Pillows/Shams for King Size Bed -- Guidance Needed
Comments (9)Sorry that I misunderstood your question. I use king-sized pillows in pillowcases for sleeping. When I make my bed, I lay them flat at the head. I place a set of king-sized pillows in shams on top of the sleeping pillows so that the wrinkled pillow cases aren't showing.

Comments (8)Thank you! I absolutely love the pillow in your photo. We’re in a condo so furniture placement is tricky. The bookshelf is temporary - we have a toddler and needed something that could attach to the wall and was out of the way. Regarding curtains, that is one thing my husband feels strongly about - he absolutely hates fabric curtains of any kind (even the stack of fully open Roman blinds is too much for him to handle). Our compromise was simple off white linen blend roller shades, those should get delivered in the coming week. Here’s the whole space:...See Morehomebodymom
