I change the bedsheets on our bed once a week, midweek. That cannot change for logistical reasons.

Either the pillow cases and duvet cover get ironed straight away and put back on the bed, in which case the duvet cover is nice and flat but doesn't change from week to week (which is boring) or I change the sheets for previously ironed and folded ones, which is more interesting but the duvet cover is all creased .

Another solution is not to iron the duvet cover and pillow cases for a week ie leave them unironed in a cupboard. Which is messy and takes up a lot of space and generally annoys me.

Does anyone hang up ironed duvet covers to prevent creasing? Is there something I don't know about to solve my dilemma?
