My $4 Instant Bedskirt....

I'm really excited about this one.....
The bed in our master bedroom sits higher off the
ground than a normal bed, and has wooden slats down the side that make it impossible to put a bedskirt on....so I have just lived without one...
until yesterday...
I came across another girl's blog with the same dilema....I followed her advice and here is my new bedskirt....

What 'cha think?!? Would you EVER guess this is a $4 sheet from Wal Mart?!?
Well, it is. I bought a $4 twin flat sheet, cut it in half, and stuffed the raw edges in between the matress and box springs.....TA DA!!!!
Take another look...

Now I have the perfect bedskirt, at the perfect length, at the perfect price.....and I'm PERFECTLY happy with it!!!!
HAPPY SUNDAY FOLKS!

So did you sew in folds or just stuff it in. I have the same problem with mine.

That is a great idea! I've been wondering what to do for a bed skirt for my daughter and I have the perfect sheet for it! Thanks for the idea.

I am going to have to try this! I think we have the exact same bed and I have had the same problem. It looks great on your bed!
