A bedroom comforter set is not complete without a linen euro sham to set the look. A euro sham is a decorative covering for a European shaped pillow that is slightly different from a standard sham. A standard sham can fit a regular queen or king size pillow. A linen European sham fits two queen size pillows or 1-euro size pillow. A European pillow normally measures at least 26" x 26" and the most common type of European sham measures 20" x 26". These linen shams normally measure up to a 230-thread count and are made from 100% cotton. These specifications make them one of the softest and most durable shams on the market.

Linen euro shams match certain bedroom comforters perfectly. They greatly enhance the overall appearance of the bedroom from a simple comforter and pillow. They are stacked and decorated throughout the bedroom to make it appear more harmonized and balanced. Because they come in all different colors and patterns, changing the look of the entire bedroom is easy to do with just one or two different linen European shams, allowing you to achieve that unique and special look in the room with minimal efforts and expense.

You can purchase a linen European sham from various online websites and in your local retail stores. There are many different manufacturers of euro shams. Therefore, it is easy to find a wide variety of them in the same location to choose the perfect one for your bedroom. Some are sold individually and some sell with the actual bedroom set. Purchasing them separately allows the set to have more of a personal touch. Some people may prefer the matched look the linen euro shams give in the packaged set, while others appreciate a more personal feeling.

Purchasing linen euro shams separately, you will find there are an unlimited amount of fabrics and patterns to choose from when individualizing your bedroom look. While all the different designs are very impressive, there are a few that are more popular than the other designs. These designs include beading designs, imprinted designs and threaded designs. Designs that are more popular are also more expensive and include the pin tuck design, the poplin tailored design and the embedded stripe design.

In addition to the different type of designs available, there are also different filling inserts on these shams. These most popular inserts are the feather or down inserts. The more cost efficient sham is the other type of insert called the poly fill.
