He more than others needs frequent washing and cleaning, because even the slightest speck is visible on it.
Due to the color of such a blanket is not suitable for any room: it is completely inappropriate in the interior of the kitchen, living room and nursery: places where there is more risk of pollution. The ideal room for such a product is a bedroom.

- non-woven, created from yarn or by felting;
- fur, made from animal fur or synthetic imitation.
Bed covers can be single or double sided. In the first case, these are models that imply certain rules of operation; in the second, blankets can be used either side to the body or the surface of the furniture. In addition, there are two-in-one products that more closely resemble two rug buttons connected to each other, differing in thickness and weight.

The range of models of white blankets is extensive. Products can be completely monophonic, interspersed with gray hair, a small addition of contrast in the form of a monochrome component. However, in any case, the white color remains dominant.

Looking at how it looks beautiful in different design styles, I want to decorate your home with a similar product. However, in reality, not every blanket will look beautiful in conditions that are far from the ideal arrangements of designers, you need to take into account other items.And yet, some combination information can be taken into account.
- White plaid is relevant in the bedroom of monochrome tones. It saves the room from the feeling of depression associated with a lack of light. A simple version of white is not suitable here: it is better to choose a model with reference to black contrast: a black and white plaid with a simple lace print.
- Often two shades are few, but do not want to change the general idea. Then you should add a small touch: greens of fresh flowers. Everything else remains unchanged, although you can experiment with the picture by selecting the version with animal print under the color of zebra. To make the contrast of two shades softer, you can combine them with a gray tone pillows.
If a more thorough approach to the design of the room, you can create a cozy atmosphere of classic shades.
- Beige or cream is great for a neutral combination.. You can add a "lively" shade in the pattern of carpet, curtains, small curbstones. Do not forget about fresh flowers: they talk about the living room.
- White plaid in harmony with brown gammay. It can decorate a beige sofa, goes well with a long-pile sand-colored carpet and saves the day if there are many dark shades distracting attention from them.
- Those who adore bright colors and a sea of light, you can accent the bed with a white plaid with a large knit texture in the form of large braids and voluminous weaves. This accessory becomes the decoration of the bed, especially if you support it with pillows with a similar texture.
To make the design not boring, it is better to make the shape of the pillows different, and for light colors it is better to add a bright accent in the form of a burgundy carpet and a floor lamp of a desk lamp.
- Lovers of multi-pattern experiments with things you will like a white bilateral blanket with knitted and textile sides. This is a tricky design technique: depending on the desire, you can change the style and mood of the room.
