The Basics
Maybe this is the first time you've delved into the world of home decor. If that's the case, you're probably pondering over questions like "What are shams?" and "What are bedding shams?" We know it can be confusing if you aren't familiar with these terms.

In short: shams are decorative covers for pillows. Bedding shams are pillow covers designed specifically for a bed. Now you know!

Wondering what the difference is between a sham vs. a pillowcase? Pillowcases are designed for sleeping, while shams are primarily for decoration.

King sham pillows are the most common. These are longer than a queen sham pillow and larger all around than standard pillow shams. King shams look best on a king or queen-size bed. Standard pillow shams are usually better for full or twin beds. Sham sets come with two pre-paired pillow shams for an effortlessly coordinated look. 

How to Build a Bedscape
Do you already own essential bedding components like sheets, pillows and down comforters? Then you're ready to personalize your bed with blue, gold or pink pillow shams for a pop of color. If you prefer soothing neutral tones in your bedroom, opt for white shams.

If the space still feels like it’s missing something, even after incorporating new bedding shams, try adding a different texture or an extra pop of color with decorative pillows & throws.
