Decorating With A Faux Fur Throw

By Ruth Cole


Making a room look fabulous while maintaining practicality is not as hard as it may seem to some. There are many small yet inexpensive touches that not only improve a room but can also improve the quality of life. These can save energy, space or time and something like a faux fur throw can go a long way.

These not only look good but are dense enough to keep warm during the cold months. Now these also come in a wide variety and colors that will match just about any decor. One good way to complete a look is too add accent pillows or hang picture frames of a similar color.

Faux fur products have come a long way in recent, as the look and feel is a lot like the real thing. Those made from exceptional quality materials tend to have a similar texture yet remain soft, even after much use. While some can be washed using a large machine, taking a furry throw or blanket to a dry cleaner will definitely keep it looking new longer.

There are also many color choices for faux fur and other luxury blended fabrics. Anyone can choose from blended colors, patterns or bold colors like blue, purple and yellow. Many of these can bring life to any home decor, whether it be fun, traditional, or somewhere in between.

Using a thick blanket or throw in the cooler months can save energy since there is no electricity needed to stay warm. Natural body heat can remain insulated during rest so there are no surprises by having too much or little heat. Besides saving money, these also save money since there is no electrical control that will go out after extensive use.

An area rug or window treatment in a matching color is a nice companion to a throw. However, one made from faux fur should be in a low traffic area and away from pets. Basic care for these is also easy and can give life to plain spaces.

Another way to save energy and create a relaxing look are the use of candles. There are many varieties on the market that include flameless and scented that can last for weeks. Using these instead of light can help save money on the energy bill and warm an enclosed room.

Getting rid of clutter on surfaces can also help a space look better. Instead of throwing things out, storing these items may be the best solution. When storage pieces look nice, it makes it easier to keep things organized.

One good way is to use old boxes or containers with lids and cover them with wrapping paper or paint a desired color that would match the room. Afterward, these can be placed in the most practical space possible. Sometimes, placing storage boxes underneath hard furniture can help to save space.

Being frugal and fabulous has many rewards. Anyone can transform a room with just a few pieces that look luxurious but do not cost a lot. Not only is it fun to create a look fitting of personal tastes but it can also help a bank account balance grow faster.
