What is a Euro Sham?

Wondering what a euro sham or a euro pillow is? We're here to help!

A euro sham pillow (often known as a euro pillow) is a square pillow used decoratively on beds, usually placed behind standard, queen, and king sized pillows. The traditional size for euro sham pillows is 26" x 26". They are usually covered in a decorative pillow case known as a Euro Sham.

What is the Best Way to Style a Euro Sham?

Euro sham pillows are great ways to accessorize the bed. A good strategy is have euro pillows with shams matching the duvet cover used. In this case, usually the euro pillows are placed behind textured or plain complimentary standard pillows. Alternatively, one can flip the motif and have textured or plain euro shams paired with standard shams that match the duvet cover. Be creative and have fun with the options!

What are Euro Shams for?
