Max Daniel Designs

A Few of Our Favorite Things!

Andrea — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 23:00:17 +0000

At Max Daniel Designs, we find ourselves constantly seeking inspiration for our beloved baby blankets in surprising and unexpected places. Of course, we love the beautiful animals that are the inspiration for some of our bestselling prints, but the love that goes into our blankets can be found in so many other areas too! Here we put together some of our favorite things that tell a little more of the story of the Max Daniel brand!

A perfect picture for us! A snuggle-moment caught between a giraffe and zebra – we can’t think of a better image to capture the loving warmth that goes into each and every one of our blankets!

We love the vintage feel of beautiful old barns…and set next to a calm lake? Perfection.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at the fabulous Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas…and what’s not to love about a chocolate fountain?

The wonderful Desert Hideaway Inn at Joshua Tree offers so many amazing opportunities to explore nature and relax. This is a favorite vacation destination spot for the Max Daniel Family!

Baby cheetahs are so snuggly and cute, just like their namesake print in the Max Daniel collection!

The famous blooming fields of California poppies paint the landscape every year with a perfect scene of serenity. We love and celebrate nature in all it’s splendor!

The Joshua Tree National Forest is an amazing place to hike, explore, and enjoy nature. It is one of our favorite places to have a grand adventure!

Ah, Tuscany. Just the name itself evokes visions of warm summer nights and endless glasses of wine alongside plates of mouthwatering cuisine, with green fields for strolling and lush vineyards as far as the eye can see.

Of course, our list would not be complete without some adorable babies, the whole reason behind what we do. Nothing make us happier than seeing our littlest fans tucked snuggle inside a favorite Max Daniel blanket!

A quote we love is, “Live well, love much, laugh often.” From all of us at Max Daniel, we wish you enjoyment in your own moments, and your own personal list of favorite things!

2011: A Look Back at a Wonderful Year at Max Daniel!!!!

Andrea — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 00:30:34 +0000

As 2011 draws to a close, we can’t believe what a busy, amazing, eventful year this has been! We are so excited to look back at 2011 and review all the incredible things that have taken place for us in the Max Daniel family! Between the booming popularity of our new prints, the iconic celebs who have been spotted with our blankets, the charities with whom we’ve collaborated, and all the BEAUTIFUL pictures our fans have shared with us, 2011 is truly a year we will never forget! Lets have a look back at some of our favorite happenings!

Our baby blankets and decadent adult throws have always been adored by celeb moms, and this year has seen our love from the stars grow even more! Celeb tots have been regularly spotted with their Max Daniel blankets in the arms of their celebrity moms, including Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Garner, and Jennifer Lopez. Additionally, Kidman opened a charitable boutique for the Stanford Women’s Cancer Center on Rue La La featuring a number of items handpicked by Kidman herself and included…guess who??? Yes, that’s right, Max Daniel Designs!!! Kidman is one of our biggest celebrity clients, and her beautiful daughters are often seen snuggling with our blankets!

We are also very proud and honored to have been a part of numerous charitable activities, including Bows for Ruby and The Ronald McDonald House. Helping families in need is a cause that is always near and dear to our hearts! Nothing makes us happier than knowing our blankets have brought joy to a little one in need of some extra love and care.

We had some exciting contests, and shopping sprees, including a recent giveaway on EXTRA with Mario Lopez, and KIIS FM, with Ryan Seacrest promoting our fabulous blankets as a holiday must have item! We were also proud to be featured in SO many online blogs and baby publications such as TOTTS magazine, who named Max Daniel as a ‘top find for your little angel’.

This year we were also THRILLED to introduce some of our most exciting and popular new patterns ever! We love input from our wonderful customers, and we have heard unbelievable feedback about these new designs! Thank you for welcoming the newest members of the Max Daniel Family, Blue Giraffe, Hot Pink Jaguar, and Pink Giraffe, which was the winner of the coveted Iparent Media Award!

It’s been an unforgettable year, and many thanks to you, our loyal fans, for helping to spread the word about our wonderful blankets. We cannot wait for all the exciting things coming up in 2012! We’ll have more new prints, more news, and more of our ever-popular photo contests and giveaways! Make sure you are a fan on our Facebook page so that you won’t miss out on any of these exciting opportunities!

Happy Holidays and best wishes for a prosperous and peaceful New Year!!

Max Daniel Wishes You and Yours a Happy Thanksgiving!!

erica — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 10:17:43 +0000

Thanksgiving is here! Like other families at this time of year, we are terribly excited to gather together and share stories, laugh, and of course eat delicious treats! While preparing, making arrangements, and enjoying the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday weekend, we thought of the many things in life we are thankful for – of course we are thankful for our Max Daniel family, including all our employee, fans, and followers who love our blankets AND share those joyful pictures of their little ones with us! We are never more thankful for the place we have in your hearts and homes than when we receive pictures of your precious sons and daughters enjoying their Max Daniel Blankets! We put so much love into our work, and we hope that you are all able to feel that love through every warm snuggle you have with our famous throws! More than anything, being a part of your family’s memories is something we hold very near and dear.

In the midst of our planning, scheduling, shopping and chopping in preparation for the big day on Thursday and the end of this year (and for the upcoming release of our two newest prints!!) we were also able to reflect on the historical impact this special day in history truly had on us personally. This holiday is famous for its message of peace and goodwill, and history shows us that Indians traded their warm, cozy, thick blankets with the Pilgrims as a sign of friendship and comraderie. And while the look and texture of blankets has certainly evolved over the subsequent centuries, the intent is still the same: from our hearts to yours, every stitch of our snuggly blankets is made with kind intentions and a message of warmth to you and your little ones from us!

This Thanksgiving, we want to express just how grateful we are for all our fans and friends who are constantly showing us how much their Max Daniel Blankets mean to their families. We have seen your children laugh, grow, cuddle, and slumber, all with our blankets in tow – but even more, we are thankful that YOU are all also falling in love with Max Daniel Adult Throws! As the chilly months truly set in upon us, hearing the glowing reviews from our fans about just how essential our warm, snuggle blankets are to your own holiday comfort brings us all the satisfaction we need.

What’s more is that this month, on top of everything we are thankful for, we are simply bursting to share our TWO new prints with you!! We are working to complete the first round of products as we speak, and we are literally days away from unveiling our end of the year surprise! We know that you will simply love them!

From our hearts to your hearths, Max Daniel wishes you all a safe, warm, happy and delicious Thanksgiving!

A Max Daniel Halloween!

erica — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 23:10:40 +0000

Tonight is the night when dry crackling leaves fly
Like witches on switches across the sky…
When ghosts and goblins hunt and spy,
For Halloween treats, from Max Daniel Designs!

Halloween is finally upon us, and we couldn’t be more excited (do you like our spooooky Jack o’Lanterns??…)! October is always one of our favorite times of year, with the treats, and changing leaves, and turning weather, and costume planning too! And there’s nothing like curling up on the couch by a fire, hot cocoa and good book in hand, and wrapping up in the warmest, softest (and chicest) blanket there is! Nothing says ‘Fall is here!’ like these cold days that make snuggle time so nice, and the earthy tones of these sinfully soft and decadent throws will have you craving pumpkin pie in no time…

Snuggle in a Max Daniel signature animal print throw…

…or in classic toned Rosebuds & Satin (Mocha, Champagne, Chocolate or Ivory)

And of course, we are so very proud of the Halloween spirit at the Max Daniel house this year that we HAD to share with you! Our family mantle is actually something of a local icon during this spooky season, and we are always so excited every year when we get to break out the spiders, lanterns, critters…and of course….the vulture, not to mention our plethora of pumpkins outside! The neighborhood kids always get a thrill to sneak that first peak at the Max Daniel Halloween mantle, and we invite you to share!

From our hearth to yours, the Max Daniel family wishes you all a safe, snuggly, and delicious Halloween weekend!

Max Daniel Donates to AT&T and Ronald McDonald House Charity Event

erica — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 19:04:53 +0000

At Max Daniel, we are proud every day that our blankets are able to bring warmth, happiness, and a smile to the faces of the children who love them! But even beyond this, Max Daniel always welcomes the chance to use our famous blankets to benefit a worthy cause. Next month, in partnership with the Ronald McDonald House, AT&T will be holding its 2^nd Annual Customer Appreciaton Gala at the famous charity’s Los Angeles location. For over thirty years, the Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House has been providing support to families of critically ill children, and Max Daniel is proud and honored to be donating a Pink Giraffe set to this amazing cause.

This year’s appreciation event is another crucial way to help raise the funds to ensure that the Ronald McDonald House continues providing families with a “home-away-from-home” in their greatest time of need. We hope that the event is a great success, and that our donation is able to help the Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House achieve it’s goals!

Max Daniel Supports “Bows for Ruby”

erica — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 19:16:01 +0000

We at Max Daniel are constantly inspired by the stories and pictures we receive from loyal fans whose precious children love our blankets. But we were also recently so touched by a very special cause that came to our attention called Bows for Ruby. The facebook fundraiser page “Bows for Ruby” was created by Jennifer Romero in Huntington Beach, CA in an effort to use her own custom hair and bow-tie business to help close friends Matt and Ani Taylor pay for the hefty medical bills their baby girl, Ruby Jane, incurred during her fight against liver failure. Little did Jennifer know how just how fast or far the name Ruby Jane would spread, and today the cause has literally thousands of followers who have been touched by this beautiful story.

Tragically, Baby Ruby lost her courageous struggle – but the cause lives on in her name. Bows for Ruby is currently holding an auction, and Max Daniel was honored to donate a new Pink Giraffe Baby Throw to support the growing effort to assist the Taylor family. Click here to view and participate in the auction!

Baby Ruby has already inspired so many, and we could not be more thrilled to contribute to a cause so beautiful. Please visit the page, learn about this touching story, and lets show Bows for Ruby how supportive Max Daniel fans can be!
