The word “throw blanket” is quite frankly, always being thrown around. 

What is a throw blanket, REALLY? 

There are so many different things you can do with throw blankets, how do you know which option is best for you? The best part is, you don’t need to restrict it to just one thing. The versatility of throw blankets is what makes them such a great accessory for your home. From giving them to your keiki as a big kid blanket to keeping them in your living room for snuggle time, everyone can find something to use their throw blanket for. 

How you can use a throw blanket

First, let’s highlight the versatility of throw blankets. Take into consideration our Kai Camo throw blanket for example; as toddlers and bigger kids get older, they still want the comfort of their favorite blanket but have maybe grown too big for a security blanket or their favorite swaddle. A throw blanket gives them the familiar comfort of those blankets but in a big kid package that they can feel comfortable and proud to use. 

And the best part about our throw blankets is they are big enough to fit a toddler bed! Giving you a lightweight comforter that is soft, vibrant, and perfect for your “big kid”!

How you can style a throw blanket

There are so many ways you can style a throw blanket. Like we mentioned above, you can use them as a comforter for your little ones, or even add some color and texture to your living room. From hanging your throw blanket over a blanket ladder to keeping them in a basket next to your couch, throw blankets are the perfect accessory that offer convenience and are useful. 

Throw blankets have multiple uses

Throw blankets are always there when you need them. If you want your family to snuggle up on the couch for a movie night, your throw blanket is right there to keep you warm. Or maybe you’re heading to the beach and need to grab a blanket to sit on, your throw blanket is the perfect size and in a convenient spot to grab as you’re walking out the door.
