Favorite Purchase:

My favorite purchase is, hands down, my Barefoot Dreams blanket.

Its a bit of a splurge for a blanket, but Ive had mine for over five years.

It washes well, and honestly, it just gets cozier and cozier.

Theres no better feeling than coming home after a long day and curling up in it.
