Tips for Purchasing a Photo Blanket

A photo blanket is typically a big rectangular garment featuring photos, designs, or images, sometimes with bound edges, typically used as a decorative item or blanket. Historically, photo blankets were usually made from thick woolen fabric depicting historic scenes, people, objects, or symbols meant to depict historical events or tell a tale. Today, there are many choices for a photo blanket. Here are some tips to help you select the perfect blanket for a child's room.

How many photos do you need on the blanket? Many people choose the size blanket that they want, such as a baby blanket, but some prefer more than one blanket. Some prefer more than one photo per blanket. For instance, some like to use multiple photos of themselves or their friends on the blanket and the blankets are not required, but it makes the blanket look even more personal.

How many pictures should be on the blanket in your child's room? For most families, children have up to seven different photos in their bedrooms, so a minimum of four blankets would be ideal. If you want the blankets to be a visual display, then go with more than four. You could even go with a large photo blanket with more than ten pictures on it. Keep in mind that if the pictures are smaller, you may have to fold the blankets and then arrange them.

What color scheme should the blanket use? The colors that are used in photo blankets vary greatly, as well as the fabrics they are made of. If you want your child's room to have a certain color scheme or theme, then a photo blanket would be a great option. However, if you don't want to make any changes to the room, then you can just use an old, faded piece of fabric and use it. This is one of the best ways to save money.

Is the blanket machine washable? Some blankets can easily be machined washed, but other fabrics may take much longer to dry, especially those that are thick. If you don't plan to machine wash the blanket, then consider using a mild detergent on the photos rather than bleach, so they will not fade.
