Today’s feature is from Future Girl with A New Life For An Old Fitted Sheet, if you’re tired of wrestling with ill-fitting mattress pads, check this out:

I like using a mattress pad. And, although the tops are always nice and padded, the sides are either way too tight, or, like my last one, made of some sort of pantyhose type material that started running the first time I washed it. I’ve actually broken fingernails while wrestling on a mattress pad. They’ve been driving me nuts for years.

Recently, we wore out my favorite easy-to-put-on fitted sheet and I had a light bulb moment. Why not just sew the mattress pad top to the fitted sheet? Well, it wasn’t easy, but it’s totally worth it, because now it’s super easy to put the mattress pad on now.

Visit the site for step-by-step instructions on how to make your mattress pad fit perfectly by repurposing an old fitted sheet, good tip!
