Soft and Cosy Blankets
Even with todays wide range of top quality materials, lightweight duvets and luxurious bed linen, for some there is still no substitute for the comfort, warmth and secure feeling of being traditionally tucked-in under a cosy blanket. With a range of patterns, colours and textures, they can add mood and style to any bedroom and can even be used with duvets to dress the bed and add that all-important finishing touch.
Of course, not all blankets fit on top of the bed. Modern electric blankets can be used to warm your bed up and provide that extra touch of luxury on a cold night.
What to look for:
Cotton: Extra warmth without the extra weight. Light and airy they trap the heat yet still allow your skin to breathe. Ideal for warmer months or people who maintain their body heat while they sleep.
Wool: Nothing feels or looks like pure wool, but make sure its top quality for year round comfort and softness.
Cellular: Cellular blankets use a special weave to trap more heat, providing extra warmth without the weight.
Electric: Forget the lumpy old-fashioned hot or hotter kind you probably grew up with, todays electric blankets are safe, simple and thermostatically controlled for all-night comfort to precisely the temperature you want.
