ABSTRACT:
A versatile dust ruffle includes means for vertically adjusting the position of the dust ruffle on any box spring and bed frame combination. Further, the dust ruffle includes means for adjusting the dust ruffle to fit the perimeter of any size mattress. One or more resilient strips affixed to the dust ruffle and one or more adjustable straps joining ends of the dust ruffle facilitate the unique attributes of the dust ruffle. Importantly, the placement of the dust ruffle is accomplished without having to move or adjust a subject mattress. The one-size-fits-all dust ruffle disclosed herein eliminates the necessity of time-consuming dust ruffle placement which often requires two people. In the past, one person lifts the mattress while the second person positions the dust ruffle. Moreover, the one-size-fits-all also eliminates the necessity of multiple different dust ruffles to accommodate different mattress sizes. In this manner, dust ruffles can be switched from bed to bed without regard of the mattress size.
