The temperatures are cooling down out in Tambo , the cool southerly wind is blowing up from the south and cutting through the township. But we’re sure it is even cooler in New Zealand – definitley time to rug up and put out your winter warmers.

Sheepskin is the best material to keep you warm. Natural sheepskin is highly breathable, as the fleece is made from hollow fibres that allow air to flow in and out. This means that body temperature is regulated when sheepskin comes in contact with human skin, not only keeping you warm in the cold but also cool and calm in the heat.

While at Tambo Teddies we make teddy bears and other sheepskin animals, we also make a couple of products for personal use. Our favourite sheepskin products include our hot water bottle covers and sheepskin rugs.

At  Teddies we keep a stock of the most beautiful soft  sheepskins rugs we call plates. Sheepskin rugs are the perfect decorator item for your home or caravan, and they are a winter warmer. Pop a rug on the floor beside your bed, on your leather lounge chairs or even on your camping chair and you’ll have an extra layer of warmth this winter.

Shaped in the likeness of a teddy bear, our hottie covers come in a soft chocolate or dusky pink skin. There is nothing like a hottie to warm a bed on a cold night and nothing cosier than a sheepskin cover. Sheepskin dissipates the heat making it not quite as intense, so you can hug the hottie close all night. AND – best bit ever – our sheepskin hotties are still warm in the morning.

We don’t forget our babies either and have a range of ‘sheepies’. Soft, cuddly, comforting sheepskins to pop in the cot, babies’ bed or pram. Sheepies are perfect for popping little down on the floor for some rolling time – nice warm in wintertime.  

Don’t be cold this winter – get yourself and your loved ones some sheepskin and stay as cosy as can be.
