Smooth your bed skirt right side face down, into the floor. Measure each of the sides of the bed skirt as well as the top and bottom edge of the bed skirt. Cut pieces of the loop side of the Velcro to these measurements.

Run a bead of fabric glue along the left side of the bed skirt where the colored fabric of the bed skirt meets the typically white thin fabric that goes over the top of the box spring. Smooth one of the long pieces of the loop side of the Velcro onto the fabric glue. Repeat the process for the right side of the bed skirt as well as the top and bottom of the bed skirt. Allow the glue to dry completely.
