70th birthday idea - help please

[Outnumberedwoman]

Its my mums 70th soon. Due to coronavirus we obviously won't be able to do anything. She mentioned months ago shewould like a weightes blanket. I was wondering does anyone know of anywhere I could get a personalized weighted blanket where they put photos on it? I was thinking a blanket with photos of all the family might be nice.

Yes, if you google there's quite a few to choose from.

Thanks. Have been looking but can only find companies in the USA. Don't really want to buy from overseas in case it doesnt arrive in time as post is flaky at the moment. Also the website mentioned about customs and import fees and it all sounded very complicated. Does anyone know of any UK based companies who do them? There must be some!

We have just done a lovely photo book from Photobox for my mum’s 70th. I was surprised how easy it was to do.

I have looked at weighted blankets before for my son but not got him one yet. He is a very warm child in bed at night so not sure it would work for him. Although photos on one would look nice I’d be concerned how well it would wash. We were given a cushion with a photo of our dog on it. It has only been washed twice but it has faded in a non uniform way.

So hard to think of 70th birthday ideas when you can’t take them out or away.
