Discovered in a burial site in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey), this ancient blanket was made from wool and dyed with natural pigments, showcasing that even thousands of years ago, people loved to add color to their living spaces with textiles. This tradition continues today with the vibrant, colourful throws that can add a splash of personality to any room!

How to choose the right colourful throw for your home decor

1. Match with Existing Colour Scheme :

  • Look at the dominant colors in your room and choose a colourful throw or patterned throw that complements or contrasts nicely with them.

2. Consider the Room’s Purpose :

  • For living rooms, opt for vibrant colours that energise the space.
  • For bedrooms, softer, more relaxing hues might be more appropriate.

3. Think About Patterns and Textures :

  • If your room has a lot of solid colors, a patterned colourful throw can add visual interest.
  • Conversely, if your decor features many patterns, a solid-colored throw can provide a balancing effect.
  • Consider the texture of the throw as well; chunky knits can add warmth, while smooth fabrics can lend a sleek, modern feel.

4. Seasonal Changes :

  • Switching colourful throws seasonally can keep your decor fresh. Bright, airy colors for spring and summer; warm, rich tones for fall and winter.

5. Personal Style :

  • Ultimately, your colourful throw should reflect your personal taste. Choose colours and patterns that you love and that make you happy.
