Whether you’re making your first photo blanket or your fifth, we’re here to give you 8 amazing photo blanket ideas (complete with styling tips!)

1. Collage Photo Blanket

Can’t pick just one picture? No problem. Whether you’re making a thoughtful gift for someone special or adding a personal touch to your own space, a collage photo blanket can be filled with all kinds of pictures, , like picnics in the park with family, unforgettable travel adventures, or even baby’s first week!

Top tip: Use a blanket wall hanger to display your photo blankets. This keeps them within easy reach and adds a fresh decorative element to your wall. 

Top tip #2: If you’ve got even more wonderful photos to display, choose our double-sided printing option.

2.  Love Photo Blanket 

Celebrate your love story with a romantic photo blanket featuring your best memories together. From the first date to the day you both said, “I do”, capture those special moments and turn them into a timeless keepsake. Perfect for anniversary or wedding gifts, and for curling up under together. Consider these unique love photo blanket ideas:

  • Scanned love notes, letters & postcards 
  • Favourite travel adventures 
  • ‘Will you marry me?’ captioned blanket – a creative way to propose! 

Top tip: For a stylish storage option, place your photo blanket in a woven basket; the basket can then be placed next to the sofa. 

Top tip #2: Go for our premium sherpa blanket – thicker, cozier, and luxuriously soft for extra comfort.

3. Pet Blanket

The best pet in the world (yours!) deserves comfort and style to the max. Design a pet photo blanket featuring their most adorable moments or include a single impactful image that draws the eye. Maybe it’s a snap of your cat snoozing in the laundry basket or your pup chasing his tail in the park. Whichever it is, it’ll look gorgeous on a soft personalized blanket, ready to be draped over your furry friend’s bed.  

Top tip: Go for beiges, light browns, tans, and creams for a rustic look that’ll add warmth to any space. 

4. Picnic Blanket

Design a cozy picnic blanket for your outdoor adventures (and avoid pins and needles from sitting in uncomfortable positions). Make your photo blanket totally ‘you’ with a collage of your favorite summer memories – think family BBQs and sunny beach trips. 

Top tip: When you’re not out and about, repurpose your picnic blanket as a vibrant throw in your backyard or on your patio. It’ll add a pop of color – and would look great with some personalised pillows!

5. Inspirational Quote Blanket

Celebrate your little one’s milestones with a cosy custom baby blanket. Add their photo, name, birthdate, and those precious pictures from the first week to create a special blanket that’ll be cherished for years to come.

Top tip: Go for soft pastel shades that complement the overall color scheme of the nursery to create a soothing environment for your baby.
