apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I used to make the bed every day -- and then we got the Second Cat, who thinks it's her territory. Someday, she'll settle in and I can have a presentable bedroom again.

Someday.

I cook, I don't clean.
I might fluff the duvet out flat - does that count?

Everyday. 'Cause Martha says so.

ugh.... i'm so notorious for not making the bed. But i do admit that there's nothing like climbing into a crisp cool bed on a warm night... i'm bad. i really should make my bed.... like enrique pointed out.. like martha.. everyday. I guess it keeps the bugs out too..

I make my bed every day because I need an island of sanity in the sea of activity. I don't rebel against it; I embrace it. Sometimes I put all the pillows on; sometimes I don't. But knowing that the pillows, feather bed and duvet have been shaken and fluffed makes getting in that much more personalized and invited. Sometimes I pray while I make the bed, for blessings, peace, and joy for those who sleep there.

I was hoping to check a box that said "When my mother comes to visit" or better yet, "When a male suitor approaches."

Am I the only person who doesn't really ever make her bed and yet wants others to think she always does?

I must admit I make my bed every morning.

I read that it's actually healthier to leave your bed unmade. It airs out the sheets...perfect for me.

I even make the bed before I have my coffee! My bed is right inside my apt. door so I make sure it's presentable at all times. Besides, there are so many pillows on my bed that I have to take off at night that I HAVE to make the bed just to get them out of the way during the day. Also, I like the way a nicely made bed looks.

Ever since our home was broken into, and the bedrooms trashed, I have made it a point to make my bed everyday. It give me comfort to walk by my bedroom and see it all tidy and neat!
