Are the designs on your blankets & throws printed onto the fabric, or are they woven into the fabric itself?
All our blankets and throws feature images that are woven into the fabric itself. There is no 'printing' process involved at all. The original digital image is converted into a weaving process which then creates the image within the warp & weft threads of the actual fabric. This process has many advantages, and some limitations.
The advantages are that the image can never be rubbed or washed off, and the color pigments in the fabric will almost never fade — provided it isn’t left outdoors under bright sun for a few years! The weaving process also produces an image that some customers say has the look and feel of a timeless tapestry. The cotton fibers create the image itself, instead of it being painted or printed onto the fabric, which is how many “photo blankets” are produced.
However, this process is not without its drawbacks. Color matching is limited, because the range of thread colors is limited. Therefore, woven blankets and throws can sometimes be more muted in color than the original image.
Why is the white not “pure white” in the blankets?
As explained above, colors are created from available threads. It isn't possible to have only white threads running in both directions on the loom, so “pure white” in an image renders as slightly off-white in a woven blanket.
Will the colors in the blanket be exactly the same as the colors in the photo I send you?
They won’t be a super-duper exact match, no. As explained above, our weavers are limited in the amount of colors they can produce simply because the number of thread colors is limited. However in the vast majority of cases, a close match can be found. We invite you to browse through the different blankets shown on our website, to get an idea of what we can do.
Please take a look at our color variations page for a more detailed explanation.
What material are your blankets made of?
All our blankets are woven with 100% all-natural pure cotton thread.
How long does it take for me to get my blanket?
Production time is usually 2-3 business days plus shipping time of 2-4 business days (to the lower 48 States), so you should receive your blanket in about 7 business days or less from date of order. Rush shipping is an option at checkout if you prefer that.
Can you ship internationally?
Yes, but unfortunately we cannot ship to the European Union due to the extremely strict GPSR regulations that small family businesses like us simply cannot meet. If you're interested in shipping elsewhere outside of the US, please contact us! We'll do our best to make it work.
What are your return policies?
At Snuggle Doodles, we take great pride in creating high-quality, one-of-a-kind blankets designed just for you. Because each blanket is made to order, we’re unable to accept returns or exchanges. However, your happiness is our top priority—if there’s any issue with the quality of your blanket, please let us know, and we’ll do everything we can to make it right!
