Shams?

Shams?

Mine look like a mess...flopping all over and distorted. I'm guessing my pillows inside them are not "sham" pillows?

Are there different pillows that go inside shams?

Are they euro shams? If so, those are square. If so, you need euro pillows. I got mine at Kohls like around $7 each and they fill my euro shams perfectly!

See mine are king size regular pillows. I guess I just need more dense pillows? I don't know why they look so messy Chat Icon

I know what you are talking about. the edges don't stand up even with the right size pillow.

I don't have a fix unless you can sew, then you can open up the floppy part and insert batting to fill it, then it will "stand" up. then sew it closed

Yes, this is indeed the problem!! I can't sew, however I may bring these over to the seamstress. I plan on having this bedding for a while so I'm guessing it's worth the investment. I kept trying different pillows and nothing made them look clean and neat.
