It’s official: I’m a blanket addict. In pretty much every room of my house, you’ll find blankets and throws. Two on the sofa, one in each bedroom and several spares in the cupboard for guests, obviously. I think I have a problem. A very cosy problem.
You see, the thing with blankets and throws is that they are so versatile. Some are meant for cold weather, super plush and fleecy to keep you warm on the sofa. Some are designed to tie a colour scheme together, merely a decorative addition. We have outdoor blankets, indoor throws, dog blankets and baby blankets, sharing blankets and sentimental blankets - the list goes on. I’m calling it - blankets and throws are the MVP of the furnishing world.
If like me, you’re finally accepting your addiction and saying it loud and proud, then you should reward yourself by (you guessed it) buying another blanket. Here are some of our favourites to keep you cosy on the sofa this autumn.
Combine with your fave loungewear set and a glorious-smelling Yankee Candle and you're golden.
