    How many uses dust ruffles?

    I have been using one on the guest bed for about 2 yrs. I don't think I have had a pleasant time changing the linens the entire time I have used it. It is frilly and white and I have stopped trying to keep it straight and when I put the bottom sheet on the dust ruffle gets pushed under the top mattress and today when I washed a nd changed that bed I had had it (this was after the pee pee incident and I was already stressed). I removed the aggravating thing and at this time it is lying in the middle of my floor waiting for dh to come home so I can tell him he can have it for a wiping rag.

    So
    Do you like them, love them, use one, want one?

    I keep one on my bed but my DD's bed has drawers, so can't use one there. I like mine, there aren't real frilly or anything tho.

    I have one on my bed. Only cause Dh puts anything he can't find a place for goes there. I quit trying to clean it out, since it just ticks me off.

    I even have a pool stick there, I don't know what he is thinking...

    Can't use them. Trying to vacuum under the bed would be a pain. Too small in my apartment to maneuver.

    I have 2 pool sticks in cases under my bed, LMAO!

    And the dust ruffle hides my dust bunnies. If you can't SEE them, you don't have to clean them as often!

    I like the looks of them but don't have them on my bed. I won't say why or you'll think I'm weird but it has to do with bugs.

    Have then on both beds, hides all the junk I have stored underneath.

    We have them on all of our beds except on my youngest sons, he has a captains bed with drawers.
    I like them because they cover up the ugly boxsprings.

    I'm with hippie on the dust bunnies cept mine can get to be dust hippos sometimes. Y'all dont realize how much dust you have in your house until you have had hard wood floors.

    I use them on my bed and DD's bed. I like that it hides the box springs. My boys have bunk beds, so they don't have them.

    I use them in my guest room but have the dust ruffle pinned down. I have a huge comforter on my bed that goes all the way to the floor so no need.
    Be who you are and say what you feel, those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
