15 Eco-Friendly & Organic Blankets for The Best Snuggles
The Best Sustainable Blankets for Your Home
What feels better than curling up with a cozy blanket after a long day?? And what makes it even better is knowing your blanket is eco-friendly and sustainably-made. We have quite the collection at our house, so I added some of our favorites!
What makes a blanket ‘sustainable’?
When looking for sustainable blankets, the first thing we look for is the material. Is it made from a natural, eco-friendly fabric? Each of these blankets is made with sustainable fabric, and many are labeled ‘organic,’ meaning they have gone through a stricter farming process than conventional fabrics. Next question - are they ethically made? We need to know if the person behind the product was paid a fair wage in safe working conditions. Finally, are they cozy and made to last? We want them to be practical and future staples of your home you can enjoy for many years.
