Please help me find a 19cm deep small double bamboo fitted grey sheet

Help! DD is autistic and being comfortable in bed means a lot. She has a bamboo duvet cover which she loves, but I need to replace her sheet. She'd like a grey one (any grey).

Bed is a small double - 130x190cm but the mattress is only 19cm deep. At the moment her fitted sheet is for a deeper mattress so it's wrinkly all the time which she hates.

Everything I can find on Amazon (or Dunlem) is for deeper sheets than 19cm, or bigger than 130-190.

I've lost the will to live a bit but also she's struggling and I really want to solve this for her? Thanks!

Thanks but no - that's 40cm deep and I need one that's 19cm deep so it's not baggy x

Could you get a mattress topper to fill the space and prevent the wrinkles?

Yes a topper might be the solution but that seems so ridiculous when all I want to do is buy a sheet!

Expensive, but maybe worth it? Comes in either 18" or 20".

Could you use bed sheet clips to hold a bigger sheet (or a flat sheet) in place?

I completely sympathise as my DS has to have perfect conditions to even think about sleeping!

I was going to suggest this. I needed to attach a waterproof sheet securely under the bottom sheet. I got 4 clips (they look a bit like old fashioned suspenders for stockings) from a shop that sold gadgets and aids for carers/ people with disabilities. This was years ago and I can't remember the name. You could just put the sheet on and then pull the loose bit at each corner tight and fasten it.

Google bed sheet clips. There are loads of them.

Could you get a white one and dye it?

Thanks all, bed sheet clips it is!
