Was just wondering how often people change their sheets and pillowcases. I think I'm going to start changing pillowcases every other day, my face is breaking out with acne(I'm 38, and I'm getting acne :rolleyes: ) I usually change sheets every other week but I think I need to do it more often too. Just wondering what everyone else does.

mine is once a week unless i have to do it more. but minium of once a week.

Once a week or more if needed....

At least once a week.

Every weekend! It seems like the only time I have time for it.

I change mine every other Saturday.

You're suppposed to change those things??

Just kidding....:laugh:

:lol: Me, change sheets?! Now, that's a thought! lol

I change mine every other week.

I change our sheets every other day! But then again I am a neat freak so don't go by me LOL!

Try just changing the pillowcases everyday if need be.I never broke out until I had my last baby (when I was 30). Now I have nice skin (I'm 41) just have to deal with dryness.

Every week

once a week...sometimes every other depending on how busy I get

I change mine every other week.

Every week unless I just can't do anything then it will be a bit longer. Ours is a waveless waterbed. I have to remove the sides, take off the sheet, tuck in the mattress cover, replace the clean sheet by lifting up all 4 corners of the waterbed, tuck it in, replace the sides, place the top sheet, place the bedspread, and change the pillow cases. Takes me a good 20 min. to do this and by the time I am done I am exhausted. If dh complains that the sheets have been on too long I explain that I'm not capable of doing it right now and if he wants them changed he will do it himself. He hasn't made the bed yet in 3 years so I guess he can live with it. LOL

Although I might add that in the real world where life is normal, I think they are supposed to be changed once a week. LOL

Once a week here.

Once a week.

I made a bunch of extra pillowcases though and this may help.

I bought a double bed sized flat sheet on sale, 100% cotton, white and I made 6 extra pillowcases. Perfect, no waste. I used my ordinary pillowcase as a guide for measurements (nope, didn't take it apart, just laid it out, added more for seams and realized I could get 6 exactly from that double bed flat.

I even got the fancy edge from the top of the sheet, to mimic the "real" pillowslips on the top 2.

It's handy to have the extras.

That's a great idea for making pillow cases. It would be so cheap too. Pillow cases are so expensive.

Trying to change sheets every week.

Once a week in the summer every other week in the winter - (sweating)

Once a week.

Forgot to add that by making those pillowcases, out of the double flat sheet I saved about 30 plus $ over buying them on the same sale, that I bought the double flat sheet at.

A friend was with me and she told me this trick.

I can't remember why it was 30$ plus but I worked it out at the time and thats the number that sticks in my brain.

:cool: Thanks for the great idea dozymom! I'm definitely gonna do that, I need to keep my eyes open for a good sale on sheets now.

Once a week too.

Twice a week.:)

Once a week for sure, I love the extra pillow case idea!! Now, I just gotta learn to sew.........

Kim:bang:

We do once a week unless they get dirty before that. :shame:

Once a week here.
Thanks for the great idea Dozymom, I will make have to make some of those.

Blessings,
