Nicki’s Bamboo Blanket Review + a Best Bottoms Giveaway

March 13, 2016 by Anne Marie 87 Comments

Spread it around!

Thank you for visiting the “Hop Into Spring” giveaway hop hosted by The Anti-June Cleaver and Our Piece of Earth blogs. Spring will be here in just a week, and I bet you are all looking forward to warm sunshine, sprouting flowers and singing birds!

My giveaway features two products that we use daily: Best Bottom diaper covers and the bamboo swaddling blankets from Nicki’s.

Nicki’s Diapers now has bamboo swaddling blankets for sale, in both the Imagine and Nicki’s lines (they are sister companies). These high-quality blankets are just as soft and silky and pretty to look at as the expensive boutique brands. Both are very generously sized at 50″ by 45″. The 100% rayon-from-bamboo fabric feels so wonderful to the touch; you and your baby (and probably everyone else in the family, too) will love these blankets.

    • Imagine blankets are on sale for $13.50 with free shipping at Nicki’s Diapers.
    • Nicki’s blankets are just $10.95 each with standard shipping at Nicki’s Diapers.

Ingrid uses her bamboo blanket to snuggle with, as a lap blanket in her carseat and even wraps up her baby doll in it. The lightweight bamboo fabric has a slightly open weave, so it allows for airflow.

Not a day goes by that Ingrid is without this blanket. It’s one of my top picks now as a gift for new babies and their mothers.

They are also plenty big enough to use as a nursing cover, especially because the fabric drapes so nicely.

Nicki’s is also the home of Best Bottom diapers, a versatile AI2 system that can be used in lots of different ways. We’ve used our Best Bottom covers with flats, prefolds and fitteds; we also have a few of the snap-in Best Bottom inserts on hand for really quick changes. You can read my full review of the Best Bottom diaper system here.

Best Bottoms have even worked on our newborns. Here’s the Pink Giraffe cover on Ingrid at about 1 week of age:

All Imagine brand products ship FREE from my affiliate, Nicki’s Diapers, as do all their Best Bottoms covers.

The newest Best Bottoms limited edition print is called Hippity Hop, and it was released just in time for Easter. You can win this highly sought after cover, plus an Imagine bamboo blanket in the beautiful “flutter” print by using the entry from below. Good luck! (GIVEAWAY CLOSED)

    Is this Best Bottoms cover one with the cotton outside? I am curious if there is much difference between the cotton and regular covers as far as stretch and how long they last.

          I think the general recommendation is to wait until 12 months if your baby will be sleeping with the blanket in bad, but for daytime use I would think your son would be ok since he can roll over and lift his head and push something away from his face if it gets in the way. The bamboo fabric is very lightweight and breathable, and the weave is somewhat open to allow for airflow. ~Anne

    I really like the grey chevron, mostly cause it is such a great gender neutral print. But I can I say, I just love the pictures of your Ingrid in the Best Bottom diapers. How it shows up on my screen, it looks like she is holding hands with herself. Its so sweet, I love that age (my youngest is about the same).

      Lindsay, I’m glad I went with the chevron for that very reason – it’s neutral but still nice to look at. Thanks for the compliments on the pictures! And I didn’t even notice how her hands are joined with the two photos side by side in the collage. Love that you noticed that! ~Anne
