We played around with designs for quite a while before we virtually tried it on the blanket and agreed that the deep red was a great pop of color that wasn’t too distracting to the design. I chose a vintage red border to match our living room, but there are tons more variations and prints you can use right on. You can pick from their templates or you can make your own and customize all the details however you would like – or you can do a combination of both, which is what I like to do. Once you choose your weight and size, you can start designing. I personally think that bigger is better when it comes to blankets, but if you’re looking for a baby blanket or something really portable, you will love the smaller sizes. Then you can choose one of 4 different sizes that fits your space. To start your blanket, you choose what blanket weight you would like – from fleece to plush Sherpa, or you can choose a woven design. The front is covered in sharp detail with pictures in whatever design you prefer and then it is backed with cream colored Sherpa fleece on the other. By contrast, the Custom Sherpa Photo Blanket is a heavy weight Sherpa that is super soft and ready for keeping you warm on long winter nights. I should mention that I’ve tried fleece blankets in the past and although they were fun novelty items, they weren’t exactly high quality. I ordered myself the Custom Sherpa Photo Blanket that arrived just days ago and it’s now one of my most favorite things I own. But, this year I got a chance to enjoy one of their amazing photo gifts for myself. A few years ago, I posted all about how I love for sending picture presents to loved ones all over the world, and it’s still my go-to for long distance presents to loved ones. So, I’m always looking for fun, personalized photo gifts and that’s when I turn to. So, it’s expected that I would gift some of those pictures as surprises for loved ones, but there’s only so many framed prints you can possibly make.

I’m the photographer in my group and I have file after file full of pictures I’ve taken throughout the year of all of our many events. Every year when the holidays roll around, it’s basically a guarantee that at least some of the presents I give will be picture gifts.
