::GIVEAWAY CLOSED:: Congrats to Auriette & Jamie!
There is nothing better than putting on your favorite sweatpants and snuggling up with a comfy blanket, right? Heck, most days I stay in my sweat pants all day long. Yeah, it’s the glamorous life of a SAHM, I know. It truly is the simple things in life that give us comfort, like sweat pants and blankets. And chocolate.
A few weeks ago, PJ over at Real Men Drive Minivans (awesome blog title) asked if I would help him promote the Sweartshirt Blanket, and in addition, have a custom “Mom Spark” Sweatshirt Blanket created just for me. It was a no-brainer. Seriously. A Sweartshirt Blanket? I’m sold.
I emailed PJ the Mom Spark logo, picked out my favorite Sweartshirt Blanket color (Athletic Heather Gray), and in a couple weeks I received my custom blankets. They. Are. Awesome. And extremely comfy. Ask my husband, I’m wrapped up in my Sweartshirt Blanket every night now. So soft and cozy. The logo came out quite nicely too, check it out:
The Official Mom Spark Blanket
Here are the specs:
- Measures 54″ X 84″ in size
- Made out of 14 ounce sweatshirt fleece and weight 2.7 pounds
- As a result, they are 33% thicker than the industry standard
- Constructed using a ring spun process giving them a soft touch
- Anti-pill finish, which means they won’t thin out over time
- 100% preshrunk
- Wrinkle resistant
In addition to using at home on the couch, the Sweartshirt Blanket is perfect for staying warm and snug during outside sporting events, or even spreading out on the grass for a picnic on a warm day. You can get any logo, image, or text you want printed on your blanket, like your sports team mascot, college fraternity, or business logo. The Sweartshirt Blanket has also been used to help raise funds for charities, like the Susan G. Komen for the Cure. If you just want a plain blanket with no print, they can do that too.
I am very happy with the overall quality and softness of the blanket. It isn’t too heavy or thick, but still warm enough to keep me happy and content. I was very impressed with the print of the Mom Spark logo as well. It is done professionally and isn’t scratchy or bulky using the blanket. I really do love this blanket.
To learn more about the Sweatshirt Blanket and to order your own, please visit www.sweartshirt.com. Pricing starts at $19.98 a blanket, and discounts are provided when ordering in bulk. See full pricing HERE.

I would donate them to my kid’s school Although I don’t always agree with them, the special education teachers that work with my son at this school and how the school encourages and implements kindness among all students is really what gives me a good feeling that he is ok when he is away from me. I can’t help the school functions financially but maybe they could raise some money that would benefit it’s students with these blankets if I won.

Well, I am the e-marketing director for the Salvation Army in Tulsa and I think these would be a great giveaway for our social media fans! They would also make great raffle items at our fundraisers! Plus, my last name is Sparks and that has to get me extra points! Seriously, love the blankets and I want one for home but I would really like to win some for the Salvation Army! Ohhh, I could give one away in a drawing at the shelter, imagine if someone who didn’t have a home had one of these snuggly blankets to keep them warm….
Thanks MomSpark!!

I would like to donate these wonderful Sweatshirt Blankets to Trilogy, a day care center for multiply disabled adults.
Thank you.

Thanks for promoting this- what a terrific idea, sweatshirt blankets! I want to enter the contest- I would love to donate the blankets to Redemption Centre a warming center for homeless people. Shelters are open from 9pm to 7am Redemption Centre gives homeless folks a place where they can clean up, rest, eat, an address and phone number for job and housing hunting. A comfort like these would go a long way to make someone’s body and soul warm.
Thanks again.

I would love to be able to donate the blankets to the Homeless Veterans in Illinois. My father is currently homeless and living there. This organization is helping him get back on his feet. By donating this blankets to this org you will be helping keep the men warm who keep the US safe

I would love to donate them to my favorite Animal Shelter, The Nashua Humane Society, partly because the animals always need warm, soft items to lay on and partly because when i lost my 17 year old dog, they were wonderful. They held my hand through the cremation process, drove his urn and ashes to my house and called me on the anniversary of his death to see how I was doing that day. Amazing organization!!

I’d like to donate the blankets to the March of Dimes. I am on the committee for our March for Babies walk in Woodward. These blankets would be an excellent fundraiser for March for Babies. Or an excellent prize for outstanding fundraising. Either way, these awesome blankets will help us raise money for babies!! Not to mention, I’d like to have one myself….they are very nice blankets. Thanks for doing this Amy!!
One day all babies will be born healthy, but we have to walk to get there.

I would donate six custom Sweatshirt Blankets to my teens’ High School in my community. Being able to help 6 needy teens, that’s in my neighborhood, would mean a lot to me and them.
