Gifts for You

We don’t think you ever need an excuse for treating yourself, but we’re going to give you one anyways! You deserve it.

Washed Sateen bedding for the softest sleep… ever. 

While we love every piece of bedding we sell at Skylark+Owl, we have a special soft spot (literally) for our washed sateen bedding, which is our very softest textile. Made with all of the luxe silkiness you’ve come to expect from our sateen sheets, our washed sateen is put through an additional washing process that adds an entirely new level of dreaminess to every bed it touches.

Flannel sheets for cold toes.

If you’re a cold sleeper or you love a warm bedtime, our flannel sheets are for you! Velvety soft and breathable yet cozy, our Organic Flannel Collection is a lifelong pick that you’ll be excited to use every winter. Made in Peru, these sheets are crafted by textile experts and will be a new favourite. 

Alpaca Wool Throw for the softest home accessory.

Every movie night and late-night reading session is made 10 times better with our Alpaca Wool Throw, which is meticulously (and softly) crafted in Peru. Alpacas have long been domesticated for their strong, silky fibres, and Peruvian alpaca wool is widely known as one of the most luxurious fabrics you can buy (it’s both warmer and stronger than cashmere!). Pick this up for your favourite lounger, and brace yourself for the thank you’s!

Cable Knit Blanket for movie nights.

Is there anything better than a heavy, warm blanket for movie nights? We think not — which is why we love our Cable Knit Blanket so much! This pick is perfect for your favourite cozying-up friend, and it makes as wonderful of an accessory as it does for a movie night (or naptime) partner.
