3 Reasons to Treat Yourself to Euro Pillows

Earlier this year my husband and I decided to really focus on and invest in making our bedroom a truly relaxing, rejuvenating and restful place.

After investing in a new mattress, new sheets, new curtains, new pillows, new comforters, new duvets, new bedroom décor and more, I wanted to share with you guys a game changing hack to help you create your coziest bed ever.

EURO PILLOWS!!

These big 26-by-26-inch square pillows have their roots in Europe as sleeping pillows, hence the name “euro pillow”. If, like me, you assumed that Euro pillows were just decorative and fluff, think again! The Euro pillow is the ultimate mix of function and fashion. Here are four reasons I think you need to elevate your bedroom and treat yourself to euro pillows:

3 Reasons to Treat Yourself to Euro Pillows

1. Yes, They are Decorative Pillows and They’re Just Plain Pretty

Decorative pillows are the simplest way to elevate your bed from flat and plain and utilitarian to upscale and chic and cozy. Considering that you’re in your bed more than 3,000 hours a year, it’s important to love your surroundings.

2. They Pull Your Entire Bedroom Together

Euro pillows visually add interest and layers to your bed, and if, like me, you don’t have a headboard, Euro pillows are a perfect stand-in. From a design perspective, their large scale helps create a sense of height for your bed, drawing the eye upward and around the room.

3. They Make Your Bed Insanely Comfortable

These decorative pillows are actually quite versatile and not only enhance the look and style of the bed, they also serve a practical purpose. These large, square pillows typically sit behind your regular bed pillows, propped up against the headboard and when you crawl into bed, they provide back support when you’re sitting up. So when you’re in bed reading, or indulging in cup of tea, or what have you, you feel so DELUXE.

If I’ve convinced you to treat yourself to a cozy, comfortable and totally awesome bedroom improvement, just know that it is recommended you have one Euro pillow on a twin-size bed, two on a double or queen-size bed and three on a king-size bed, and you’ll usually want to buy shams to cover them, so keep that in mind. (Still, an easy investment with some awesome options on Amazon!)
