Colossal Christmas Countdown:9 Days Until Christmas! |
|
One of the things I love best about the colder months is snuggling up on the couch in front of a warm fire with those I love. These times are always some of my fonder winter memories and ones that I'll always cherish. Of course, in order to snuggle properly, you must make sure you have the ideal snuggling equipment. This is where a company called Minky Couture comes in. They have an extensive collection of soft and luxurious blankets which also serve as beautiful home decor when not in use. I had the fortunate opportunity to review one of their ultra-comfortable adult sized blankets in my home. Keep reading to learn much more and how you can have THREE chances to win one of these for yourself! |
I absolutely adored the colors and patterns used in the Minky Couture Brooke Blanket. This princely designed blanket had a black and white baroque minky side and a red swirl minky side finished with a solid black ruffle trim. I thought this blanket was gorgeous and couldn't wait to untie the bow wrapped around it and see more!
There is just no way to describe for you how soft and comfortable this blanket is. The best way for me to illustrate it is to think of a baby blanket. When Riley was first born, I couldn't get over how very soft all of her blankets were. They were composed of an extremely downy material that was just heavenly.
I always remember thinking to myself, "Why aren't adult items made of this stuff?" Well, now they are! Minky Couture has found a beautiful and elegant way to make one of the softest blankets I've ever felt. The next step of course was to get my family's reaction to it and see if it would pass the Cleaver family snuggle test!
As soon as my husband felt the blanket, his eyes lit up as he said, "Oooh!" Riley bounded over and wouldn't let it go. She liked it so much that she immediately wanted to lay with it and pretend to be sleeping. Just look at the picture below to see a very happy little girl using a very luxurious blanket!
Next, I decided to gather Riley up and watch A Charlie Brown Christmas with her. Riley didn't object to sitting on my lap throughout the entire show while we snuggled together under our Minky Couture blanket. We laughed and talked about the show and I definitely felt we made a warm, holiday memory together.
The blanket surprised me with its heft, for it felt heavier and thicker than I thought it would. This was perfect for it managed to keep us warm and toasty throughout the show. It certainly passed the Cleaver family snuggle test with flying colors! :)
The Brooke Black and White Baroque and Red Minky Swirl Blanket looks so stunning that it can also pull double duty as home decor when not in use. I love adding beautiful decorative accents to my home and I know that this blanket will look wonderful slung over the back of a chair or couch in our family room.
If you want to have the ultimate snuggling accessory that will also instantly jazz up your home in the process, then I highly recommend finding your perfect blanket at Minky Couture. They have so many beautiful patterns and combinations to choose from, which would look fabulous in any home.
Of course, Minky Couture also offers custom blankets, whereby you can pick and choose which patterns and styles you'd like to have in your very own blanket. I highly recommend Minky Couture blankets for an unforgettable birthday, baby shower, Mother's Day or holiday present!
