Do you know someone’s who expecting a baby? Are you contemplating on what kind of a gift to purchase them? A baby blanket is a great gift idea for any newborn. They keep babies warm and happy and can become a keepsake they can keep forever. You can also choose other baby items such as diaper bags, baby bedding or baby gift sets.

For a gift, what types of baby blankets can you get? If you’re not crafty and don’t want to knit or crochet a baby blanket you can always purchase a baby blanket. Buying a beautiful baby blanket can be just as special. No one says you have to spend a lot of money for something to be from the heart. The same goes for crafts. Not everyone is artistic and crafty! If you don’t have to knack for crafts, use your talent of choosing a beautiful blanket. 

When you choose a baby blanket with My Blankee, make sure it is perfect for the baby you are making or buying it for. We have a great variety of colors, patterns and prints available. Make sure the colors fit the baby and his/her room. You can even get a blanket and wrap it in a stuffed animal or get a blanket set that comes with one. Most of all make sure the blanket it soft, warm, and perfect for the newborn baby!

Money Saving Tips for Baby's Nursery

September 15, 2011 2:20:58 PM PDT

Everyone knows that setting up baby's nursery can be expensive. Before you start buying furniture, bedding and accessories, make a plan for baby's nursery and try to stick to it. You’ve got to consider how long you'll really use the nursery furniture or accessories. If you think they'll be in storage in couple of years, it may help you cut pricier items from your must-haves list. These budget nursery tips will help you find ways to save money on baby's nursery without sacrificing comfort and style.


Saving Money on Cribs & Mattresses

A stunning crib can be a focal point for a nursery, so it's tempting to buy the first expensive one you fall in love with, right? The crib can be a great place to start saving money, too. There are plenty of budget-friendly options for new, attractive cribs. As long as the crib is sturdy and safe, your baby will sleep just fine in it. An inexpensive new crib is a better choice than a used crib, since re-assembling old cribs can lead to safety issues, and crib hardware can wear out over time. Crib mattresses are also a great place to save money; since spending more doesn't buy you more feature.


Saving Money on Other Nursery Furniture

The full set of gorgeous nursery furniture is tempting, but honestly it’s not necessary to purchase the complete sets. Those tiny baby clothes will store just as easily in a less expensive dresser, or in baskets or bins in the closet or under the crib. You can also add a changing pad on top of a dresser. This option is much cheaper than purchasing a separate changing table. If you want to skip the changing table entirely you can stock a cute basket with diapering supplies and a waterproof changing pad. A rocking chair or glider is nice to have if there's room in the budget, and may be one piece to splurge on so you can get a sturdy one.


Saving Money on Nursery Bedding

If you’re looking to save on Baby Bedding, you can check out our collection of Baby Bedding at our online store. We offer competitive quality and prices with our Baby Bedding.  Make sure to check out our entire collection of My Blankee Baby Blankets as well!


Saving Money on Nursery Walls

You may be full of ideas when it comes to your new baby nursery, so starting out with a blank slate is always a good option. When it comes to wall coverings, though, you can make a big visual impact without spending much money. A fresh coat of paint isn't expensive, and can give the nursery the serene or cheerful look you want. Also, if you'd like to work on a theme, wallpaper borders can be an inexpensive place to start. Even murals are within reach of most budgets if you can transfer sketches to the wall and fill them in. Some of the most amazing murals I've seen in kids' rooms were done on the cheap by parents.


Saving Money on Nursery Themes

Here at My Blankee we offer a variety of prints and patterns to match your baby’s nursery theme. Once you decide on a theme, look for just a few special accessories for the nursery, such as lamps, rugs or wall art, that convey the theme. If you can't find something inexpensive, try making your own artwork, or purchase some stencils and transform an inexpensive lamp into a themed one. Be creative, and remember that your home will seem to overflow with baby and toddler gear in no time. You may decide to enjoy a minimalist nursery while you can!

Mommy's Free Time Review of My Blankee

September 6, 2011 1:04:42 PM PDT

We love Mommy's Free Time's Review of My Blankee. You'll see that her kids are obssessed with blankets, so this review was perfect! Emmi loved our selection of stylish designs and colors. You can read her My Blankee Review over at her blog! Thanks Emmi! We're glad her family loved our blankets!


My kids are obsessed with their blankies. They take them wherever they go. They even try to take them to school but I have to persuade them to leave them in the car. And then if I pick them up and I don't have the blankies you should hear the protesting. But here's the thing. Blankies get dirty. My little girl's blankie was made by a friend so it can't be replaced. My son's blankie I bought on clearance at Walmart when he was born and I didn't think he would become so attached to it, so I didn't buy two! So when Blankie has to be washed or is misplaced for a little while I need something to fill in! And the kids are getting older. I don't want to take away their blankies but I do want them to graduate to something newer and more stylish. Yes I know. Only a mom would say that...hehehe.

Kind Words from City Mommy about My Blankee

June 10, 2011 2:22:05 PM PDT

Do you remember your first 'Blankee'? So soft and comforting, it was always there to provide a sense of security. For even if I was sleeping at my grandparents house, I took my blankee with me because it smelled just like home!

Giving those same feelings of comfort and security to my kids are of high importance when selecting their blankets. I've often talked about my children's ailments (son's eczema and daughter's asthma) on the boards so you know that any product that can aid in their comfort and well being is one that makes me a happy Mama! So when I was given the opportunity to review a blanket from My Blankee Inc., http://www.myblankeeinc.com/ I was very interested.

Developed by a Father whose son was diagnosed with eczema,http://www.myblankeeinc.com/about-us My Blankee uses hypoallergenic fabrics to accomodate those with such skin conditions or other conditions (such as my daughter's asthma). In addition, all fabrics have been tested for lead and pass all all government regulations. And best of all, they're all machine washable!
