Collection: Pillow Inserts

Pillow inserts are the inner, cushioned filling for decorative covers, typically filled with polyester, down, or feathers for structure and comfort. For a plush, professional "karate-chop" look, choose an insert 2 inches larger than the cover (e.g., 22x22 for a 20x20 cover). Most polyester and down-alternative inserts are machine washable, while feathers often require specialized cleaning.

For a full, professional look, use an insert that is 2 inches larger than your pillow cover.

Example:

    • 20x20 cover: Needs a 22x22 insert.
    • 18x18 cover: Needs a 20x20 insert.
    • For covers 14x14 or smaller, the insert should be the same size.
  • Fill Types:
    • Down/Feather: Provides the best comfort, plushness, and ability to hold a "karate-chop" shape.
    • Down Alternative/Polyester: A hypoallergenic, cost-effective, and firmer option, often machine washable.
  • How to Make/DIY: To create your own, purchase pillow-grade stuffing (polyester fiberfill) or repurpose stuffing from old bed pillows to fill a fabric shell.
  • Washing Tips: Polyester or microfiber inserts are usually machine washable (use delicate cycle). Feather pillows may require delicate laundering to avoid clumping, ensuring they are fully dried to prevent mildew.
  • Top Options to Consider
Best for Plumpness: 22x22 inch inserts for 20x20 covers.
  • Best for Shape: Feather/Down blends.
  • Best for Convenience: Hypoallergenic, machine-washable fiberfill
