About Us and History

We are a special needs family with a High Functioning Autistic son. We started making blankets when we saw how expensive they were, making them more affordable. Anyone with special needs children knows how costly it is to meet their needs. 




How Can Weighted Blankets Help?

Our weighted blankets are filled with just enough plastic pellets to provide deep pressure touch stimulation. Deep pressure from the weights will cause the body to release serotonin and other endorphins that are natural for sleep and relaxation.  In combination with the darkness that occurs during nighttime hours, the pineal gland converts serotonin to melatonin. Melatonin is our natural sleep-inducing hormone.

People of all ages tend to feel a sense of security when swaddled, wrapping a weighted blanket around the body eases the mind, allowing for complete relaxation.

A weighted blanket is a safe alternative and effective non-drug therapy approach that you and the rest of your family can enjoy.
 

We know the frustration of not getting enough deep sleep. The person suffering feels irritable, lacks energy, and it makes life more difficult for the people around them.  Sleep deprivation affects many areas in a person's life, such as work, grades, and relationships.


A weighted blanket can give you the rest needed

to have a productive and healthy day ahead.     


History

After our vacation in January 2015, we discovered we needed some residual income.  I had periodically been making blankets and lap pads for about two years.  Thus, hoping to increase our income, I decided to advertise my blankets on Facebook.  I expected to only sell a handful of blankets.  We had an unexpected out pouring of interest throughout the United States and even had interest internationally. We have created this website to better serve those who require a more comfortable way to relax, rest and sleep.
