Baby, it’s cold outside! If you ask Us, there’s pretty much only one foolproof holiday gift for anyone on your list (yes, even the person who has everything). It’s not a candle — you never know someone’s preference for scent. It’s also not pajamas — one size definitely does not fit all.
Our go-to winter present? A throw blanket. Soft and cozy, this must-have will keep you warm in the coldest months. Even if your recipient already owns a favorite blanket, there’s no such thing as too much comfort! Throws can add a layer of insulation while cuddling on the couch or sleeping at night.
