Abstract:
1. A system for adorning a box springs, the box springs, in use under a mattress, forming a generally horizontally disposed generally planar top surface having circumscribing peripheral edges and a thickness extending from the peripheral edges, comprising: a sheet having a circumscribing border sized to cover the top surface of the box springs and wrap the thickness at the peripheral edges, with the border of the sheet extending at least slightly under, and along an entirety of the peripheral edges of, the box springs when horizontally disposed in use; an elastic band attached to the sheet along an entirety of the border, the elastic band stretchable to position the sheet covering the top surface wrapping the thickness of the box springs, with the border and the elastic band in combination located under, and along an entirety of the peripheral edges of, the box springs when horizontally disposed in use, and compressible to retain the sheet tautly positioned covering the top surface and wrapping the thickness of the box springs; a ruffle having length extending along at least three sides of the box springs when the sheet is retained in position covering the top surface and draping the lower portion of the thickness of the box springs when horizontally disposed in use; and stitches extending along the length of the ruffle, the stitches directly fixing the ruffle to the a lower portion of the sheet where the sheet wraps the thickness of the box springs, and outwardly disposed opposing the box springs when the sheet covers the top surface and wraps the thickness at the peripheral edges of the box springs; whereby the ruffle, exclusively by the sheet, the stitches and the elastic band in combination, is positionally retained outwardly disposed at the thickness, with the ruffle draping the lower portion of the thickness of the box springs behind the ruffle when the box springs is horizontally disposed in use; whereby, when the sheet covers the top surface and wraps the thickness at the peripheral edges of the box springs, exclusively the sheet, the stitches and the elastic band, in combination, retain the ruffle positioned outwardly disposed at the thickness of the box springs draping the lower portion of the thickness, preventing migration of the ruffle when the mattress is located and shifted in use atop the box springs.
