For me it's not so much the looking untidy as the fact that it makes the piles of stuff in the airing cupboard very wobbly.
I do as nearlyrich does - I put the sheet, duvet cover, and pillow case inside the other pillowcase. This looks neat, stays stacked, and makes life very easy when changing the bedclothes.0 -

I never thought of this! It is fabulous - no more double sheets in the single pile! I'm going off to do it right now...Is it home time yet?0 -

Oh and mines in an ottoman so wobbly doesn't matter
