I'm so thankful I found these things! I

My queen-size dust cover is significantly larger than my queen-size feather block and I've literally spent years filling it up and adjusting it every time I make the bed. Such a royal PITA! Well, not anymore. These pieces hold it in place like glue, and I haven't even had to adjust it in the months I've been wearing it. Although I didn't time it, it took quite a while to install them because I knew they would only work if done right. I placed them as close to the edge of the box spring as possible, about 6 inches apart, and used a few on the bottom two corners, folding in the excess like I'm patting a gift, and holding the folds in place with the screw Pencils. I only broke one of these, and that was before I could screw it in. I also made a "seam" down the middle of the box springs, folded in all the excess boot material and secured with padding. T pins. This helps keep everything in place if the mattress is moved while the bed is being made. Admittedly, the whole process was a little time consuming and a bit difficult (I'm in my 60's and my fingers, knees and back hurt afterwards), but the end result is totally worth it to me. In fact, they work so well that I decided to put them on the other two beds as well. I'm so thankful I found these things!
