We all have them, we all use them, and we all love our cozy throw blankets! A stylish throw can add some extra oomph to any space - you can drape it over the arm of a couch, lay it across the end of your bed, or toss it onto the back of a chair. Here are six fun ways you can arrange your throws to create a look that's uniquely yours.

What we like to refer to as "Drape And Scrunch" is one of the simplest methods to create a beautiful throw. The name perfectly captures what you do!

You may simply scrunch or bundle a throw to make it look rumpled and drape it over a chair, sofa, or bed. Next, fluff and smooth the throw's fringe and bottom. It's that simple! Your throw looks great in any space.
