While you might have *finally* recovered from your holiday hangover, those chilly temps and couch sessions (read: Netflix binges) aren’t leaving anytime soon. This makes it the perfect time to refresh your living room decor for the new year with a colorful + cozy throw blanket. Easy fixes like changing out the prints on your gallery wall and draping this fun patterned blanket over the side of your couch can make a huge impact, and it’s something you can do in a single afternoon. Here are 10 colorful throws that will make your space feel rejuvenated, cozy and ready to take on 2016 lounging like a boss.
1. Karma Living Colorful Comfort Blanket ($110): Add a punch of color to your room with this lightweight throw. The alternating colors, patterns and fringe detail mean you won’t have to change any of your current decor to match your new blanket. It’ll feel like it was always meant to be there.
2. Happy Habitat Lattice Throw ($160): While this blanket may seem like a bit of a splurge, the bright colors mixed with the basic blocks of black are a statement worth making. And since it’s made with 80% recycled cotton, buying it will make you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
3. Pendleton Jacquard Blanket ($249): This blanket is so cool (er, warm) that even hipster barbie would go crazy for it.
