Rustic Wood Love Blanket for Your Girlfriend

Rustic Wood Love Blanket shows a love letter to a girlfriend, printed across planks of weathered wood in blue, brown and gray. Its words say that the day you met, she was the missing piece you had been looking for, and they close with a simple I love you. It feels like a note you would write by hand, carried in a form she can wrap around herself.

The design piece by piece

The design is built like a stack of old barn boards, with a grain that runs left to right and small cracks between each plank. On the left, a tall panel reads YOU ARE MY love, then YOU ARE MY LIFE and YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE I want BY MY SIDE, with a hand-drawn heart sitting between the words. The large letters are set in a casual, chalky hand that looks carved into the wood. On the right, the main letter runs in stacked rows, starting with TO MY GIRLFRIEND in tall capitals, followed by lines about the day you met and the missing piece she completed. Lower rows speak of her arms, eyes, smile and voice, and the final line, AND ONLY BE YOURS FOREVER, sits above I LOVE YOU. Each plank is a different shade, from pale aqua to deep navy, so the whole stack reads like a page of boards nailed together. Together the planks feel like a porch wall you can read from across the room.

Everyday moments

A girlfriend will notice the wood texture first, then slowly work down the lines as she settles in. Reading the letter in order makes the sentiment build, from the day you met to the promise of forever. You can pull this blanket over your knees while you watch a movie, and it gives you something to talk about without a word being said. Many couples keep a throw like this on the back of a sofa, where it turns into a quiet reminder of what was said.

When you need a gift

This blanket suits an anniversary, a Valentine's Day morning or a birthday when you want the words to do the talking. It also works for a just-because moment after a hard week, when a note in fabric says more than a card. Pick the Fleece Throw Blanket or Sherpa Throw Blanket for a lighter drape, or the larger Fleece Blanket or Sherpa Blanket if she likes to curl up under something heavy. Each style carries the same printed letter, so the choice comes down to how she likes to be wrapped.
