    I wash my sheets at least once a week because the fur kids are on my bed a lot. I hang my sheets on the line to dry, they smell so good when you do that.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I don't know, maybe once every two to three weeks. They're never dirty though, they always look the same and they never smell bad, I just wash them because I feel like it. Tango sleeps on top of her own blanket at the foot of my bed and she's also a very clean dog (well, she does shed but I do't mind) so I don't worry about her getting my sheets or anything dirty..

    I love clean sheet day. That being said... I can't remember when I washed my sheets last. But before you get grossed out know that I house sit a lot so I haven't actually been home and lying in my own sheets. lol

    My boyfriend cleans his sheets every other Sunday and that works for me. lol


    *Thanks Ashley*

    I'm a germaphobe about certain things and get grossed out about certain things. But my sheets? They don't gross me out. :P My sheets *ARE* clean, because I shower at night. If I shower in the morning, if just because I want to wake up quickly. If I don't shower at night, it's because I've been in my jammies all day. :P And, I don't do anything **wink wink, nudge nudge** in my bed, so they're clean in those terms too. So no "special" things, no animals, and showering makes for clean sheets! LOL

    Once a week, at least. I think they start to smell funny, otherwise. All five of us sleep together as well. Two hoomans and three cats.

    I change the sheets once a week. We use flannel in the winter and knit in the summer. I have several sets of both types, so it's no big deal.

    Yeah, I like clean sheet day. And, someone told me today that even when you shower, your skin's oils are in the sheets over night. I don't know, though, like I said, I'm not really afraid of germs too much. I know sheets are dirty even when they don't smell, but, I used to not care.

    You guys make me feel like a pig! I was mine about once every couple of months Only because my mom makes me. Astra and/or Molly sleep with me and even then I don't mind having dirty sheets. They feel softer that way. I don't really like how 'new' sheets feel. To me they feel all paper-y. I don't know, I'm just weird like that.

    Lol... wellllllllll don't feel bad anyone, I'm the worst.

    I didn't even know what the PURPOSE of sheets were until recently and didn't really use them because I didn't like them lol.

    usually religiously once a week b/c I love the feel of clean sheets - I spray a little of linen spray or fabric refresher like Febreeze or ALL and sprinkle baby powder over them.
    Clean sheet day rocks.

    Usually every week. Sometimes more based on the amount of shedding in the room, sometimes less. I think the last set took two weeks before I changed them -- out of pure laziness!

    PS: Guess what's in the washer right now? Sheets! I had to laugh when I saw you ask this just as I was washing them.

    same here Staci - I love the linen spray (BBW vanilla lavender or clean linen here) and have to take a fresh shower right before I get in to really enjoy those clean sheets. Clean sheet day is definetely the best - one of life's simple pleasures!

    I have multiple sets of sheets, but use the same ones, over and over on our bed. I wash them every week, sometimes more often. We always shower before going to bed, but still, I love clean sheets!!!
