The Tipster has oodles of tips coming your way but this one is all my own!
It took me a long time to convince Doug that a duvet cover was a good idea. He had a valid concern: the duvet would get all jumbled up inside that cover. But I gave these handy little gadgets a try and they really quieted his bantering! (At least regarding duvet covers.)
Want to anchor that duvet in place? First, pick up a set of these duvet clips at Target or Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Second, flip your duvet cover inside out and spread your duvet on top of it.
Third, slip both corners inside the teeth of the clip and clamp the clip closed.
It should look like this:
Last, flip both right side in again.
I’ve found that these clips work great. In fact, they’re even Doug-approved!
Anyone else use these? Or is a good shake enough to even out your duvet cover?
I love the look of duvets, but hated the crumpling! I didn’t even know these existed!
I had no idea either! That is a cool tool. Our problem is the duvet is larger than the actual down comforter so I have excess duvet. It kinda bugs me!
Comforter/Duvet covers are often bigger than the duvet equivalent making it essential to use comforter/duvet clips. Handy Accents Duvet Clips are handcrafted and attach to the outside corners. Additional clips can be used along the sides and pillow top area. My queen size cover is about 3″ longer than the duvet on each side. I attached extra clips on the sides and it really looks good. Handy Accents Duvet Clips come in a variety of colors and designs. They’re available online at http://www.handyaccents.com
I purchased the Handy Accents Clips and they did not work for me at all. Furthermore, the seller does not send refunds for returns, only replaces defective clips. If they do not work for you, like they didn’t work for me, you will be out the $$$…not a pleasant place to be.

Theoretically these would work but mine are always coming loose while I try to turn the cover outside-in. I used safety pins the last time, but I think I’m going to sew some ties on the cover and the duvet for the future.
I’ve tried all of these from bed bath and beyond and none work. I lose sleep over this! Haha! Does any one else have a better method?
