MyUbby - Win a One-of-a-Kind Baby Blanket

Written by Janice

Six years ago, when Jackson was a baby, the world of blankets seemed pretty dull for us. But this time around with Olivia, we are living in a world of sumptuous baby blankets! This new generation of baby blankets is fantastic. With super soft fabrics like minky, brilliant mom-entrepreneurs keep coming up with fabulous new blankets and blanket designs.

And now, mom-designed “MyUbby,” brings you not only an incredible, cozy blanket - but you get to create and personalize this blanket yourself!

At the MyUbby website, you build your blanket with their easy-to-use wizard. You choose the fabrics, (they have over 50 fabric options,) the trim, the stitching, etc and you can even add a monogram or inscription. Your baby’s blanket will truly be “one-of-a-kind” and made exactly how you want it!

I am so in love with Sophia’s blanket (Olivia “borrowed” it for me to photograph it) that I simply must order one for Olivia too! It is so warm and luxurious. And I love that I can have her named monogrammed on it too. What a keepsake!

“my” (adj) = Belonging to an individual

“ubby” (made up noun) = A blanket-friend that will always be by your side. Soft and warm, ubbies can also be used as a tissue, super hero cape, or sun shade. An ubby will never run away but sometimes hides. An ubby never gets mad or complains. A true companion for life.

MyUbbies are 35″x45″ in size and are available in either one sided or two sided with a wonderful variety of fabric choices - I especially love the minky swirl! And the wizard is so simple and fast to use, you will have your blanket “built” in a couple minutes!

The price for a MyUbby is very reasonable, ranging from $22-$69, depending on fabric choices, monogramming, etc. If you are looking for a baby blanket or a baby gift, definitely check out MyUbby. This is true blanket love.

If you want to win a MyUbby, leave a comment at this post to enter. MyUbby will give our winner a $75 gift certifiacte that will cover the most expensive blanket options and shipping.

Right now MyUbby only ships within the US. So this contest is only for US shipping addresses.

We will announce the winner on February 26th. Please check back to see if you won and remember to check your email as well.

These are so neat. I have never heard of them before, but I just went to their site and “built” my son a blanket. They have so many choices, it is hard to decide!
