Let’s face the facts: Who actually knows how to fold a fitted sheet (like, besides hotel housekeepers, who are essentially magical creatures)? That’s right: No one.

Seriously, doesn’t it feel like every YouTube tutorial, every how-to article, every piece of advice is just…wrong? There’s never one way that gets the sheet to look neat. Fitted sheets are just the worst and should just be thrown into a ball into the linen closet until further notice.

One grandmother named Terri Estep Metz totally feels our pain of attempting to fold a fitted sheet. But she didn’t swear them off forever. Instead she came up with a method for a much more fun way to do it, while also poking fun at the fact that it’s the hardest thing in the world. (Okay, and the method isn’t really a method. But you’ll see what we mean in a second.)

The best part is, she’s hilarious while doing it. She actually has us in a knee-slap laughter over the amazing video she shared on the matter.

“So, I just got my sheets out of the dryer, and I always hate that because I hate folding sheets,” Terri starts off saying in a video. “But, I know everybody does, so today I’m going to show you the easiest way ever to fold a fitted sheet.”

Okay, Terri, show us what ya got. Well to our surprise, Terri begins by laying the sheet on the ground and then…gets inside of it. She puts each of her legs into the corners of the fitted sheet, sits on her bum, and then hooks her arms into the other two corners.

With her legs spread eagle and her arms out wide, she looks something like a fitted sheet starfish and we can’t stop laughing.

It doesn’t end there, however—Terri then lays down on her back with her feet and hands still hooked inside the corners.

“You may be happy to lay down, because you’re already wore out at this point, because folding sheets is nonsense,” she says.

And we’re dead.

The next step? Slowly roll your entire body over from the left to the right, so that you’re basically covered with the entire fitted sheet on your side. Terri demonstrates a few haphazard tucking techniques after that. Then she frees a hand, frees her legs, and, and she puts it, at this point, you want to “gingerly roll your body out.” Probably as to not disturb this weird shape your sheet is likely now in.

Once you get up, you can then begin folding your sheet from the left in, making sure to fold it three times until it’s…not folded well at all! Voilà!

“Bingo, baby! Is that not beautiful?” Terri asks, holding up a messily-folded fitted sheet. “Shove that baby in the linen closet, and be proud.”

After this amazing video, we now know two things: 1) Terri is our spirit animal and we love her and 2) There’s no effective way to fold a fitted sheet. We’re just going to use Terri’s advice and laugh about the situation!
