Yellow Blanket

Believe it or not, one of the most common questions I get asked is where I got the yellow blanket at the foot of our bed in our master bedroom.  Although this may seem like an odd question to be so popular, I'm not surprised because I had the hardest time finding a blanket for the foot of the bed that was the right shade of yellow.  People are always surprised with my answer.  I got it at Goodwill.  Unfortunately, that doesn't really help people in their search, so I decided to do a roundup of some similar yellow blankets.  

Here's mine:  (for more pics of our master bedroom click the picture in the sidebar)


and some similar lovelies that are hopefully what some of you are looking for!

love the color and texture of this one of a kind of find on Etsy



cute throw from West Elm



or (I think this would be the route I would go) you could get a simple, plain white blanket like this one from Macy's....




add a little yellow RIT dye and you have a perfect yellow blanket in just the color you want!



The RIT dye website has a link where you can find recipes for just the right shade of yellow, pretty cool.

I always check out the blankets and others linens while thrifting. You never know what you may come across. Your yellow blanket is so bright!

Love this idea! Although knowing me I would definitely dye it the wrong color.

I just love your bedroom! Quick q-how do you keep the curtain panel over your bed clean/dust free? Is it difficult to take it down to clean? Thanks!

Love your master bedroom!! The yellow just pops! I too, am a GW troller! You never know what you will find there. It's a little thrilling to me. Should I be embarrassed by that admission? :-)

I haven't come across the color/paint brand of your bedroom wall?

I am simply amazed and kerflummoxed at the fact that NOBODY sells yellow blankets!!! Unless, of course, you want it for a crib. Why not yellow??? It's the strangest thing I've ever seen.
