Does anyone know an easy...(really easy as I'm not very crafty) to make sheets for the blue standard size cots? They are pretty expensive. I know crib sheets work but I want to be able to stack them without taking the sheets off and just take them off and wash them at the end of each week. Each kid here has their own cot they use everyday.
Any ideas would be great!!

I make sheets like this:

They are really easy. Just measure your cots and cut a piece of material about an inch larger on each side. I fold the edges under twice about 1/2 inch (for a finished edge) and iron, then fold the corners under approximately 1 inch twice (again for a finished edge) and iron. Cut a piece of elastic to whatever length you need (I seem to remember 12 inches) and pin each side into the fold of the corners. Then it's just a matter of stitching all of the edges, reinforcing where the elastic is inserted into the corners. I seem to remember using a zig-zag stitch.

They are super easy, and cheap to make. I can take a picture of what I made if you need it.

I have about six daycare mat sheets that I made that I am selling - due to closing down the daycare. They are kind of like big pillowcases the way I made them. They slip on easily... can wash easily. If you want I can send them to you? If you want to pay for the shipping, you can have them. They fit the standard size daycare mat. I have a bunch of mats too. Let me know You can private message me if interested. You can see a picture of my daycare mats on the lower bottom right part of this webpage I made for all my daycare stuff I'm selling.
