Stubborn Sheets Now Stay

After we purchased our new bed, a small but VERY annoying problem revealed itself. After a night of rest the sheets on the corner would also come off! Also, the middle of the bed seemed like it had too much sheet. So I needed something that would keep them down and keep the sheet tight. 

 DUH, use mitten clips from the baby department at Wal-Mart!
I was originally on the lookout for stocking clips, or something along those lines, but this is as close as I could find and they worked perfectly!! 

 Clip onto one side of the corner...

Have your super strong husband lift the mattress while you hook the other side. 

This is what it will look like when you have them both clipped. The bunching in the middle is totally natural and the more you have there the tighter the sheet will be. 

Ta-da, done And the sheets look much better!

(Side note: if you don't have a bedskirt buy an extra fitted sheet to put over you box-spring, it gives the bed a more finished look for a really cheap price. 

And here is the bed after two nights of sleeping through Hurricane Sandy, 
still intact and perfectly held down!
