DU Poll - making a bed with printed sheets

[underpants]

I saw a discussion of this on Facebook and .... okay I don't want to influence the votes.

When making a bed with printed sheets - the fitted sheet is obviously printed side UP - for the sheet itself how do you put it on the bed?

1. It depends.....

If you plan on flipping the top over a quilt or blanket so that it shows....then print side down so the flipped, showing part will have the print showing correctly. 😜. Advice from a woman who is lucky to sorta pull up a comforter, smooth a wrinkle or two (maybe) and call it a day!

2. Down, so when you fold it over the blanket at the top, the print shows.

That is the proper way. For me Who gives a shit? As long as they are clean and on my bed, I am happy.

12. Why would you fold it over?

I am cracking up about this. Had never heard of or seen a bed with the print DOWN.

20. easier to get in

and under the covers. Have you ever gotten into bed and didn't manage to get under the sheet, just the blanket? Folding the sheet over stops that.

3. Up, of course

Trust me; I'm a stable genius.

11. Yeah in had never heard of DOWN. Never seen a bed with it DOWN.

I had no idea that there was any other way to do it except the correct way.

15. Okay thanks. When I read "printed sheet" I thought the whole thing was printed.

Frankly as far as I've always understood it the sheet shouldn't be visible at all,once a bed is made up. The cover serves also to convey cleanliness of the sheets your guest will be sleeping in.

16. These photos were just the easiest to find - even a fully printed sheet has a front-face

17. I have never seen a bed made up that way

This was all new to me

18. The face-side of the fabric is usually smoother and softer against the skin :)
