their story:
Aden + Anais has brought the legacy of muslin together with fashion forward design to create a line of products that are as stylish as they are useful; and as simple as they are beautiful. We believe in muslin–the way it looks, the way it feels, the way it works–to improve the lives of babies and their mothers no matter who they are or where they live.
about muslin:
When it came time to decide what fabric we would use in our products, and especially, in our swaddles we turned to the traditional practices of motherhood — practices that transcend all boundaries of time and culture — and chose muslin. Durable and gentle. Soft and strong. Breathable and comfortable. Time-tested and pure. Today, aden + anais is the steward of muslin's long legacy and ardent believers in its ability to bring mothers and babies closer together.
my thoughts:
I have an aden + anais's cozy sleeping bag for Birdy and I really love it. The muslin is the perfect amount of warmth and protection on these chilly spring nights and it is comforting to have her "swaddled" in a sleep sac versus wrapped up in blankets. Not to mention the fact that I love the print and style. Aden + Anais has beautiful muslin products on their website, provides great instruction on swaddling babies (something I must perfect with my fussy baby number four) and is also doing great charitable work around the world. It is a company that is making helpful, healthy (and stylish) products for children, and also striving to do good in the world around them.

I love their products!
I’ve had one of those on my “to buy” list. I love them.
Oh, these look so soft and lovely!
Another great giveaway. I love their products.
I’ve heard so many good things about their products! This is definitely on my wish list for baby #1 arriving this summer.
this would be fantastic for my baby #4 who should be here any day now! 🙂
i love aden + anais! 🙂
We use their swaddling blankets. Perfect for summer.
so beautiful and love the weight of muslin for a baby.
wow, beautiful. I have the blankets and swear by them, they are so fabulous. no sleeping bag though.
the A&A swaddling blankets are the absolute best … my daughter now uses them as her blankies and she is nearly two!
And to think that I just got an invite to a baby shower where all-natural products are a must.. fantastic!
I was just reading about this company on another pro-swaddling blog!
I’ve heard such wonderful things about their products (from you and everyone else I know, it seems!), I’d love to try it!
LOVE!I am moving away from the full swaddle for my little dude.these bags are perfect!Thanks!
My husband wants to try something like that. Our middle child (I have to get used to calling him that, after Thursday he won’t be the youngest anymore!) always kicked (and still does, really) blankets off at night and then would be too cold.
I may have to try one of these out as per your suggestion. All these new baby products overwhelm me! (:
I love it! What beautiful, practical things. Count me in!
I’ve heard such great things about their products, I would love to try them!
Tweeted this!
Very cute, Molly! I’d never heard of it but we’re back in baby world with #4 due in August. So…count me in, too!
Wow. Beautiful products.
I have a friend that just had a beautiful baby – and t his would be the perfect gift!!!

I have a set of their swaddling blankets, but the sleep sack is too cute!
I have one of their cozy swaddle blankets on loan that I’m just using as a light regular blanket as baby girl doesn’t like being swaddled. It is lovely fabric. I would love to have one of the sleep bags.
cute. would love to be a lucky winner! thank you!
This would solve my “what to put them in” question I am asking myself everynight when I put the twinnies to bed. Their current sleep sacks are too warm but with out one I think they get cold in the early mornings…. Enter me please!
My best friend is due in a month. This would make a great gift.
Oooh I was thinking of buying one of these and I am due in 2 more weeks.
I’d love to give muslin bags a try. We use sleep sacs for our kids and would never do anything else – they are so easy!
First time mommy due in August too…this is SUPER cute and would definitely come in handy!
The giraffe print is adorable!
I’m interested in trying them out…I’ve heard so many good things about them!
tweeted! http://twitter.com/helenlamby/status/12993694318
oh, so lovely! they might be a little cold as we’re heading into winter right now, but i’ll definitely be looking into these when spring comes around again.
Sounds wonderful – i’d love to try with baby #3, due in June!
I never tried these with my first and would love to try on baby #2 due soon.
How sweet… Just found out that my Big sister from my sorority is expecting… would be a great shower gift! =)
Oh I have a new niece these would be perfect for! Count me in!
I LOVE this company! I have some of their swaddle blankets and would be tickled to enjoy their sleepsacks with our next baby on the way.
I love this company! I have some of their swaddle blankets that I’ve loved and am excited about trying out their sleepsacks with the next baby on the way!
What a beautiful and cozy treat! Thanks for sharing!
love it! want it!
I love baby bags! They are much better than blankets or those chemical filled sleepers.
these are my favorite swaddling blankets and I’d lovet o try the sleep sack with baby #4!
I also retweeted the giveaway.
I’d love to try this for my “active” sleeper!
This is on my wish list for our new baby boy. I would love one!Thank you!
lovely….
I’m excited to try these swaddlers!
Sadly, we are done having babies, but I have a dear friend/coworker that is expecting their first. I love helping friends find new & wonderful baby products and I can live vicariously thru them. 🙂
A friend gave us some Aden & Anais swaddling blankets for our babyshower. They are lovely and feel wonderful! We’d love have a baby sac! Thanks for the opportunity to be entered in the give-away!
Thanks for the giveaway! I would love to try their products!
Their blankets are my favorite!
I became a fan on Facebook!
Oh, really cute-I’ve been on the hunt for one of these for a while now with baby#1 due in Sept-we have quite chilly nights here in the fall-sounds warm & cozy!
I’d love to try one out, I’m due with baby3 this summer and would like a light weight alternative.
Read great things about their swaddle blankets, would love to get one of these for my nephew!
I would love to put my baby in one of these for the summer!
OOOOO!! We like! We Like Muah Much!!! Baby girl #4 due in July 🙂
a friend gave me one of their swaddling blankets when I was pregnant with my third child. I wish I had know about them sooner! They make the best blankets hands down.
These look so lovely. Thank you for introducing me to a “new” company.
Would it work for a summer baby? The wearable blanket we got is way too big for a newborn. I’m curious as to whether muslin would be a good choice for warm weather.
Thanks for the tip, I didn’t know about this company
oh these look so soft! and they are so adorable! another thing to add to my list of things to get in the next couple of weeks before the little one gets here.
Oooh- I love muslin! What a unique choice for a business theme! I will be checking out this website for sure!
Muslin is divine for babies!
i love sleep sacks! would love to enter!
My new little niece needs one of these!!!
These look lovely for baby.
So cute and practical.
What cute sleeping/bath items! I might have to get one of the security blankets right now.
Oh these are so beautiful! I really love them.
so great!
