                                     General Information

 

 

Blankets, lap pads, and vests, have removable ‘ribbons’ of weight which allows for easy cold water washing on a delicate cycle and tumble drying on low heat.  Ribbons may be hand washed in cold water & laid flat to dry when necessary.  The ‘ribbons’ are then dropped back into ‘channels’ sewn into the blankets and lap pads & into the band on the girls' hats.  The ‘channels’ close with Velcro on the blankets & lap pads.  Blankets are usually made of fleece and lap pads of fleece, flannel or cotton.  If you have a preference for your fabric just let me know.

 

Blankets 

The standard size of the 3 to 10lb fleece blankets is approximately 60 inches by 40 inches, sometimes a little wider depending on the cut of cloth.  The standard size of the 3 to 10lb cotton blankets is approximately 50 inches by 40 inches, sometimes a little wider depending on the cut of cloth.

 

Lap Pads 

Lap pads are approximately 12" x 12" (small) or 24" x 24" (Large) for $35 plus shipping and weigh up to 3 pounds.  Larger and/or varying sizes are available at a small cost.  Lap pads may also be personalized for a small fee.

 

Vests, Hats, & Critters

Up to 3 pounds the vests are $35 plus shipping; 2 pound & under hats are $20 plus shipping; 2 pound & under weighted animals are $25 plus shipping.  Larger and or heavier items are available per request at a small additional cost.

 

Shipping

 

Shipping costs average $10 to $17; the lighter the blanket/lap pad and the closer to Georgia the less the shipping cost (I add only the actual shipping cost and ship through the USPS).  I will be glad to calculate your shipping but if you'd like to estimate it - your item(s) will be shipping from zip code 31029 -- Take the total weight of your item(s), add 2lbs for shipping materials, $1.65 for insurance for orders under $100 and .75 for delivery tracking -------------------------------
