Personalized Fleece Baby Blankets
When a new baby is born, there are so many things to consider. Questions, both big and small, arise for parents and loved ones. Where will he/she sleep? What kind of a theme should the room be decorated in? What types of baby blankets work best?
One popular type of blankets are fleece baby blankets. Fleece is an ideal choice because it feels soft next to baby’s skin – like felt or velvet. Anything that feels good next to delicate baby skin is surely a good thing. It also does a wonderful job of keeping baby warm and comforted; cold nights aren’t a worry at all. Fleece blankets are durable as well, so they’ll last as baby gets older – toddlers love the feeling of fleece, too.
Baby blankets are also a good choice for those looking to give a gift at a baby shower. No mother wants to receive multiple stuffed bears for their infant – they’re all the same and they take up too much room. Blankets, however, are extremely useful, especially when a baby is young.
It’s important to have multiple blankets because they are bound to be washed often, whether it’s because the baby spit up or because something was spilled. An important point to remember is that lint may gather on fleece so that’s another reason they may need to be washed more often. Fleece should be dried at a low temperate to retain its softness. A high temperate is likely to damage the fabric. If it’s possible to air dry the blanket, that’s even better. To avoid stains, soiled areas should be treated as quickly as possible with dishwashing liquid.
Baby blankets can also be extremely unique; each one is a different color or has a different pattern or texture. Blankets can be embroidered, too, which would help make a baby gift more unique. Another idea to make a blanket gift stand out is to wrap it with a pretty ribbon or complimentary bow. You could even use the blanket to wrap up another gift- no wasted wrapping paper!
New babies need so many things, especially when he or she is the first baby in the family. Having good, solid baby blankets are just one part of the equation, but they can certainly help any new baby feel warm and safe. Now the only question is – blue or pink? Or green or yellow or brown or white?
