Cozy fall blankets from Unison and Ratzer

Why It's Good:

Your life is crazy, but your bedroom is a sanctuary, and to keep your motor going during the day, you need a good night's sleep. Recharge your batteries—as well as your décor—with timelessly modern blankets from Unison and Ratzer.

Why It's Green:

Unison blankets are made from SKAL-certified 100% organic cotton and printed with non-hazardous dyes; they bear the Oeko-Tex certification of skin-friendly textiles, meaning they pose zero health risks. Ratzer's wool comes from sheep raised on a biodynamic farm in Australia, where the Demeter-certified yarn is supervised under rigorous eco-standards from start to finish—the soaps and spinning oils are biodegradable, the wool is not super-washed or doused with moth repellent, and the dyes are heavy-metal free.

A Better (and Cozier) Night's Sleep

Lately, night after night, I've been tossing and turning, breaking into sweats—and minor skin irritations. So I finally retired my favorite old sheets—lovely cream and printed with delicate roses, but cotton-poly blend (ick)—and switched to organic cotton ones. And I can honestly tell the difference—I sleep more soundly. Last night, the first feather of winter cold tickled my toes, and I reached for...my fleece blanket, but I realize that's gotta go too (I'll use it as a rug pad). In my home, as well as my wardrobe, I'm slowly making a permanent switch to natural fibers. This Unison organic cotton twill blanket will match perfectly with my new sheets (it's pink!) and, for colder nights, I'll add the Ratzer wool in kicky lime to ensure sheep-free dreams and a wonderful morning.
