Here are some tips for properly storing a lemon yellow throw blanket:
Fold neatly and evenly
Smooth out any wrinkles before folding to prevent creases.
Consider folding in half
For thicker blankets, folding in half forms a flat, compact square.
Roll tightly
Rolling is preferred by some as it takes up less space than folding and reduces wrinkles.
Use blanket sleeve or cotton cover
Slide the rolled/folded blanket into a breathable fabric protector to avoid dust and keep its shape.
Cedar chest or ottoman
Moth-proof wooden storage contains scent that naturally repels insects and prevents fading.
Pillowcase or garment bag
Zippered bags provide a simple, lightweight option for short term storage between uses.
Avoid direct sunlight
The UV rays can cause color fading over time, so store away from windows.
Cool, dry location
A linen closet, shelf or under the bed in the spare room maintains an evenly temperature-controlled environment.
Label with contents
Write “lemon blanket” on a tag attached to the protector or bag for easy identification.
Proper folding and storage in a dark, dry spot keeps the bright hue of the lemon throw from fading prematurely.
