Erin, inventor of the Bedskort fitted bed skirt.
Why does my bed skirt keep moving?
I asked that question for 18 years.
Hi, I’m Erin, and welcome to the Bedskort family.
For 18 years I owned a cleaning and property management business, and every single day we fought the same battle: bed skirts. It sounds like a little thing. But when guests walk into a vacation rental, a crisp, perfectly made bed tells them, “Relax, everything here is taken care of.” A crooked bed skirt tells them, “Somebody gave up.”
So we’d lift the heavy mattress (always a two-person job), line the skirt up just right, and set the mattress back down. Then a guest would sit on the bed and it would shift. Or the flimsy mesh would rip. And we’d start all over.
Then one day, at a client’s home, I glanced into a bedroom from the hall and saw that the interior designer had put a fitted sheet over the box spring to hide it. I stopped in my tracks. What if a bed skirt was attached to a fitted sheet? It would grip the box spring, stay in place, and you’d never have to lift a mattress again.
That idea became the Bedskort: a tailored skirt on the outside, a sturdy fitted base underneath that won’t rip or tear. Slide your mattress on, and it stays put. Seven years and one patent later, I’m so excited to finally share it with you.
I know the Bedskort won’t solve the problems of the world. But it does make life a little less agitating.
For that, and for you, I’m grateful.
