This is a bit of a silly one really .Most people I know strip the bed linen off the bed in the morning when they are doing the housework, I sometimes do this too, I just love the feel of nice fresh clean sheets and be the first in the bed, my hubby has heart trouble and have a read then a nap in the afternoon so he is first in bed if I do them in the morning,It is 8 o'clock at night and I have just made the bed all fresh as I do every week but I have done it later so I can be first . I know this is a bit of a daft discussion but I often wondered if anyone else like to do this too . xx

Yes, clean sheets have a wonderful fresh smell to them. They are also crisp and neat. It's fun to be the first in bed and rumple them up. I always thought the clean linen fragrance smells were cool!!

LOL, I was thinking earlier that I would rather be doing housework than being at work. At least it is a quiet day today and not much to do.

I like to change my sheets every other day, I also love the feel of fresh clean sheets more so in the summer time.

lol So you have finally delayed the bed linen change so that hunk of yours doesn't beat you to the nice fresh sheets! I don't think it is a daft discussion at all my darling - in fact we just changed (ok, david did it) about an hour ago and I got straight in cos I love the feeling too! xxxx

lol - sorry for confusing you wee - it was the bed downstairs I was talking about! I still need to lie down a lot of the time, can't sit or stand too long so best to keep control of the sitting room a bit longer! Meant to mail you to let you know Niamh loves Kayleigh and has slept with her since you gave her to her! Thank you honey - that was so sweet! xxx

We change the sheets together in the evening before bed. We both sleep in it so we both change it. Then we each only have 2 sides to tuck, instead of 4 and we decide together wich spread or comforter to put on and we each do our own pillows. Fair is fair, I say share the duty, at least as long as I can get him to. LOL I love the feeling of fresh, clean sheets also. Nothing quite like it.

my hubby helped me too tess . it was really funny but the pillow slips were not housewife pillows , he was trying to find the end to pop them in but the were folded over and buttoned it was a laugh , the quilt too opened at the top and flapped over and buttoned , I had the bed made up and he was still on the 1 pillow lol xx

I love the smell of clean, fresh, crisp sheets and being the 1st one in bed to take all that in is great. Fresh linen smell is one of my favorites. I sleep better with nice clean sheets going to sleep with that smell just like when I wasa kid and mom "still made the bed". Not so silly I think lots of people like this as well just never took the time to think about it.

I love fresh and clean bed sheets on my bed. I wash my bed covers at least once a week because I like them to stay nice, fresh and clean. there is nothing like laying down in a nice clean bed when you go to sleep. I don't like for anyone to lay in my bed if they have not taken a bath either. I like my blankets, sheets and covers to smell good at all times.

One of life's great indulgences (according to me) is to shower and shave my legs, moisturise them and get into a freshly made bed.*Sigh*...heavenly. It's such a great feeling, one of total luxury, I always feel my life is very rich when I have that exp[erience. Thanks weemam. x

I definitely like the feeling of lying in a clean fresh sheet. However, instead of soft, I prefer something a bit crisp. Best if ironed. However, I find it ridiculous to iron bed sheets. After a night of lazing, the bed sheet becomes soft and crumbled.
@weemam (13372)

my sheets are crisp but still comfortable they are Egyptian cotton , If I dry them in the sun I can't get the wrinkles out lol so I dry them in the shade . They are lovely and cool especially in the summer xx
