Most people wash and fully dry their sheets before making the bed. But some, like your husband—who learned it from his mother—prefer using sheets that are still slightly damp. It may sound strange, but there’s actually some logic behind it. What’s the Damp Sheet Method? Instead of waiting for sheets to dry completely, this method involves placing them on the bed while still damp. As they finish drying naturally, they smooth out on their own, which means fewer wrinkles and no need to iron.
Where Did It Come From? This method likely dates back to when dryers weren’t common. People would air-dry sheets and often use them before they were fully dry. It became a practical trick passed down in some households.
