Yesterday I was bored and even with working the computer, like posting in mylot, I was still bored. So I decided to do some laundry while working the computer so I decided to wash my sheets on my bed. It has been a week since I changed them so I thought it was time to do them again. I usually change my sheets about every 10 days but this week I decided to do them sooner, How often do you change your sheets on your bed? I clean houses for a living and most of the houses that I change beds, I do it every two weeks since most houses I clean, I clen every two weeks. So I don't think every 10 days is so bad when a lot of people wait 14 days. So share with me, how often do you change the sheets on your bed?

Okay, I'll share. I wash my sheets every week. I wash a ton of towels every week so the sheets sometimes go in with a load of those too. I also wash the comforters every other week and I wash the pillows quite often as well.
You may think this is excessive, but I have allergies and feel the need to do more than the amount of cleaning I would do otherwise. I do love the feel of clean fresh sheets on a bed, especially in the summer. Since I am now spoiled, if my allergies ever go away, which is doubtful but, I would need to wash the sheets as often anyway.

I am pretty anal about my house and spend a couple hours everyday cleaning. My sheets get changed twice a week. My husband is gone right now so both of our big dogs have been sleeping in bed with me. Their dog hair drives me crazy so I wash the bedding regularly to keep it at bay.

Wow, twice a week. Good for you, I wish I had the energy to change mine more often. It is just a lot of work since my new bed is so big, king size, and I have so many pillows on my bed, it takes me about 15 minutes to change it. Lazy me.

Yep, I change my bedsheets about every week or 10 days as well. My grandson is with us evry other week-end, so his get done a little less often, evey 2-3 months. Today, I did laundry and cleaned and rearranged the laundry room (my laundry deterg storage shelves, plus other storage as well. All this while chatting on Mylot and at my GH website as well! Gotta love multi tasking and checking the computer gives much needed breaks and rest between the work! Thanks for asking. Putting away my laundry tonight, in between the typing as well!

I wash my sheets every two weeks. It's not because I'm lazy, it's because of the cost. We have a king size bed and the last sheets I bought were 78 dollars. That was at Sam's Wholesale! Washing them too often will make them fall apart quicker so, I wait.

I also change the sheets every two weeks. This is the longest time I can stand with. Otherwise, I can’t even sleep with comfortable feeling. I love to sleep on fresh and clean sheets, so two weeks is the maximum length I can have with the sheets.

I change the sheets on my bed every Sunday. After sleeping in them for a week they are pretty rumpled and for me I LOVE the feeling of getting into a bed with clean, snug fitting sheets. Don't ask me why.....just an odd thing that I find pleasue in...ha!

I just changed mine too and it really depends....I usually change them when the mood hits me so it's anywhere between a week and two weeks. Today is beautiful out so I am going to hang them out on the line! They will smell so good in the drawer and even when I put them on the bed next time!
