3 Smart Ways to Shop Home Textile Items

We all love online shopping, because it is easy and fast to buy things with one click.  According to the research of Pew Research Center, 79% of American shoppers have purchased online.

For buying home textile goods, there is uncertainty after we make the purchase, because we're not sure this item with beautifully photo-shopped images is in good quality / good hand feel or not. Not until we receive the parcel, we cannot reassure ourselves that it is a good and smart pick.

Here are 3 tips that you can use when you buy blanket or home textile online.

1. Check the weight of blanket

Most of the online stores will show product weight info in the product description. In most cases, you may use below weight scale to evaluate and expect the thickness of the throw.

If you see a 50"x 60" throw weight below the standard, either the fabric is thin or the fabric material is light-weighted (like Cashmere).

2. Select by seasons

Like apparel, fashion home textile items follow seasonal patterns in fabric variations and styles.

  • In spring/summer time, you can choose the knitted or woven summer blankets making you cozy & warm at early morning or at night. Some knits are light weighted, suitable for being carried with outdoors or in air-conditioned space; some knits are beautifully woven to be a lovely sofa or bed décor piece. Spring/Summer Option: Magic Diamond Woven Throw / Outdoor Option: Reversible Pocket PonThrowTribal Infatuation Woven Throw
  • In fall/winter time, when the weather is getting colder, bulky and fluffy items become popular go-to blankets, like Sherpa blanket and long pile fur items. Some winter blankets feather double layers to keep heat trapped inside the blanket. Also, double-layer blankets give different feels. So, you can feel minky at one side, sherpa on the other side, when snuggling into the fluffiness at cold night. Fall/Winter Option: Champagne Rain Sherpa Throw
  • If you’re searching for all-season blanket, plush throw will be a perfect choice. Plush throw is good value and easy-care. Also, it is soft, cuddly and suitable for every taste and décor. All-season Option: Snowflake Hug Plush Throw

3. See people’s online review

Consumers’ review can always be a good parameter to see people’s purchasing experience. When making the purchasing decision, 80% of Americans will see the posted reviews when buying from the new supplier, according to Pew Research Center. Thanks to their buying experiences, we can see pros & cons at the same time and to consider if we are okay with their comments in terms of the given pricing.

We hope that by following the 3 tips, you can be saved from unexpected surprises and be a smart shopper while browsing through home textile items. Good luck!
