Warm and Fuzzy Gifts

Harry Potter Hogwarts Throw 
$39.00 • The Northwest • Get Yours Now

It’s weird how much of a rivalry there is among Harry Potter fans about which house in Hogwarts is the best? Inthe end, who cares if you are a Hufflepuff or a Slytherin? You are going to a school for wizards!  In the spirit of coming together, regardless of your house, we want to suggest this super-cozy, sillk-touch throw that not only celebrates the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but it celebrates the four animals that represent Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Gryffendor. If the Harry Potter fan on your gift list can’t get behind snuggling up under this blanket for a movie marathon, then we may as well all surrender to he who shall not be named!


The Mandalorian Baby Yoda Throw
$12.76 • The Northwest • Get Yours Now

Is there a single cuter little dude in the entire universe right now than The Child, aka, Baby Yoda? The surprise from the first episode of Disney+’s The Mandalorian is probably the best thing to happen to Star Wars merchandising in a decade, and who can even blame Disney on this one? He’s just so cute? So cute that anyone would be happy to curl up in an adorable fleece blanket with him on it. It doesn’t matter if you’re hiding under it so you don’t have to watch the ice spiders, or you are hiding from it, because watching the little guy eat the eggs of someone’s family is just a little too much to take, even in 2020. This is a soft, adorable, warm blanket that anyone would love to have. 


The Mandalorian Baby Yoda Cloud Pillow –
$24.95 • The Northwest • Get Yours Now

We didn’t understand why they called this a cloud pillow until we held it in our arms and gave it a squeeze. We don’t know what they put inside this pillow representation of The Mandalorian’s Baby Yoda in his floating carrier, but it has to be something magical. It’s definitely not just cotton. This thing is too squishy and cuddly. This pillow is a fun gift for kids or adults. It can sit on your bed or on the sofa with you while you watch the newest episode of The Mandalorian on Disney+. Five different people picked this pillow up around the office and all of them wanted to take it home. It’s just so darn squishy!


The Hobbit, Middle Earth Woven Tapestry Throw Blanket, 48″ x 60″
$32.67 •The Northwest • Get Yours Now

Fleece blankets are cute, but when you are dealing with something as special as Lord of the Rings, a tapestry blanket seems a little more appropriate. Don’t think that means this isn’t a warm and cuddly blanket, because it is. It just also happens to have a map on it that will guide you from the Shire of Hobbiton all the way East to Isengard. If you want to get to Mount Doom though, we suggest you take an eagle. It is so much faster than hiking in on foot. This tapestry blanket is a beautiful and warm gift to give to any fan of The Hobbit or Lord of The Rings this holiday season, and just about the perfect thing to curl up under when you watch all of the extended editions during your Christmas Break!


Disney – Mickey and Minnie “Winter Skate” Tapestry Throw Blanket, 48″ x 60″
$35.00 •The Northwest • Get Yours Now

Blankets and quilts are nice, but you’ve got to have the special blankets that you pull out for the holidays. The ones that not only keep you warm but help make the house that much more festive. If you are a Mickey and Minnie fan, you can’t do much better than The Northwest’s Mickey and Minnie’s Winter Skate tapestry blanket. At 48” x 60”, this blanket makes a great decoration, draped over your sofa during the holidays, but it also makes for the perfect blanket to curl up under with someone you love and watch Mickey’s Christmas Carol, or even better, The Muppet Christmas Carol!


Gravity Blanket
$195.00 • Gravity Blanket • Get Yours Now

In a year like 2020, with generalized anxiety disorder being pretty much the status quo for humanity, the gravity blanket is a godsend. We didn’t understand the value of a weighted blanket until we got under one. Whoah, we weren’t expecting that. The slight pressure the blanket even lays over your whole body has an amazingly calming effect. You don’t feel like you are being crushed, but just warmly hugged. We don’t understand all of the science here, but we can totally attest to the fact that it lowers stress and makes for a much more restful night of sleep. We can understand why these blankets have become such an important part of life for people with anxiety disorders or people on the autism spectrum. With that said, every single person we had climb under the blanket did not want to come back out. 


Pizza Blanket
$29.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Pizza is the most comforting food in the world. After all, humans buy more than 500 million of them every year. But, while there might not be many things better than pulling a slice of cold pizza from the fridge the morning after the night before, we think that being able to curl up in a big, cuddly pie might be it. this 60″, round blanket is not only warm, soft, and cozy as hell, but it’s a freakin pizza! This thing is just about the ultimate non-edible gift for any pizza lover out there. Even if pizza isn’t your thing, just imagine how cool it would be to curl up in this blanket for a marathon of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on a cold winter’s day!


Burrito Round Tortilla Blanket
$29.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Have you ever heard someone say they were going to burrito themselves up in a blanket? Anyone who says that and isn’t using this blanket is a liar. If you aren’t burritoing yourself up in a 5′ wide blanket that actually looks like a giant flour tortilla, who are you even trying to fool? Look, it’s hard to even imagine why we’d need to tell people that this is a great gift. It’s 60″ of cozy, fleece goodness that you can wrap yourself up in so you can be as warm and toasty as the inside of an actual burrito. Can you think of a better thing to wrap yourself up in on a cold winter’s day?


Golden Girls Combo: Retro Fleece Blanket + FREE Air Freshener
$35.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

We all have that friend who spends every Sunday morning watching Golden Girls marathons on TV Land, and we all know who is the Rose and who is the Blanche out of our friends. If you don’t, there’s a good chance that you’re the Dorothy. For those people, we’ve got the perfect gift for you. This retro-80s-style fleece blanket featuring all of the Golden Girls. It’s so bright and colorful that it should be wearing jelly bracelets. But, on top of that, it’s more comforting than tucking into a slice of cheesecake with the girls. As an added bonus, this blanket comes with your very own Golden Girls air freshener. You can give it to your friend with the blanket, or do what we did and hang it from your read view mirror.


My Hero Academia Combo: Fleece Blanket + FREE Puffy Sticker Set
$35.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Whether you are a My Hero Academia fan yourself, or you just have a friend who keeps yelling “Plus Ultra!” This combo set is a great gift for them… or for you. Along with being as warm and toasty as all of the great fleece blankets from Stunned mind, we love that the design features nearly every main character from the anime. Also, when is the last time you’ve had puffy stickers, let along puffy stickers that are this cool?!?


Naruto Wearable Blanket
$29.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Have any of your friends tried to storm Area 51 in the last couple of years? We aren’t saying 2020 is their fault, but the world was chugging along like normal until people started Naruto Running at Groom Lake. Still, it doesn’t mean that your friend doesn’t deserve to be cozy this holiday season. For them, or anyone who just loves Naruto, we love this super warm, super cuddly, Naruto wearable blanket. I’m not sure we can call it a Snuggy, but it’s a Snuggy. It’s polar fleece with a sherpa backing and it’s one of the most comfortable things we’ve wrapped ourselves up in this year.


Dungeons & Dragons Combo: Fleece Blanket + FREE Sticker
$35.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Dungeons & Dragons has been going through a major resurgence for the last couple of years. It’s not only been growing in popularity among us normal geeks, celebrities like Vin Diesel and Joe Manganiello run their own games with their famous friends. Whether you have your own star on the walk of fame, or you are just playing in a virtual game with friends to get through the pandemic, we love this fleece blanket adorned with the illustration from the cover of the Dungeon Master’s guide. It’s the perfect thing to curl up under whether you are sipping some tea or raiding a cave of trolls. As an added bonus, it even comes with an awesome, over-sized D20 sticker!


Sonic The Hedgehog Combo Fleece Blanket + FREE Car Decal Sticker
$35.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

There are two types of people who yell “Gotta Go Fast!” Sonic the Hedgehog fans, and people who should probably make an appointment with their urologist. For the former, this fleece blanket from Stunned Mind is the perfect gift to slip under their tree this holiday season. The cozy fleece blanket features imagery of the game’s titular hedgehog, and we mean the actual one from your memories, not the weird one from the live-action movie. Along with the blanket, buyers get the added treat of a Sonic car decal. We think this can come in handy when you inevitably get pulled over for speeding. When the cop asks you what’s the hurry? Just point at the decal and say “Gotta go fast!” The two of you will have a great laugh, or he’ll make you walk a line and breathe into a tube. Either way, you’ll want to curl up under this blanket when you get home.


My Hero Academia Deku Blanket
$29.99 • Stunned Mind • Get Yours Now

Not since Crying Freeman (yes, we’re that old) have we met an anime hero who sheds as many tears as U.A high school’s Izuku Midoriya, or Deku, as his friends call him. Still, Deku’s adventures as he learns to control the One For All power passed down to him by All Might has captured the world’s attention. If you haven’t checked out My Hero Academia, you should. And, if you have a friend who already loves the anime or manga, this Deku fleece blanket is the perfect gift to give them this holiday season. it’s 5′ of cuddly goodness with an awesome portrait of Deku to curl up in. This is going to look as good wrapped around you as it will draped over your couch when you aren’t using it.
