What's the difference between a pillow sham and a pillowcase?
What's the difference between a pillow sham and a pillowcase?
Pillow shams are decorative pillow covers with a structured front face and a wrapped envelope or hidden-flap closure on the back — meant to dress the top of the bed during the day and typically removed at sleep time. Pillowcases are functional sleeping covers, open on one end. Most styled beds use both: shams during the day, pillowcases for sleep, swapped out at bedtime.
Which sham size should I pick?
Which sham size should I pick?
Match the sham size to the duvet size you're styling beneath. Standard shams (20"×26") pair with Twin/Twin XL or Full duvets. Queen shams (20"×30") pair with a Queen duvet. King shams (20"×36") pair with a King or Cal King duvet. Most beds use one pair of shams; Kings often use two pairs for a layered look.
Can I mix sham fabrics across the bed?
Can I mix sham fabrics across the bed?
Yes — many styled beds use one fabric for the duvet cover and a contrasting fabric for the shams (e.g., a linen duvet cover with cotton velvet shams). The pillow shams sit at the top of the bed where the contrast is most visible. Stick to the same color family for cleanest pairing.
How do I care for these shams?
How do I care for these shams?
Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Skip fabric softener (coats natural fibers). Silk pick stitch shams need silk-cycle washing in a mesh bag and hang dry only. Quilted and embroidered shams hold their decorative finish best when washed on a gentle cycle.
