Baby Blankets Can Make Wonderful Baby Shower Gifts
It is always hard to think of a great gift for a baby shower but a baby blanket could just be the answer to earning yourself the “most popular gift” award at the party. With a range of original and clever designs available today you cannot go wrong here with these unique baby shower gifts.
However, what could be more ordinary than a baby blanket I hear you ask? Used for thousands of years to swath a baby and provide needed warmth, it is difficult to imagine somebody coming up with a new idea for a blanket. Well think again. Baby blankets have discovered whole new heights of fun, creativity and usefulness.
“Pigs in a Blanket” is just one example which combines a clever design with a practical gift. This two-piece gift set will cause lots of “oohs” and “awws” when the proud mother opens the decorative gift box which comprises a delightful vintage container topped with an organza bow.
Inside the box she will discover a plush blanket that can be printed with a lovely phrase or simply personalized. The blanket is wrapped around an even lovelier teddy bear-style pig that will quickly become the baby’s favorite. Manufactured in a stain-resistant polyester which will last for years, it could very well even be passed down to the next generation of the family.
This gift also includes a children’s story book rhyme which is designed in a similar style to complement the two other items. “This Little Piggy” which is printed on the back was never so much fun and the five little piggies which are dancing on the front agree.
Another gift which is just as much fun is the JoJo Giraffe toy which also comes with its own very special blanket inside its own keepsake box. Standing 20 inches tall it will sit proudly in the corner until the baby can no longer resist playing with it… which at a guess will take about four seconds. With his arms and legs wrapped around a colorful keepsake box created in similar style, JoJo is unquestionably a perfect toy.
The blanket that comes with the gift adds greatly to the delight that both baby and mom will get from this exquisitie item. Easily personalized with the addition of the baby’s name, the sunshine yellow fleece of the blanket is warm and soothing. Also, at 30 inches by 40 inches, it is ample size for use as a baby blanket or decorative bed cover.
Even baby blankets that are standalone items can also make perfect gifts. One great example of this is The Maddie’s Meadow. Brightly and colorfully decorated with butterflies and flowers on a background of pink, it’s very inviting. The gift box itself carries a matching theme with bright green grass and fluffy pink clouds which serve to remind mom of the joys of spring. Personalization is also easily achieved because of the wide satin border surrounding the soft fleece.
