The items that will be included in a comforter set will depend on who fabricates it. Everyone seems to put various thing in, and you get what you are willing to pay for. A good comforter set will consist of a comforter, pillow shams, a bed skirt and a set of sheets. Most sets will have all of those or a combination of a few of them. If you buy a really expensive set it will not only last a lot longer, but it might also include matching curtains. You may even get a matching wallpaper border being sold with it, though it won't be part of the actual set.
I remember my first comforter set very well. It was Strawberry shortcake, but I'm not sure it was part of a comforter set like the ones you can buy today. Maybe it was, but I believe my mother bought every item separately. I had the pillows and the comforter along with a bed skirt that I never used, and there were curtains also. My mother must have talked with my grandparents about the comforter set at that time because they gave me a Strawberry Shortcake lamp to go along with what my mom had bought me.
I am being careful not to get my child a comforter set that she will not like as much as she likes some other things that she possesses. I remember that I like Strawberry Shortcake, but I believe my mother liked her more than I did. I would have preferred to get something else if I had had my own choice back then. I made certain what I got for my daughter is nice looking, but will go with my different interests, and I allowed her to tell me what color. She asked for pink, so that was the color theme I got.
