July 9th, 2009

If you’ve been holding your breath for BlanketMyBaby to offer personalized baby blankets, then you are in luck!  First of all, exhale.  Then, check out the many new products we are offering on our site.

Ok, while I admit that I was hesitant to add these products (more below), we realize that personalized blankets are an important part of any baby blanket store.  If you are looking to buy a gift for a friend or family member, there is hardly a better way out there to show your caring thoughtfulness than with an embroidered blanket.  It shows that you go the extra distance to put a touch of kindness in your gift.  Plus, it’s something the child can treasure as their own!

Look closely on our product page.  Notice anything different?  Ok, you may have caught us.  This category page is a bit different than the rest.  If you’ve noticed, there are no helpful filters or pop images to help you get a closer look.  I’ve added these products as affiliate only for now.  Yeah, yeah, not my favorite, but we’re more concerned about you having a fuller selection than the checkout being on BMB.  So go ahead, knock yourself out and discover some of the great personalized blankets we have to choose from!

An Everyday Parent’s Advice for Buying the Perfect Baby Blanket – Unique, personalized blankets with the baby’s name embroidered make great gifts

If was going to buy a unique baby blanket for a friend, I would buy a personalized blanket embroidered with the baby’s name.

I received a personalized blanket as a gift from a client of mine for the birth of my third child.  It is made of a very soft, pink, fleece material and has an attached bunny.  My baby loves to play with it and hold on to it.  The picture below was taken of her with the bunny blanket and is featured on my website, http://hezlepphotography.smugmug.com/, under “Portfolio” and then the “My Kids” tab.

When buying a personalized blanket, it is still important to purchase a blanket that the baby will love to cuddle with and that the parent will actually use.  Blankets can be unique and practical at the same time.  See the following post featured on blanketmybaby.com for my general blanket-buying advice:

You may have noticed that she is laying in a basket with another homemade, crocheted baby blanket.  I do not usually give crocheted blankets as gifts because I do not know how to make them.  If you would like to read why crocheted blankets are my all-time favorite baby blanket, visit the following post:
