Bold and Classic Throws that Will Give You Another Excuse to Cuddle Up

Not that we need another reason to cuddle up, but Karrie Dean’s Happy Habitat throws are a nice excuse. Dean designs bold and classic patterns that provide as much stylish impact to a room as creature comfort to its inhabitants.

“These designs really come from the gut,” she says. “I feel colors and I want to play with them.”

There’s no doubt that these throws look like fun. There are “mini” sizes that work great for kids, or the regular size which works perfect for an adult or two, depending on how close you want to be.

“I’m not a designer by training,” says Dean. “But I’ll see a space and wonder what would pop there. Mostly I’m just playing with color. The end result is never what you think it’s going to be.”

Happy Habitat throws, which are available in cotton, wool, and a pretty dreamy alpaca, are available online and at The Little House in Fairway, Coveted Home on the Plaza and local Made in KC locations.
