Raise your hand if you’re always complaining about being cold. While some are enjoying the refreshing drop in temperatures, we, the perpetually cold people, feel like we’ve been transported to the Antarctica. If you are nodding while reading this, or know someone who fits the description, I just have to let you know about a little thing called an organic throw.
A Body-and-Heart-Warming Gift
An exquisitely soft and comfortable throw rug made out of a 100 % natural material such as bamboo is a gift sure to make anybody’s heart warm up. Not to mention how it can keep one’s body warm too. Yes, throws are designed to cover a sofa, but you can toss it over you whenever you are feeling chilly watching your favourite TV show. The thermal regulating properties of an organic throw made out of bamboo will keep everyone toasty warm in the coldest days of winter, but also in those cooler spring or summer nights when a blanket is required. It’s the perfect gift of warmth whether for a friend or for yourself personally.
The Organic Trend
Why organic? Simply because it’s the latest trend, and for very good reasons too! In the quest of staying healthy, people have embraced the many benefits of 100% natural products. Let’s take bamboo, the leader in organic fabric, for example. First of all, bamboo does not contain pesticides and is completely hypoallergenic – which means it’s more than recommended for people suffering from allergies or skin conditions. Moreover, bamboo is not chemically treated – which means it’s great for babies’ delicate immune systems. If you have a friend that has recently become a proud parent – a bamboo organic throw is a delightful gift that will allow the baby to comfortably play on the sofa with mummy and daddy.
Hygienic and Easy Maintenance
When spending too much time on the sofa, the moisture from our bodies tends to soak in, which creates the perfect conditions for bacteria to grow. And we have to admit, cleaning our sofas is not something we do on a regular basis. Therefore, protecting our beloved seating area with a throw rug is a must, especially one made out of bamboo. Bamboo has a natural agent called “bamboo kun” which acts as a pest repellent keeping the material germ free. Moreover, due to its tight fibre structure, bamboo does not absorb stains or odours for that matter. You will never feel that unpleasant “sitting” smell coming out of a bamboo throw. And because it’s stain resistant, a bamboo throw won’t have to be washed with rough detergents which wear the material out. I just love receiving gifts that require little to no maintenance, so I’ve gifted this wonderful throw rug to myself.
