I make it properly when I change the sheets, but otherwise, rarely. Occasionally I get inspired to do it because it does look nice, but I'd rather have the rooms we spend awake time in tidy so they are a priority.
We keep the bedroom door shut anyway, because otherwise DS is in their doing all sorts of cheeky things, or the air-con is on in the living area during the hotter parts of the day at the moment so we keep everything else shut up, so it's not like it gets looked at. And we only have a sheet on the bed anyway this time of year, which gets scrumpled up or pushed to the end of the bed within a millisecond of getting into bed, so it's a bit of an exercise in futility. In winter when we have a doona I'll straighten it up a bit so that it doesn't get scrunched up inside the cover, but that's about it.
My mum is one of those 'beds must be made to within an inch of their lives' kind of people so I think I alternately rebel and conform to such fussiness. But mostly rebel.
