Hi. Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Company Cotton Secret Meadow Classic Cool Cotton Percale Sham. We’re sorry to hear that the closure style wasn’t what you were hoping for, especially since you love the print. This pillow sham features a 6-inch back closure overlap designed to keep your pillow securely in place. Please be sure to tuck the end of your pillow fully underneath the 6-inch flap, as the overlapping panels help create a cleaner look and prevent the pillow from shifting or showing. An envelope-closure pillowcase typically includes a hidden, overlapping fabric panel that forms a pocket-like enclosure at the end, offering a more finished appearance, and while this sham’s construction functions similarly, we understand that it may not provide the exact look you prefer. If you decide the sham isn’t the right fit for you, we’ve provided the link to our return instructions below. If you need any assistance, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-323-8000 or custserv@thecompanystore.com. Your satisfaction is important to us. https://www.thecompanystore.com/returns
