Nut of the Month

My youngest son and I are crazy about the new ChappyWrap blankets. You may associate blankets with winter, but think again. Spring is time to be outside watching a game, having a picnic or listening to a concert. This cozy blanket will keep you dry and warm when you are sitting on the cold damp spring grass and double as a wrap to protect you against those not quite summer yet cool breezes. How many times have you sat on the sideline of a spring sporting event and found yourself freezing? Or, you venture out for an early summer boat ride or beach outing, the wind picks up and you are cold? Black Squirrel has you covered with the perfect spring blanket – a ChappyWrap. You will want to keep one in your car, boat and beach bag.

We discovered these comfy blankets at the NYC gift show. Here is our attraction:


  1. they feel great
  2. they are practical
  3. they are oversized
  4. they are easy to care for
  5. they are way “cooler” than other stadium/beach blankets


ChappyWraps are 60% cotton to provide extra fluffiness, 33% acrylic and 7% polyester to prevent shrinkage and pilling. Reversible, machine washable, and extremely durable, ChappyWraps are sure to become your everyday blankets ($105). They certainly have for me.

So far our ChappyWraps have seen our couches, beds, hockey rinks, and sidelines. I can’t wait to use a star ChappyWrap at this year’s July 4th fireworks.

ChappyWraps make great gifts. Stay cozy.
