The idea of adding a duvet cover to your weighted blanket may sound simple enough, but you may be surprised at how tricky it can be. If you’ve ever tried putting a duvet cover on a regular blanket or comforter before, you know that it can often be quite challenging to get the cover on without feeling like you’re fighting with the comforter itself. With weighted blankets, it can be even more difficult because they tend to be heavier and thicker than regular blankets. But don’t worry! We’ll show you exactly how to put a duvet cover on your weighted blanket so it looks neat and tidy in no time.
Step 1: Choose Your Cover
The first step when putting a duvet cover onto your weighted blanket is to choose the right one for your needs. You want to make sure the duvet cover is big enough so that it fits over the entire blanket easily, as well as being made from material that will keep your weighted blanket safe and free from damage. Some materials such as cotton are generally considered best for this task, but ultimately the choice is yours!
Step 2: Place Your Blanket Inside
Once you have chosen your duvet cover, place your weighted blanket inside of it with all four corners lined up correctly with each corner of the cover. Make sure that there are no bumps or lumps in the material so that everything looks nice and neat once you have finished putting the cover on. This can take some time depending on how much material there is, but take your time and ensure everything is positioned correctly before moving onto the next step.
Step 3: Secure The Corners
Now that everything is lined up correctly inside of the duvet cover, start by securing two adjacent corners together. To do this, fold one corner over its opposing corner and tuck them both into each other until they are secured firmly together. Then repeat this process with the remaining two corners until all four are securely tucked in place. Once all four corners are secure, give them a final tug to make sure everything is snug and won’t come undone while being used.
Putting a duvet cover onto a weighted blanket may seem like an easy task at first glance but trust us—it’s not! However, if you follow these steps carefully (and maybe enlist someone else’s help!) then you should have no problem getting your new duvet cover onto your weighted blanket in no time. Enjoy snuggling up under your newly covered weighty companion!
