Mexican blankets have been around for more than two thousand years.
They have come a long way from little fabrics with simple lines to beautiful, unique coverings. Much appreciated for their durability and vivid colors and designs, these are now a symbol of Mexican culture.
Mexican Blankets Make Wonderful Gifts- In its own way, every separate blanket tells a story. They usually come in multiple bright colors with blue, pink, turquoise, yellow, red and orange. Because of their unique beauty, they make wonderful decorative gifts. There is always one dominant color that appears several times throughout the blanket in larger stripes.
Mexican blankets also make great gifts for loved ones as housewarming gifts, holidays and birthdays and for just about any occasion. Also, serapes are popular gifts among college students who are going away from home to remind them of their family or keep them warm. Because they are very resistant, they can be easily tossed into the washing machine and cleaned easily.
