The Snuggie


If you've never heard of "The Snuggie" then you either live under a rock, in a cave....or you're dead. And the latter seems pretty suspicious. There really is no excuse for not knowing what a snuggie is. However, if you need a refresher click ON THIS and you can read a previous post regarding what this glorious invention is. Last week I just received my first snuggie from my friend, Nikki after sarcastically lamenting on facebook how I didn't get a snuggie under the Christmas tree. She doesn't know it yet, but this snuggie has changed my life!

The Snuggie boasts being a cuddly blanket with the benefit of having arms, to make life easier....you know, like when you want to sit on the couch and read your ebook. But they forget to tell you the unspoken rule of snuggie wearing: You MUST wear heels with it at all times. Failure to do so will result in any or all of the following: self-destruct/implode into a firey ball of flames, instantaneous sprouting of a beard, immediate development of hemorrhoids. Not that I know from experience or anything. *sputter* So just put a pair of heels on, okay?!?



After a few days of wearing the snuggie whilst reading on the couch, I realized how much more potential the snuggie has. So I began to experiment.


Tired of a drab old kitchen table? Well, spice up your dinner menu with the leopard print snuggie! It catches all your crumbs, is easy to wash and your daughter will continually pet the table calling it "Baby Jaguar."




Out of town guests unexpectedly show up at your front door and you're worried about that big stain on the chair? No problem! Just throw that snuggie on top and VOILA it's a completely refurbished chair! (Now just ignore the comment your guest made about how your house has such 'lovely' 80's decor. They're just jealous).



Oh no! You've forgotten your son's swim suit. But since you're already at the beach, and OF COURSE you carry your snuggie with you wherever you go, simply convert it into a ready-to-go swim suit. Now look! He's ready to go. And look how stylish and HAPPY your kid is!



Having to drive somewhere and your hands are constantly chilled by the cold steering wheel? Have no fear the snuggie is here! Look how your hands stay nice and warm, not to mention how trendy your car looks now.



But don't forget the most important part! Purposely embarrassing your kids by picking them up from school with the snuggie on. They'll LOVE it when you roll down the window, shout their name (while they are standing with a group of friends) and sloppily wave, showing off the beauty that is a leopard print snuggie. Nothing screams, "Hey, kids! I'm a cool mom" more than wearing a snuggie while driving.



Don't you just hate it when your shower curtain no longer works? How annoying! It happens to me all the time. So I just put up my snuggie on the curtain rod and look at the amazing transformation of my bathroom!  (But don't tell the curtain it looks like it has post-breast-feeding boobs. You will hurt it's feelings).



And check this out..... a multi use snuggie!!!! Just pull that shower curtain down and wrap that sucker on your head. The snuggie wicks away water so quickly and you'll notice bouncier hair with greater volume! It's a two-for-one deal!



Want to be like all those cool people who have strange looking fuzzy things on their toilet lid? Well, I sure do! And I bet you do too.


Heck, why not make the snuggie your toilet paper too?!?!? I mean, let's be eco-friendly here people.





Run out of diapers? Don't panic. The snuggie can easily be used as stylish yet affordable cloth diapers. The snuggie absorbs more than your average piece of material that is laying around your house and it prevents leaks....most of the time. But what do you expect? You're the dumb @$$ that ran out of diapers!



Let's not forget about setting a major fashion statement. Yes, you can show the world your fashionista side by throwing on a pair of boots or pumps and be ready to part-ay. A skirt, or jacket....you decide! The possibilities are endless. You will be the envy of all your friends if you sport one of these bad boys.

A Princess, five guys - then me!! said...

AWESOME POST! Hard to choose the best, but I think it was probably the shower curtain boob comment ;) You are making me want to run out and buy one of my own.

Stacey said...

All of a sudden I fin myself tempted to hang a snuggle in my bathroom or create a wall tapestry with Pringles snack tube dispensers!!!

Did you ever see my Red Thing series from back in March of 2008? The Snuggie and The Red Thing would be great companions. The Red Thing did many things that the Snuggie did in your post. http://familyfishbowl.blogspot.com/2008/04/what-another-picture.html

Thank you so much for the laugh! I do think the red heels are a must with the snuggie!

Alright my dear you really do have too much time on your hands or is it because you have been house bound because of our horrendous weather?? My Grandchildren don't look real happy either I am waiting for the phone call can we have a drop off.

Rosie said...

Oh my, that was just TOO funny! The shower curtain paints quite a visual picture. Now don't be surprised if the MAKERS of that stylish little miracle product call, and BEG you to do a commercial.
Thanks so much for the giggle...Rosie

Steff said...

Haaahahahaha. It's crazy because it looks so huge when you have it as a shower curtain, yet it can be so small as to fit as a diaper!
