Fitted sheets for very small bed

7 replies

I'm looking for a fitted sheet for a non-standard size mattress that the inlaws got made for an antique family bed for DS. The mattress is 2'6 by 5'. Any ideas - I have been googling, but thought someone might know somewhere that does fitted sheets for odd sizes......

I don't know other than making them yourself but I've seen a different product that might help you use flat sheets if you don't like doing hospital corners. Kind of elastic with clips at each end - you clip the flat sheet together diagonally across the corners underneath the mattress.

There's a company in Huddersfield called The Yorkshire Linen Company I think who sell odd sized sheets. I think they also make linen up to order. On phone, baby in other hand, can't Google just now, but I would start with 'linen, huddersfield'

We have mattresses which are 2 ft 6 by 5ft 3 and have ikea fitted sheets which are VERY tight but just make it. They might be perfect for that size. Its called LEN.

Woman and Home classified ad - www.linencupboard.co.uk - have never used them but saw the ad.

Anniewoo has found the company I mean. I don't mean the Yorks Linen Company - they are a shop, wheras Linen Cupboard are manufacturers.

If you google bunk bed sheets then these are normally for 2 foot 6 beds, I know there are some on ebay at the moment as was looking the other day.

Thanks everyone. I looked at linencupboard, but they didn't really have one that would work. I have found one though at somewhere called children's bed centres, so very chuffed!
