Could do a video on super chunky/lumpy items that take up loads of space. I live in a cold climate so all my linens, sweaters, and hoodies are extra thick. I watch these videos and see people filling their drawers with beautiful rows of sweaters (long-sleeved shirts they call sweaters) and I can only fit like 3 of my sweaters in a full sized drawer. My sweaters are like trying to fold a husky in half kind of thick (I would never fold a husky but you get the idea). I sometimes think I should just wear t-shirts and stop going outside altogether.

I have the same problem with my bulkier items. I just hang them now so if that's an option for you, try that. Otherwise it's perfectly normal that they take up a huge amount of space. =) Something Marie Kondo recommends is storying them in some sort of material bag that you can close tight with a drawstring or similar, to contain the bulk.

Laura, if you haven’t found out yet, you can buy sheets - bottoms and tops - separately, not always in sets. And duvet covers can be found with good google search tools 🤣. Buying single sheets tends to be more expensive though unsure why. I feel much better knowing I’m not alone in the - no top sheets - debate. I fold by method #2, only owning two bottoms - one to use, one spare 😄

I do the 2nd method. But, I've seen another method demonstrated by a hotel laundry guy. He folded the sheet like method 2 - but did a triangular pattern in the middle of his process that other say it lessens bulk. I'm going to try it - as I can't see how the bulk could be less with the same amount of fabric. If I find the video I'll share a link on your FB page. I'd never seen this triangle method before.

When I worked in a hospital, the orderlies had a system of folding so that when you changed the sheets and put on the new ones, you never had to shake the sheet up into the air (disturbing dust and germs). You simply put the sheet in the middle of the bed and unfolded it and voila! The ends of the sheet aligned with the ends of the bed and all you had to do was wrap the corners. Do you know this method of folding? I sure would like to learn it.
