THE BEDROOM GUIDE

A finished bed without lifting the mattress

A wrap-around bedskirt brings a soft ruffled edge to the bedβ€”and lets you leave the mattress where it is.

Start with the space below the bedding.

Sheets and pillows can look just right while the box spring and under-bed storage are still in view. A bedskirt covers that lower edge and gives the bed a more finished look. The useful question is how it goes on.

The elastic band changes the setup

A traditional bedskirt can have a platform that sits beneath the mattress. CGK’s Ruffled Elastic Wrap Around Bed Skirt uses an elastic band around the bed instead. There’s no mattress lifting and no tools needed for the wrap-around setup.

Work the band around the edges, arrange the gathers and check that the ruffle hangs evenly. Take a moment to check the corners and any footboard before deciding where the band should sit.

Measure the drop before you choose

This bedskirt has a 15-inch drop. Measure the gap you want to cover, following the measuring guidance on the product page. CGK recommends a drop about two inches longer than that gap; its example is a 15-inch drop for a 13-inch gap.

Choose the bed size separately from the drop length. The size controls how the wrap fits around the bed, while the drop controls how far the fabric hangs.

Let the ruffle finish the room

The brushed microfiber fabric creates a soft ruffled edge. Choose a color close to your sheets for a coordinated bed, or a quieter neutral that can stay in place when you change your duvet.

The bedskirt can cover the box spring and the view of storage beneath the bed. Check the chosen size, color and measurements on the product page, and follow the care label when it’s time to wash.

A few useful details

Do I need to lift the mattress?

The CGK elastic wrap-around design is intended to fit without lifting the mattress or using tools.

How long is the drop?

This product has a 15-inch drop. Follow the product-page measuring guidance and check the gap on your own bed before ordering.

Will it work with every bed frame?

Check the layout of your frame, corners and footboard, along with bed size and drop length. Those details affect how the wrap and ruffle can sit.
