How to Fold (& Store) Sheets

Fitted, Flat, Pillow Cases. Professional organizers @ofspaceandmind give us their tips on how to fold a sheet set (including tricky fitted sheets) for both narrow and deep shelves using our Vamika Periwinkle and Cinde Indigo sheets.

The key to a great fold is to consider where you’re storing a piece, then fold it to fit your space.

Pro tip! Stack fitted sheet on bottom, then flat sheet. Place pillowcases inside flat sheet (so you’re never searching for the matching pillowcases).
