Baby Blankets for Haiti

We are really pleased to announce 15 double sided receiving blankets created by Forever Blankets and Bears (www.foreverblanketsandbears.com) are on their way to Haiti for relief. They are being transported by the Compassionate Resource Centre here in Victoria, BC and will go out the first week of February. Please visit their website and help if you can. They are amazing people who do such good work.

The Compassionate Resource Warehouse is a lot of things to a lot of people. First, it's a gathering in place, where everything from medicines to school supplies, clothing to household goods, personal hygiene items to dry food stuffs is collected, packed into huge eight by eight by 40-foot containers and then shipped to peoples and nations in need around the world.
It is a place of community, where volunteers assemble to work side by side with a common goal: to give of themselves in order to better the lot of people in need often half a world away.

To find out how you can help, call (250) 381-GIVE, or Email: werge@telus.net. Website: www.crwarehouse.ca.

NEW Website!

We wanted to let everyone know about our new revised website, launched a couple of weeks ago. I think we are close to having most of the bugs ironed out, with the exception of one small "Monkey" embroidery design.

There are so many new products and features. The new Baby Zoobies and Original sized Zoobie Pets are amazing. We are offering four critters in the Baby Zoobie line, a Hippo, Elephant, Tortoise and the always popular Giraffe. http://www.foreverblanketsandbears.com/7-zoobies Currently there are Hippos and Elephants offered in the larger size but we have Ladybugs, Moose, Black Bears, Panda Bears, Giraffes, Koala Bears, Tortoise and Buffalo in stock. Just call us, if you don't see one up on the website under Special Items: http://www.foreverblanketsandbears.com/9-special-items The price includes embroidery of a child's name in one location usually on the blanket.

Zoobies are a soft plush friend to play with a super soft pillow and a blanket for snuggling when it's time to sleep. Loosen the Velcro straps on the Zoobies bottom and the toy flattens into a cushiony pillow. Unzip the bottom of Zoobie Pet to reveal a fleece blanket, which is detachable for easy washing.

We are offering many other great baby gift ideas including quilts, pillows and embroidered bibs which we will feature from time to time. Currently we are pursuing the personalized hooded bath towel for little ones, so be sure and check back with us from time to time.

One of the most exciting features of the new website is the ability to pull up your fabric selections side by side to get a feel for how the blanket will look. http://www.foreverblanketsandbears.com/12-blankets.html You can also add your design and font choice to the fabric selection window. Very cool! This feature will go a long way to helping you get the cutest and most original blanket ever.

The Payment section is updated to allow for both Canadian and US currencies and the option to pay via your Paypal account. Our secure server will continue accept VISA and MasterCard in both currencies and American Express in Canadian funds.

There are a ton of new cute baby photos in the gallery and some of the Page Headers feature our very own grandchildren. We are always looking for photos of cute babies and their blankets so if you have any pictures of your little ones with a Forever Blanket, we'd love to see them. Testimonials for the website are also most welcome! http://www.foreverblanketsandbears.com/content/21-testimonials
