Store bedsheets inside their own pillowcase
Fold the sheet and both covers, then slide the whole set into one of its own pillowcases. The almirah stops being a landslide and you never hunt for the matching pillow cover again.

Sun destroys a bike seat faster than rain does. Any old bedsheet thrown over it while parked outside adds years to the upholstery, and the seat is not scalding when you get back at 4pm.
A layer of newspaper between the mattress and the bedsheet is a surprisingly effective insulator on a cold night in a house with no heating. It crackles when you turn over, which is the price.
Hang a wet bedsheet or khus mat right in front of the table fan and point it at the bed. Air comes through the wet cloth and drops the room temperature by a few degrees. Re-wet it once at 2am. Works best in dry heat — in humid coastal cities it just makes the room sticky.
That is all 4 of them. बस, इतना ही।
