Her home’s always warm and welcoming, especially around the holidays. Whenever you drop by (whether it’s November, March, or May), she’s always pressing an extra sweater on you. Why not gift her something that can keep her — and all her holiday houseguests — cozy?
With its light yet warm feel, this microfiber throw blanket is perfect for winter hibernation in the living room or summer nights on the back deck. In five monochromatic colors ranging from Pearl to Carbon, it looks elegant enough to leave draped over furniture but not so fancy that she’ll hide it when the grandkids come over.
Measuring 54-by-72 inches, it’s big enough for two to share, and offers enough coverage to keep the couch protected from stains, spills, or pet hair without them covering the whole thing in plastic. If it does get a little dirty, it can easily handle a trip through the washer and dryer.
