What the hell do you do to cover the boxspring?

Umm... well I just got my mattress, which is just set up with a frame, boxspring, and mattress, and my queen comforter isnt that large so all of the boxspring is showing the normal white color. What do I do to cover it?

its called either a bedskirt or a box spring cover. a bedskirt hangs down over the box spring to the floor, box spring cover goes tight around the box spring.


I remember first moving out and having to learn this shit

A lot of the time the manufacturer makes all pieces for a complete set: top sheet, fitted sheet, pillow cases, shams, AND bedskirt. Go back to where you got the sheets and see if it was an option (sold separately). Might be available, unless you got 'bed in a bag' or something

One thing in this world that annoys the shit out of me is when people have a bed with no headboard and footboard. I could care less of you are a bachelor or not, go buy a damn headboard and footboard!

I spent the priority/majority of my money on the bed so I can sleep peaceful...who cares about a head board and foot board. Damn bed sets cost way too much dough.
