Blankets: a use for every room of your home.
Back at the beginning of our human history, we used to protect ourselves with animal skins. We gradually started to braid clothes with animal and vegetal fibers, discovered the strings and how to lace them. With time new tools allowed our techniques to create better clothes warmer and with a higher resistance to our environment.In the Middle Age with the boom of trade, in Occident the sheets trade allows the circulation of various materials between countries (for example wool and sheets products from Flandres and plants for tints from Italy). It’s finally in the 17th Century that beds started to compile a lot of decorative elements to show the social status of the owners.
Until then, the components of the bedroom and bathroom only had a functional purpose. Nowadays there is a whole world of brands and products only to decorate your home. Every single one of the rooms can create a particular atmosphere, using subtle objects as the blankets. Primarily used to warm the bed, the throw blankets have been “banished” for a while of our houses because of its old-fashioned aspect, sometimes particularly ugly. But thanks to the fashion world that reinvent itself, blankets became again a must-have element in the decoration of our homes. More and more often they are just used as accessories. Depending on the season, you can change their colors, so it suits better the atmosphere and the rest of the decoration of the house:- During the summer, we want fresh air, so choose light and soft candy colors. Take some furniture outside so the blankets you want to keep using can be used as accessories on some chair or table garden.
- With the autumn, we want to tide up everything and some warmer colors. Depending on your taste you can accentuate the palette that you normally have. The thin blankets that you have start appearing in the living room.
- Winter is here, we want to be warm, light on candles and see some rough materials like wood. It’s the perfect time to use your thicker, warmer and softer throw blankets, mostly white, powder or animal print to cover yourself up in the sofa or on your bed.
- When spring is back, you can make space for your plants and a lighter decoration. Play with a new set of blankets, lighter than the winter ones but with different colors than the autumn: play with a more pastel palette.
