Some moments are too good to keep on your phone. A happy memory. A quiet morning. A photo that makes you smile every time.

A custom photo blanket will wrap you with such memories!  

And to make one, you don't even have to leave your house. Just a few clicks here and there, and tadda!

Our design tool keeps it simple. Pick your photos, add a few personal touches, and create something that feels like it belongs to you.

Ready to begin? You don’t even have to leave the couch.

Why Design a Custom Photo Blanket?

Blankets bring warmth. Photos bring emotion. Put them together, and you get something that feels like home.

Personalized photo blankets are more than gifts. They’re little reminders of the people and moments that matter most. They make birthdays sweeter, holidays more meaningful, and everyday snuggles extra special.

And the best part? You can design one from your phone, tablet, or couch—no design skills needed.

Step-by-Step: Design Your Custom Blanket Online

Step 1 – Choose Your Blanket Size and Material

Every blanket starts with a feel. Soft. Cozy. Warm. The kind that makes you want to stay wrapped up just a little longer.

You’ll choose from the many sizes, starting from : 25 x 20 inches to 60 x 80 inches.

Next comes the material. Want something lightweight and easy to care for? Fleece is smooth and perfect for everyday comfort. Prefer a warmer, plush feel? Sherpa adds an extra layer of softness with its fluffy lining. Looking for a classic touch? Woven cotton brings in a vintage look with a bit of texture.

No matter which you pick, your customized blanket will feel like it was made just for you.

Step 2 – Upload Your Photos or Use Our Gallery

Now comes the fun part—choosing your images.

You can upload photos straight from your phone or computer. Have favorites on social media? Connect your Facebook or Instagram and pull them in with just a click.

No photos? No problem. Browse our gallery filled with landscapes, textures, animals, and more. From beach sunsets to mountain trails, we’ve got images that fit every mood.

You don’t need to be a designer to create something beautiful. Drag, drop, and adjust your photos until everything looks just right. Many people use family portraits, pet photos, or vacation shots to design custom picture blankets that tell a story.

Step 3 – Pick a Layout That Fits Your Story

One photo is powerful. A few photos can tell a whole story.

Our design tool gives you flexible layout options. Want to feature a single moment? Choose a full-blanket photo layout that makes your image the star. Want to highlight multiple memories? Try a collage with space for three, four, or more pictures.

Each layout is made to fit the size you choose, so you won’t need to worry about alignment or spacing. Just drop your photos into the spots that feel right.

Every customizable blanket is unique, and the layout you choose sets the tone. Keep it simple. Get creative. Make it yours.

Step 4 – Add Text or Quotes for a Personal Touch

A photo says a lot. A few words can say even more.

Add names, dates, quotes, or inside jokes to give your blanket extra meaning. You can choose from different fonts, sizes, and colors to match your style. Want something playful? Go bold and bright. Looking for something calm and classic? Keep it soft and subtle.

You decide where the text goes. Add it across the bottom, tuck it in a corner, or center it right on the image.

That’s the beauty of a personalized blanket with pictures. You get to shape the message—one that speaks to you or someone you love.

Step 5 – Preview, Save, and Order

Once your design feels complete, take a moment to preview it.

You’ll see exactly how your blanket will look when it’s printed. Check for photo placement, text alignment, and colors. If something feels off, you can go back and make changes right away. The tool saves your edits as you go, so nothing is ever lost.

When everything looks perfect, just click save and head to checkout. Your order is processed quickly, and your custom blanket with photos will be on its way to your door before you know it.

Gift Ideas: Who Will Love a Personalized Blanket?

Some gifts are thoughtful. Others are useful. A custom blanket is both.

Think about the people in your life. Grandparents who light up at every photo of the grandkids. Parents who want to hold onto family moments a little longer. Friends who live far away but are always close at heart. Or a custom pet blanket for your furry!

These are the moments blankets personalized are made for.

You can design one for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, or just because. Wrap it with a memory, a message, or a favorite photo. Every time they reach for it, they’ll be reminded of you.

And if you're designing one for yourself? That counts too.

Not Just Photos: Other Ways to Customize Your Blanket

Photos are powerful, but they’re just the beginning.

You can turn words into warmth. Add a favorite quote, a handwritten letter, or a list of things you love. Use song lyrics, wedding vows, or verses that lift your spirit. Some people create family trees. Others choose a simple name in bold, beautiful letters.

You can even pick a background color that sets the mood—something calming, playful, or elegant.

With custom printed blankets, your design doesn’t need to follow any rules. It just needs to feel right to you.
