You can't hide the fact any longer - Christmas is upon us!! Only three weeks to go. Thanks to a wonderful friend in Brisbane, Queensland, Blanky4me.com will have a stall at the Christmas Shopping Extravaganza in Brisbane tomorrow, Friday December 4.

The Extravaganza starts at 7pm at Belmont State School Hall, and includes many talented mum-run businesses - a great opportunity for some Christmas shopping while supporting mums in business!

This is a great chance for anyone in the Brisbane area to get up close to our personalised blankys and cushions and other products, and feel for yourself what so many people are raving about.

Blanky4me.com orders taken on the night, along with full payment or deposit, will enjoy FREE shipping and guaranteed pre-Christmas delivery.

Due to customer requests....

One of the most important things to running a successful business is making sure customers are happy, that they get what they want, the way they want, and perhaps even more than what they expected.

So when customers began requesting for our Teddies to be personalised, we went to task on making it possible!

Introducing....our personalised Teddies!

Our Monogrammed Cushions featured at Giggle Smile Designs

It's always fun to design new things, whether it's a blanky or another item. Our cushions are a hit with customers - some get one to match their blanky, others order one for each of their children.

We were totally surprised and excited when we found out our Monogrammed Cushions were featured in Giggle Smile Designs Blog for their Giraffe Inspiration Wall!

Thank you to Giggle Smile Designs for featuring our Monogrammed Cushions!

Shanade Tallentire Charity Auction

"Her name is Shanade Tallentire and she is 7 years old. She has a brain tumor, called a diffuse intrinsic glioma. It's growing in the part of the brain that controls the central nervous system." Shanade has been given six months to live - that was almost two months ago.

We were hugely touched by this story when approached to donate a few weeks ago. Watching the television interviews is just heartbreaking, and sad.

Jess, from Exquisite Baby, is the main organiser of a massive campaign to raise money for Shanade and her family, so they may enjoy the next few precious months as much as possible.

Starting Monday 5 October, 51 charity auctions have begun, to raise money for Shanade and her family.

Blanky4me.com has donated a Kids Personalised Waffle Fleece Blanky to be auctioned. Bidding has already begun, so be sure to check out the auction here.

Charity Auctions and Donations for Shanade Tallentire Facebook.

Cash donation website.

We wish Shanade and her family a happy and joyful stay in Auckland, and hope the next few months are as comfortable and happy as possible. xo

Personalised Baby Blankys half price?!

When someone you know has a baby, you can't help but want to give them something special - something that says "What you cradle in your arms is the most special thing you may ever experience!" Something that symbolizes just how special their bundle of joy is.

That's where our personalised baby blankys make a great gift to give to that special bundle. Not only are they made from ultra soft waffle fleece (much softer than normal fleece), but the parents won't be able to help but gush as they unwrap and see their baby's name spread across the blanky in large letters - a gift that will be treasured for many years to come.

Our baby blankys are not just for the cot - due to their ultra soft touch and bright coloured ribbons they are also wonderful to use during baby's 'tummy time' on the floor.
They are perfect for the car and pram/stroller too, making sure baby is snug and warm during transit.

Why not make Blanky4me.com Baby Blankys your signature gift when someone has a baby?

For three days only we are having a Crazy Half Price Sale on all waffle fleece baby blankys.

Lay-By is welcome - so take advantage now!
If you are a Blanky4me.com GOLD MEMBER you also recieve your GOLD MEMBER discount as well!
