I am a very restless sleeper and every morning I have to remake the bed completely, i.e. rearrange all the sheets. I tried the sheet strap things from a store and they are not any help.

Buy suspenders like the kind men use to hold up their pants. Sew buttons on your bottom sheet, one on each corner. Put the suspenders between your box spring and mattress and attach each of the ends to a button as you're making the bed. At the very least, the fitted sheet will stay in place. As to the rest? Why not buy an extra top sheet, sew them together and make a cover for your blanket or duvet?
I sew a wide elastic strip across each corner. (Sew the end of the elastic on one side, cross over to the other side of the same corner and sew the end of the elastic on.) The elastic goes under the mattress. That works for me.
The store made straps really don't work well. I made my own with strips of elastic and sewed them to the corners of the sheets. It wasn't hard to do and worked really well.
Use waterbed sheets. The bottom sheet and the top sheet are sewn together at the bottom.
Waterbed sheets? Its the top I need to stop popping off...I have tried the elastic holders and I cant sew anything to the bed...its new and it has a cover that is the slick part...
I second sewing strips of elastic on all corners. In the future, buy sheets made for deep mattresses. They won't slip.
