Help Me!

Ok, so who out there has a bed with a headboard and a footboard? (I know trinity and ghraper do, so please help me out here.) I cannot figure out how to get my bedskirt to look right. I've been getting by with it on there crooked but it really, REALLY annoys me! I had it on upside down so it wasn't quite as noticeable, but I bought a new bedskirt and tried putting it on correctly, but it looks like crap! Somebody help me! How do you get it to look right?

Here's a pic of how it looks at the foot of the bed right now:

On top of that, it doesn't come up all the way at the head of the bed:

So how do I fix this? Anyone have any ideas?

(BTW, I can't tuck it on the inside of the sideboards because of the support beams.)

You could cut up the corner to seperate the bedskirt. That way it comes down on both sides of the bed.

We thought about doing that. Lo was worried how it would look and I suggested hemming the edges so that it looks good, but she figured that there HAD to be a better way.

Maybe there isn't.

I do have a hand-held sewer if you want to borrow it. It would take just a few minutes to hem the edges with it.
