No-Sew Color Block Summer Throw Blanket

by Jackie Hernandez on April 30, 2014 2,173 Comments

Hello, Jackie here from Teal & Lime.

One thing I have learned in my first 10 years of marriage is we will never agree on the ideal temperature for a room. He always likes it about 10 degrees colder than me…year round. Can you relate?

In the winter, I cuddle up with my faux fur throw blankets. I have baskets and bins in every room to hold throws.  The only downside I see to spring is putting my thick, cozy throw blankets away.

Now with the ceiling fan constantly whirring overhead until late fall, I still get the chills. Remember, my hubby likes it 10 degrees cooler? He also likes a breeze. The cool splash of moving air against my skin gives me goosebumps, even in the warmer months.

This spring I am swapping out my favorite winter throws with some colorful, lightweight throw blankets. They are just thick enough to keep away goosebumps.

Last week, that something was tackling one of the last remaining builder’s beige walls in my home.

I didn’t have the painters paint this one Lindsay White because I had other plans for it.  And those plans involved yellow paint.

As a HomeRight Brand Ambassador, I have the opportunity to test out their products.  Before I got started on this little hallway, I went on their website in search for something that would make painting this area a lot easier.

I mean, I HATE that part of the wall.  A mini-roller won’t really fit in there, so I have to paint the whole thing with a brush.  Oh. My. Word.  THE HUMANITY!
