help! duvets....

I have a good 5 inches of extra room at the end of my duvet covers. It frustrates me. Every time I make the beds I have to faff around with the duvet putting the corners back 'up', otherwise it looks messy.

Does anybody else experience this and have advice?

I did measure my king-sze duvet and it is smaller than the standard measurements and the ones stated on the label, I wonder if it's just to do with the 'plumpness'. As exactly the same thing happens on the DC's (all bought from different shops).

Help!

It is annoying, don't think it can be avoided without a daily shake out. Think it might be to do with diff shop have diff sizes of duvets and bedding.

If you sew little buttons into the top inside corners of the cover, and one in the middle, then align a loop of thread/fabric on the duvet, it helps keep it up to the top

I do like heymickey, its great.

I did try using poppers too, but only really seemed to work on our single light duvet as others were too heavy, they just popped off.
