Organic blankets that are pretty and well-priced?
Hello, all. Just joined up. :3 I'm trying to be more natural in most aspects of my life, and that includes bedding. Finding blankets I like, however, is proving difficult. Can anyone help?
I have one decent set of organic cotton sheets, and all my other sheets are 100% cotton (though not organic), so I'm pretty good there (however, if you know of any pretty organic sheets you really love, I'm kind of a compulsive sheet buyer, so link away xD).
Onto the real issue: my current comforter (queen-sized) is getting really beaten up anyway, so I've been looking to replace it. I don't necessarily need another comforter, but I do need something warm and soft, so I was thinking of getting chenille. However, all I can find is natural and colorgrown natural (so plain offwhite and brown). These match nothing in my room whatsoever, and they're pretty boring. D: Non-chenille organic blankets aren't much better; if I can find colors at all, they're all really muted. I suppose I could dye my own natural-colored blanket, but I've never dyed anything before, and I really do not want to run the risk of messing something up that I've spent an arm and a leg on.
So: colorful, soft (really important - I can't sleep with anything rough), queen-sized organic blankets that aren't crazy expensive (I'd like to spend $100 max, maybe $150)? Am I dreaming? xD I'd like something light and/or hot pink or perhaps light blue (a combination of pink and blue would also be great). Failing that, I love toile and stripes and various patterns in black and white. Anything that matches the toile or Hello Kitty pillow in this picture or the sheets in this one is perfect. Material isn't an issue as long as it's natural; I'm not vegan, so animal products are fine (though I anticipate them being more expensive than something like cotton).
Edit: And it definitely doesn't have to be chenille. Just soft. xD
