At Home: 6 Beautiful Throws

There are many benefits that come with owning a leather sofa; being able to wipe it clean easily (I’m a tea spiller), seeing and feeling it age (I’m a fan of folds and creases), having a piece of furniture with longevity, and it being cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter. Having said that, over the past few very hot weeks we have had a throw or two on hand to stop ourselves sticking to it. If you’re thinking, “Wha? She crazy. Who uses throws in the Summer?” I do! They come in very handy to pop over your feet in the Summer evenings and add lovely texture to leather sofas. I rest my case. So in true blogging form I’ve compiled a list of 6 stunning throws for you and your sofa, come rain or shine. I want that one, and that one…

We have a few crochet blankets that I’ve picked up over the years for our sofa and arm chair (one day I will make one!) and also, a couple of National Trust throws which are my favourite (and really good value at £30). I have been coveting the Avoca throws for a while now for their bright and cheery check design – gorgeous! Or the Natural Stripe Throw from Laura Ashley would work perfectly in achieving a classic and homely look. So Summer, keep on keeping on with your hot sticky days, my leather sofa and throws are ready!

Which is your favourite?

    Ah I love this post! I need to invest in a throw – my heart is always in my mouth when I watch my boyfriend eating or drinking on my fabric sofa. I love the Jellybean throw – such a cute name too!
