Ready to take your sofa to the next level? Well then, jump on board the back-of-couch blanket trend! I did and I absolutely love the interest it brings to an otherwise boring view.
ADDS INTEREST
If your layout allows for a floating sofa, then you’re in luck because the back of your couch is prime real estate. Change up the view and add some interest by layering a blanket, or even a rug, to this untapped area of your living room.
Think pattern and texture when choosing the perfect blanket for your sofa. You’ll want something that coordinates well with your room as a whole, but also gives you that feeling of “unexpected.”
The best part is you don’t need to buy a new sofa to change up your living room, simply swap out your blanket for a whole new look. You can even think beyond a blanket and try a rug!
HELPS PROTECT
Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but it also brings a level of protection as well. I’m looking at you, “white couch lovers.” A back-of-couch blanket is your extra line of defense against grimy, sticky fingers ruining your beautiful white upholstery.
Don’t even get me started on the pets. Pet hair everywhere? Cat scratching your sofa? All of these problems can be fixed with the back-of-couch blanket!
