Satin comforter is driving me NUTS!!

**sourpuss** · 02-17-2008, 09:12 PM

How can I keep it from sliding off the bed?

**sweetie27** · 02-20-2008, 04:11 AM

UGH! I have one too! Not only does it slide off the bed, it can get very hot! If you find out make sure to let me know!

**sourpuss** · 02-20-2008, 07:56 AM

Yeah, it's hot as h3ll too! Erg! ...and I threw the receipt away. Hopefully someone here will have a trick for us.

Mmmm did you throw it away in the end?

I tuck the end in under the quilts, and the end sides in, letting the sides flow, it never ever moves.....

Well, not when i sleep by myself anyways.....

**sourpuss** · 07-24-2008, 06:56 PM

I still have it, and it's still driving me nuts. I can't tuck it in because I feel trapped. Haha.
I have a feeling I'll just cut it up and make curtains.

We had those "satan" sheets.... Grrr! they look all smooth and sexy and then... they stick to your skin ouch. We figured out what we really wanted was SILK!

Sooooooo nice...

Ok, so yesterday I safety pinned a big piece of flannel to the back and that seemed to keep it from slipping. I'll give it a few days and see how it goes.

I soooo understand...

I just got rid of mine... The thing took my mojo away!!!

I just had an idea... velcro ... velcro the satin sheet to an other sheet... or sew a cotton sheet underneath...

The satin sheets are pretty to the eyes but so impractical for human use!!!

I have an idea... make strips and wrap your SO in it... Make yourself a human gift out of the man of your affections!!! Then, slowly unwrap him when the "mood" strikes!!!

I know I am being silly... I really am in the mood to unwrap "something" though...

Aurevoir!

Make a duvet cover for it. You can use a couple of nice cotton sheets, just stitch them up like a giant pillow case. Because the satin is so slippery you may have try this little trick; get some good sized coat buttons and sew 4 or 5 on to two edges of the comforter, make coresponding buttonholes on the duvet, that way you can hold the duvet in place on the comforter but remove it easily for cleaning.

Seems like everyone tries satin and no one likes it, makes you wonder why they keep making it. Nothing like good quality cotton or linen!
