How To Choose The Perfect Pillow Cover?
The innumerable choice in the home furnishing products have made it difficult to take decision while buying the best products. This is not only for one o two products but for the entire range of home furnishing items. Let us take the case of pillow covers. You have the choice of fabric, pattern, designs, colors, styles, brands, price and appearance. The result is when you go to the market you are confused which pillow cover to pick and which to leave.
Here is the quick guide to buy right pillow cover
Silk Pillow Covers
Most of the silk pillow covers are meant for living room only as these are not easy to maintain and wash. Some of the fancy and decorative silk pillow covers require dry-cleaning after use. So go for these if you can afford it.
Leather Pillow Cover
Leather pillow cover is not so comfortable during warm weather as it does not breathe like fabric. Also leather pillow cover looks good on sofa or couch pillow.
Cotton Pillow Covers
If you are looking for something that can be used daily then cotton pillow covers are the best. Also the organic ones are hypo allergenic so safe if you or anyone in your family member is allergic towards dust or mites. Cotton pillow covers are available in too many colors, prints and designs that is hard to resist these in the market. Cotton pillow cover matches with all kinds of decor so one of the must to buy things.
Velvet Pillow Covers
These are for formal use and placed in living or drawing rooms. Like silk, velvet pillow covers also need dry-cleaning although you can wash these in a very mild detergent at home also.
Satin Pillow Covers
Here is a good news for you. Some studies have shown that if you use the satin pillow cover at night during sleep then you will have good hair and your aging will be delayed as satin is so soft that it will not affect your skin in any way.
Wool Pillow Cover
If you are living in a very chilly weather then you must buy the wool pillow cover. The one from lamb's wool is the softest.

I just hung new velvet drapes from pottery barn and they are beyond wrinkled. how can i remove the wrinkles?
Supposedly they are dry clean only.. what is your advice?
If you have room in your bathroom, hang the drapes up and run a hot shower for the steam. You can use a steamer but don't get really close to the fabric. Using the steamer go from the back side of the drapes. You can also use your iron, again from the back.
