My Experience With Attaching A Comforter To A Duvet Cover
As someone who loves changing up the look of my bedding, I’ve recently been exploring the world of duvet covers.

Here’s what I’ve learned:
How to Attach a Comforter to a Duvet Cover
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Turn the duvet cover inside out and lay it flat on your bed or a large table.
- Place your comforter on top of the duvet cover, making sure all corners match up.
- Starting at the top, roll the comforter and duvet cover together towards the foot of the bed.
- Flip the duvet cover opening over the rolled-up comforter.
