Perfect Mixture Of Princess Blanket for a Sweet 16

Perfect Mixture Of Princess Blanket greets you with a bold crown above the words, and the phrase sets the tone for the whole throw. The printed line reads like a compliment with a little backbone, the sort of praise a sixteen-year-old might actually want to hear. It suits anyone who wants a birthday gift that feels like a personal message rather than a generic card.

What the design shows

The design is a patchwork of colored tiles, each one holding its own short saying about turning sixteen. A central portrait shows a young woman with a bold red lip, locs pulled up high and large gold hoop earrings, with a golden crown tucked above her head. Her glittering top and the pink sparkle behind her give the middle of the throw a glamorous glow. Around her, the tiles say Level 16 Unlocked, 16 Years Of Being Awesome, Sunshine Mixed With A Little Hurricane and Always Believe In Yourself. Smaller tiles picture a girl in a denim jacket with a bubble of pink gum, a girl on a snowboard and a girl in a flowing white gown with a crown. A bordered edge of rust, black and cream geometric shapes frames everything. The lettering shifts from script to block capitals, so the eye keeps moving from one tile to the next. A right-hand panel counts the time she has been loved, in months, days, hours, minutes and seconds, ending with the words of being awesome. Each detail repeats the idea of sixteen as a year to be proud of.

Who it was made for

You will notice that this throw speaks to a teen girl, her family, and friends who want to celebrate her in style. The phrase Perfect Mixture Of Princess and Warrior is especially meaningful to a young woman who is learning to be both kind and strong. Parents may read the tiles to her, while older sisters or cousins may point out their favorite lines. Anyone who has ever felt the pressure of a milestone birthday will recognize the mix of confidence and tenderness on every tile.

As a gift and every day

Present it at a Sweet 16 party, a birthday breakfast or a quiet dinner with the people she loves most. Once the wrapping paper is gone, she can drape the throw across a bed during a movie night or curl up with it while studying. Years later it can become a memory of the year she turned sixteen, when she was bold, bright and beginning to see herself clearly.
