Warming Up To Fall

By Kathy Passerette, of creativehomeexpressions.com and Buttoned Up’s Home Expert

With the crisp Fall air finally arriving here on Long Island, it has been perfect outdoor weather. Pumpkin picking, long walks, the beginning of leaf clean-up, and just enjoying a cool Fall day. Night time can be just as nice, except sometimes that cool air is not as inviting as you sit to watch television, or maybe you just need a little something while you sit near the outdoor fire pit.

This is the time to bring out those throws! Whether fleece, faux fur or a plush cotton; solid, patterned or decorative, they make a great snuggly companion that makes the cooler air that much more enjoyable.

A throw winds up becoming a decorative accessory, much like your throw pillows, when not in use, as it is draped over your sofa or chair. What an inviting accessory though, as it says “any chill you feel, just snuggle up with me!”. Throws also make for great gifts and with the holidays fast approaching, there are colors and patterns to fit every personality and taste. Here are just a few ideas for Fall and the holiday season.

Not only that, but they make what I refer to as a “throw on the go” with stadium blankets that showcase your favorite teams. It gets cold sitting in an open stadium and I’ll take whatever warmth I can bring.

Just the sight of a throw can make you feel all warm and comfy!
