because this is a CUSTOM made blanket, it takes 4-5 weeks to make and ship out. I will update you on the shipping date asap.
The Large Lap Pads are great for toddlers and have more weight options. Let me know if you need to customize anything. I’m more than happy to work with your needs.
Backed with your choice of Dot Minky. Minky is so soft to the touch and warm. Or pick a cotton fabric. If you don’t see the cotton fabric that you would like, please message me and I can help.
The large and extra large blankets will automatically come with a 5-10 inch minky or cotton border around the cotton fabric.
Be sure to check out my upgrades: Glass Beads, Minky border around front fabric, and 4 inch pockets.
Glass beads are a wonderful upgrade. They are less dense then the plastic pellets and feel more like grains of sand then small pellets.
- The SMALL (30”x50”) blanket is great for any child up to 4’5 or could be used as an adult size lap pad that focus on the leg area to help with RLS.
-the MEDIUM (40”x65”) Blanket is my most popular because it can be moved from the bed to the couch easily. This blanket would cover from neck to toes on someone up to 5’8
-the LARGE (50”x80”) blanket is great for taller people or someone who wants a blanket closer to the size of a twin size bed. It works for people up to 7’1
Weighted blankets have become very popular due to sleepers reporting they help with anxiety, ADHD, restless legs syndrome, and many other health and sleep issues.
A common rule of thumb to figure out what weight you should get is 10% of the body weight plus 1 extra pound.
Our blankets use high quality materials and do not require the usage of a separate cover. The non-toxic hypo-allergenic beads are sewn directly into the blanket. Many mass produced weighted blankets require a weighted sub-unit that then has to be awkwardly tied to a cover. This also means twisting or bunching of the weighted portion inside the cover.
An integrated design also means less noise because the pellets are sewn into the softer more noise absorbent fabric instead of being retained in a course canvas like insert.
We also use smaller 5 inch squares for even weight distribution. If the pocket squares on a blanket are too large, all of the pellets will lump together in piles at the bottom of the squares. This leads to an uncomfortable, lumpy feel and defeats the purpose of the blanket. Smaller squares require more time to make but they mean "snug and secure" as opposed to "cumbersome and restrictive".
Each blanket is made to order and ships out within a week. I am able to customize your order to your specific needs.
Please note: weighted blankets should not be used for children under the age of 3. They should never be used to restrain anyone. Blankets are machine washable and dryer safe. It is recommend that you use a commercial size washer for blankets 16lbs or more.
