Drapes and coverlets come folded and packaged in plastic zipper bags. For that reason, it is imperative that these items are ironed/steamed prior to use so that they hang/lay right. Pillow covers purchased without inserts come packed in plastic bags. Pillow covers purchased with inserts come packaged separately in plastic bags while inserts are placed separately in the same box. This is done so as to maintain and safeguard quality of the pillow cover. At the time of receiving order, it is best for customers to iron/steam pillow covers before stuffing them with inserts.
