Throws and blankets for Australian homes

Types of blankets and throws

Faux Fur

Elegant and glamorous, faux fur throws are an excellent option for winter. You can recreate the luxurious look of a faux mink blanket, for example, in a sustainable and eco-friendly way.

Cotton

Lightweight and breathable, woven cotton blankets and throws are the perfect options for the warmer seasons in Australia.

Wool

Wool throws regulate both moisture and heat and so are a great option for most seasons of the year. A wool blanket or a knitted throw never goes amiss in any household.

A couch throw blanket adds warmth to a lounge and keeps the seating area comfortable between seasons. Throw rugs can be folded over a sofa or layered at the foot of a bed.

Fleece

Fleece blankets are typically made from polyester and are, among other things, extremely soft and warm. They are also very light and manageable.

Advantages of high-quality blankets and throws

Blankets and throws can set the tone in a bedroom or add a touch of luxury and indulgence to a living room. Choose high-quality materials to make the most of this opportunity to express yourself. They can play a huge part in turning your home into a relaxing retreat and cheap fabrics are no match for high-quality cotton and wool.

How to choose blankets and throws that are right for you

Choosing blankets and throws for your home is a great opportunity to have fun with your style. Be playful and don’t be afraid to clash colours, fabrics and prints together with other aspects of your decor. For example, you can contrast your bed throw with the duvet cover, but match it to the curtains. The beauty of them is that they can be moved from room to room as you please. They don’t have to serve just one function. Make sure the blankets and throws match nicely with your bedding like bedspreads, bed sheets and covers. For example, a brown throw blanket can pick up timber tones or contrast with pale bedding.

Pairing a sofa and throw introduces another colour or texture without changing the room’s larger furnishings.

What size is a standard throw blanket?

In Australia, a standard throw blanket is about 130 cm × 150 cm, but you can easily find a range of sizes in and around this. For example, a king sized throw blanket will be around 270 cm × 250 cm.

Where can throws be used?

Throw blankets are incredibly versatile, which is one of their best features. You can pop a throw on top of your bed linen as an additional layer at night. You can toss it on the couch or armchair for evenings in front of the TV or take a lighter cotton throw to the beach as a bit of cover from the sun.

What is the softest material for a throw blanket?

Soft fluffy blankets can’t be beaten when all you want to do is curl up with a new book or catch up on your favourite TV series. For a really soft feel, it’s hard to beat high-quality natural fibres like alpaca wool or plush blankets made from velvet.

How many layers of bedding should a bed have?

That’s completely up to you and likely to change throughout the seasons. You might keep it light in the summer with a duvet insert and cover topped with a light throw. In cooler months it’s time to pull out heavier options like a bedspread or quilt. It’s exciting to mix and match multiple layers for a unique look.

Can you wash a weighted blanket?

Weighted blankets are made from a range of materials and contain various fillers. These can be natural or synthetic. The optimal method of washing your weighted blanket is determined by the materials it is made from. You might only be able to spot clean or hand wash it, though machine washing is common. Check your blanket’s fabric care label for directions.
