Every day when we wake up, we usually find the blanket on the bed in a mess, the blanket and the duvet cover are not properly fixed, causing the inner duvet to move freely. Therefore, after a night’s sleep, we need to rearrange the blanket, which is quite messy and time-consuming.

In fact, we only need a very simple tip to easily solve this problem that not everyone knows.

First, you need to take a new disposable face mask, cut off the four corners of the mask, and then cut off the connected ear straps, so that the four strands of ear straps are cut out of the mask. The ear straps of the face mask have good elasticity and are not easy to break, so you can use them to secure the duvet with the duvet cover.

Now, tie one end of the face mask’s ear strap to a corner of the duvet, and the other end to another corner of the duvet to secure the blanket and the duvet cover. Tie all four corners of the duvet and the duvet cover in this way, and you will have an extremely secure blanket, no longer worrying about it being misaligned. Of course, you can also use a needle and thread to secure the duvet and the duvet cover together, but it will take much more time to remove the duvet cover for washing and sew it back on compared to removing the face mask straps.

After handling it simple like that, no matter how we toss the blanket when sleeping, the blanket and the duvet cover will not be separated, and it can save you the effort of tidying up the blanket every day.

In addition, the face mask strap that you have cut off, don’t rush to throw it away because you can use it for other very useful purposes:

First, remove the stiff strip on the nasal side of the face mask. Generally, the nasal strip is made of a stiff material, of relatively good quality, it is not easy to break and can be bent several times for use.

Usually, we can use the nasal strip to seal bags and tie the opening of the bag, or we can also use it to store some data cables, arrange the data cables and then tie them with the nasal strip. Thanks to that, these items will look very neat, not messy, and easy to store, easy to take whenever you need them.

Second, the three layers of fabric in the middle of the face mask can also be removed and used, the three layers of fabric are also different, in general, the inner fabric is softer, friendly to the skin, while the middle layer is the insulation layer, thicker, giving a delicate and soft feeling, used for insulation and filtration, and the outer layer is used for dust protection.

– Now you can use the fabric in the middle to wipe the phone screen, the camera of the phone, because this fabric is relatively thin and soft, so when we use it to wipe the phone, it will not cause wear and tear on the phone screen but still can make the screen look brand new.

– As for the fabric layers in front and back, we can tie elastic bands to the water nozzle to filter impurities, fine sand. Because the inner and outer layers have better air ventilation, tying them to the nozzle will not affect the water output, so you will have a simple and effective filtering device.

It can be said that a face mask has many great uses. Besides its normal function as a face mask, you only need to perform a few simple steps to continue to utilize it to solve some daily life issues.
