Give your bedroom a designer look on a dime, by making your own duvet cover. Here’s how to do it in five easy steps:
1. Buy two flat sheets the same size as your comforter. For the best prices, try discount stores and white sales. If you’d like, decorate them with fabric paint.
2. Place the right sides of the sheets together, and sew straight lines down three sides
3. Turn inside out.
4. Attach closures—like Velcro, snaps, buttons, or grommets and ribbon—to the fourth side
5. Insert your old comforter, and admire your handiwork
