How do I choose the correct pillow insert size?
For the best look and feel, it's recommended to select a pillow insert that’s larger than your sham.
Rectangle Inserts:
- For a traditional fit, choose an insert the same size as your sham.
- For fuller corners, choose an insert that is 2 inches longer.
- For a firmer feel, size up by 1 inch on each side.
Square inserts:
- Shams 18x18 and smaller need an insert 1" larger than the sham. For example, a 17x17 sham needs an 18x18 insert.
- Shams 19x19 and larger need an insert 2" larger than the sham. For example, a 20x20 sham needs a 22x22 insert.

2. Consult chart below to detemine diameter of bolster insert your sham requires Widths are approximate
9.4" Wide = 6" Diameter Bolster Insert
12.5" Wide = 8" Diameter Bolster Insert
14.25" Wide = 9" Diameter Bolster Insert

Does your bolster look like this?
If so,
Measure your sham’s width while flat.
Use the chart below to find the correct bolster diameter (widths are approximate):
9.4" wide = 6" diameter bolster insert
12.5" wide = 8" diameter bolster insert
14.25" wide = 9" diameter bolster insert
15.75" wide = 10" diameter bolster insert
Once you know the diameter, measure the sham’s total length, then subtract the diameter.
Example: 40" sham − 8" diameter = 32" insert length.
Your insert size would be 8" × 32".

14.25" wide = 9" diameter bolster insert
15.75" wide = 10" diameter bolster insert
Once you know the diameter, measure the sham’s total length, then subtract the diameter.
Example: Sham is 60" long with an 8" diameter → 60 − 8 = 52".
Decide how much ruffle you want after the tie (3"–4" is common).
If you choose 3", subtract 3" from each side: 52 − 3 − 3 = 46".
Your insert size would be 8" × 46".
