Baby Name Pillows Make Perfect Gifts

By Marci Glover


Parents often think long and hard before selecting names for a child. Giving baby name pillows as gifts is therefore a special way to celebrate this. Such a gift will often be kept for years as a memento of a very special event. These products are now available from many online sources. Personalizing items is becoming a trend as new technology makes it easier and less expensive.

A pillow like this can create a great accent piece in any nursery. For example, it adds color and interest to a room when placed on a rocker. Bright and bold, elegant or vintage, there are styles available to suit every type of decor. There are many different colors to be selected too, from soft pink and buttercup yellow to ocean blue. Various sizes and shapes are also available from small rectangles to large squares.

Many different fabrics are used too, such as cottons, linens, satins and even knits. The type of fabric chosen will depend on factors such as what occasion the gift will commemorate and whether it is intended only as a keepsake or will be used by a child. Names are embroidered or appliqued onto the fabric and another popular trend is to use a monogram instead of a full name.

Shopping for these items has become a simple matter of going online, comparing options, making a selection and placing an order. Once you have selected an item, you will need to choose the size and color. You will also need to give the names and other details, such as the date of birth you may want on the pillow.

Giving a gift like this to new parents to celebrate the arrival of their child offers a creative alternative. You can include the names and date of birth. All sorts of other details can be added too like the place of birth, weight of the child and even the names of the parents.

There are some beautiful gifts of this nature available for christenings or other occasions like this. Once again you are able to select style, size and color as well as names and the date of the event. For example, a pillow made of white pique with a soft pink trim and pink embroidery is a perfect keepsake.

When making your choice, you will need to decide whether the gift is simply to be used for decor and as a keepsake or whether you want it to be used by the baby. A perfect birthday gift suitable for use by a baby is a pillow decorated with felt and fleece details. A felt toy like a ladybug or a penguin fits inside a pouch made of fleece. The pillow and toy are stuffed with hypoallergenic polyfill and both items are hand washable.

When choosing a pillow, one has to bear in mind factors like quality, durability and value for money as well as appearance. Make sure you choose a reputable supplier to ensure you have no problems with your product or its delivery. Reading online reviews can be helpful when making a decision. The experience of shopping online for such a personalized product is not difficult today and the recipient never fails to express great delight when seeing your thoughtful gift.
