Just a few clips make all your baby blankets multi-functional

August 4th, 2009

Our last blanketmybaby.com blog post introduced nursing covers. Well, let us introduce you to another hand-freeing product that can be used with all your blankets and could even help you create your own nursing cover.

One super-simple fix that’s used by trendy, thrifty parents are blanket clips and snaps. This relatively inexpensive cure-all solves the problem of only having two arms, two hands and one you! If you have trouble keeping blankets on your baby and off the ground, you may want to do a little research into some of the products below. Blanket clips, snaps, straps and bungies help keep blankets in the stroller or car seat or covering mom while she’s nursing. Clips can also help you create a quick sun shield to protect your baby from harmful rays. These products have so many possibilities–just be creative and you’ll have a homemade nursing cover, stroller blanket or car seat cover. If you have a unique use for blanket clips, let Blanket My Baby and our readers in on your genius by posting a comment.

Blanket clips are available in a variety of colors, patterns and sizes that will coordinate with the accessories and blankets you already own. They are sure to add style and functionality without putting too large a dent in your wallet. They make great baby shower gifts.
