Surging waves send the sharp, salty smell of the ocean swirling up into the air. Grey clouds gather overhead, a ominous reminder that a storm is fast approaching, bringing with it cool gusts of wind and an excuse to head indoors and snuggle up by the fireplace.

Envelope yourself in the warmth and serenity of the Winter Tempest Blanket, as it gently transports you to a quaint little cottage by the seaside. The tranquil world of oceans and rippling waves brings a simple sophistication to this elegant blanket. Perfect as a couch throw, the eclectic, uneven stripes make this an artistic home accessory for any room! From the billowing tassels to the detailed ocean-like design, this blanket will conjure up memories of stormy seas as you snuggle underneath it’s fluffy cosiness with a hot chocolate to warm your icy fingers.
