Having the tag at the head of the bed will ensure that the tag ends up at the bottom of the duvet cover when you insert the duvet into the cover.

Grab the left corner with your left hand, and the right corner with your right hand. Pull these two inside corners toward you, out through the duvet cover opening, to turn the cover inside out. Once the duvet cover is turned inside out, once again lay it over the duvet with the opening of the cover near you.

Your hands should look like you’re wearing mittens as you grab the bottom two corners of the duvet. This would be the time that you would fasten any closures that the duvet or duvet cover has so the corners of the duvet stay in place within the cover while you use the blanket. These closures might be buttons or some sort of tying arrangement. You may have to momentarily remove your hands from inside the duvet cover to fasten these closures. Once they are fastened, you can reinsert your hands into the cover.

Be sure to hold on tight as you shake the duvet cover onto the duvet. This will help ensure that all corners of the duvet are spread out to all corners inside the duvet cover. Powerfully shake the duvet and duvet cover as if you are trying to wave a blanket evenly onto a bed. You can also stand on the edge of the bed and hold the top two corners of the duvet and duvet cover, to evenly shake the cover over the duvet. You may have to pull the last portion of the cover over the bottom of the duvet and tuck in the corners.

Give your duvet a little shake and pull on all sides to make sure the duvet is spread out evenly.

Once the duvet cover is inside out, hold onto the corners and shake it a bit to spread the cover out over the bed. Be sure that the duvet cover opening is at the foot of the bed. [6] X Research source

The long side of both the duvet and duvet cover should run along the length of the bed, and the short side of both the duvet and duvet cover should run along the width of the bed.

These fasteners might be small buttons and buttonholes, elastic pieces with buttons, or small strings that tie together.

If you are by yourself, you can roll the duvet and duvet cover from the middle of the bed. If you have someone to help you, you both can stand on the sides of the bed, and roll evenly, together. [9] X Research source

When both sides of the roll have been flipped and are covered by the sides of the duvet cover, even out the rest of the duvet. Flip the middle portion of the duvet cover over the middle portion of the duvet. [11] X Research source

You can use this same rolling and unrolling method to also remove your duvet cover.
