MAGIC is a reflection of what is happening in the industry - what you see here is what you'll be seeing in stores."

Just Zip It!

Finally, getting your little one ready for bed will be a snap…or should we say zip with SwaddleDesigns new wearable baby blanket, the zzZipMe Sack™. Designed with plush fabric inside and out, the zzZipMe Sack™ has a clever zipper that zips from top to bottom for easy access, and from bottom to top for nighttime diaper changes. "After your baby graduates from swaddling, the zzZipMe Sack™ is the perfect transition for growing babies," says Lynette.

Made with ultra soft fuzzy fabric and satin binding, the zzZipMe Sack™ is available in SwaddleDesigns exclusive prints.

Meet Lynette Damir, Founder of SwaddleDesigns

Lynette was inspired to create stylish and functional products to help parents care for their new babies. As a registered nurse and mother of two, she understood the importance of babies feeling secure as they travel from the womb to the world. Lynette shopped for swaddling blankets and she was not satisfied with what was available. Most new moms she spoke to remembered how cozy their newborns looked in the hospital but never could create the same swaddle wrap. Lynette used her nursing background and her design education at the Seattle Art Institute to design the Ultimate Receiving Blanket. Lynette designs SwaddleDesigns' exclusive prints and she selects every component based on its color, quality and texture. Today, Lynette offers new parents not only an award winning Swaddling Blanket but also fashion forward baby accessories, such as Baby Lovie™ and Baby Burpies™. All the products and the new collections are fun to mix and match with over 50 prints and colors.
