5 Reasons Why Every Home Needs a Cosy Throw

At Kiota, we believe anything we choose for our home should not only be functional but also elevate our space. Whether you are looking to refresh your decor or add a personal touch, our collections of soft, handcrafted throws and blankets are an essential for every home. Let's dive into five reasons you should consider adding one (or two!) to your space.

1. Instantly warms your space

As temperatures dip with the changing seasons, a thick decorative handmade throw in your home is an instant way to help you keep warm and your home inviting and cosy. Whether you're curling up with a good book or relaxing in front of the TV, handmade throws and blankets are a must for creating those cosy moments. 

2. Effortlessly versatile for any interior style 

Throws can complement any interior style - minimalist, Scandi, farmhouse, bohemian, or an eclectic mix of styles. A neutral handmade throw enhance a room's mood without dominating the space or existing colour palette. Drape throws over the arm of a sofa to add warmth and texture, layer on a bed for a relaxed and inviting touch or on the back of an accent chair in your favourite reading nook. When not in use, store throws in a handwoven basket - the contrasting textures add so much interest and character. 

3. Adds texture, depth and interest

Throws and blankets are a go-to for adding layers, depth and interest to your existing home decor. Draping a chunky hand-tufted cotton cream throw or cream cotton frill throw with tassels over a leather sofa instantly softens the look while adding depth and dimension to your space. Layering throw blankets with other textiles, such as cushions and rugs can make your space feel complete and curated. 

4. Infuses playful element to your home

When we introduce soft, handcrafted throws with intricate weaves, tassels, frills and fringes we bring a playful, tactile experience to our homes. It's a subtle detail that doesn't go unnoticed - a great conversation piece that brings personality and invites you to interact more with your space. 

5. They are timeless and trend-proof

While interior trends come and go, we want to ensure that the pieces we choose for our home are sustainable, standing the test of time and consequently reducing waste. Choosing quality, handmade neutral throws is the perfect way to invest in a piece that grows with your changing style and needs.
