously, you want to have your quilt uncovered so that people can see it. This technique might not work during the winter when you need a comforter and extra blankets to stay warm.

At the very least, you can try this approach in the summertime. This is the time of year when you toss and turn in the heat the most. For at least a part of the year, you can escape from the tyranny of top sheets.

Before you write a comment about the importance of top sheets, give this method a try. Once you realize the freedom of no longer making your bed, you will not want to go back.

You will love escaping from your self-imposed straitjacket. True freedom is just around the corner.
