I'm curious who are the ones who always make their beds!

I always do. DH kicks the sheets and blankets around so much during the night, I almost have to or I won't be able to get into bed properly the next time we try to go to sleep.

This. And it just looks like a mess to me that I can't stand. It only takes a minute, so why not? I do not do "hospital corners" or put all the decorative throw pillows on though. Definitely no time to waste doing that.

DH hates top sheets so all we have on our bed is our comforter with the duvet cover.

I do love when it's made, but I don't ever think to do it in the morning, since I'm up before DH and then our bedroom is upstairs in the back so I never look at it again...out of sight, out of mind I guess.

I do, nearly every day. I also do DD's and DS1 sometimes. DD has gotten really good at making her own bed too. I like the way the bed feels climbing in at night if they are all straight and tucked in. I also wash our sheets once a week. I wash the kids' as needed. Sometimes that means we will go a month or so between washing and or do them several times in one week. Depending on leaking diapers and illness and such

Another every day here! I like the house to be straight, or it affects my mental health. It takes like 2 or 3 minutes. I wash sheets once a week for everyone.

This is us. I couldn't imagine not having a made bed! Either DH or I will do it, depending on who gets to it first.
