Fall is officially here. It’s that time, not to hot – not to cold pleasant weather that gets us wanting to wear our shawls and shawlettes.
It’s time to take them out so you can see them.
Take them out of their safe place and use them. Personally, I like to have them out so that I can see them. If I don’t see them, I forget to wear them.
Here are some ideas – Displaying your shawls.
- Throw them over the back of any chair that you may have in your bedroom.
- Throw one over the bed much like you would place a decorative throw over your bed. Just put it aside at bedtime.
- Place over sofa back, assuming its a safe place from little ones or pets.
- If you have a canopy bed, get creative. There’s lots of ways to display them over your bed.
- If you have low valance window, you can spread one over the top balance. That’s assuming its low enough that you can reach for it. Make sure you keep the shawl out of direct sunlight.
- Display them over furniture such as consoles, dining table, pianos, etc.
Wear them.
Ultimately, it’s about wearing those wonderful shawls we invested so much time into making. It’s time to enjoy them.
Here are some ideas – How to wear a shawl.
Since I wear my shawls much like scarves, I find many uses for them during the cool or cold weather. I like to wrap them around my neck under my coat. When I remove my coat, I have a lovely shawl/shawlette to flatter my outfit.
Honestly, I was going to make a video for this post, but after finding these other wonderful videos, I decided to just share them. No sense reinventing the wheel here.
