How many times do you choose not to wear a necklace with your outfit because you know your little one will only end up trying to swallow it whole?
I have had so many times when Alex would try to eat my necklace or the charm hanging from it that I completely gave up wearing one. How frustrating! There's one more thing that I lose to being a mom!
That's why I was so excited to find out about Smart Mom. This company creates adorable jewelry that was meant to be warn with a baby. It is actually something that was made to go in a baby's mouth without looking like one of those knobby teething rings.
From the website:
We started our company, Smart Mom, LLC, in 2002 as a way to promote pretty and practical ideas for real Moms. Our first product line, Teething Bling pendants and bangles, has been an enormous success and we appreciate all the support and encouragement we’ve received thus far.
We use only the highest-quality, phthalate-free, federally approved silicone in our Teething Bling™ line. The material is non-toxic, latex-free, food–safe, even dishwasher-friendly! It is the same silicone used in many other popular teething products and SGS test reports are available upon request. Although we stress that this is adult jewelry not intended for children to wear, all of our pendants come with a breakaway clasp as an added safety feature.
In honor of the many mothers and children who inspire us daily, a percentage of all retail sales goes to these worthy organizations:

Here are some celeb Mommies and Daddies enjoying their Teething Bling.*Heads up to any "Big" fans of "S" and the City* :)
Giveaway from the Mrs.!
Here's what I'm giving away!
Yep! It's a necklace AND a matching bangle in a "tiffany" blue color. (I left it in the plastic so you'll know that it hasn't been handled. Sorry for the glare.)
This set would cost you over $30 to buy on the website and one of you will win!

That blue camo teething keychain is pretty cool. My daughter is always chewing on my keys!
ReplyDeleteI love the donut shaped necklaces. My son loves chewing on things that are circular. The bangles to match are awesome. This is such a good idea.

I like the heart shaped necklace. what a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great jewelry set. So practical. Now I feel like I need to have another baby so I can justify wearing it. =)
ReplyDeleteI like the donut-shaped necklaces, but my little girl would LOOOVE the heart-shaped ones so I have to say those are my favorites (pink or purple probably). And the metallic ones (coming soon) would look beautiful against my black-ish outfits.
ReplyDeleteI seriously don't wear jewelry at all anymore with three wee ones at home all day. I think I would somehow wear these every day of the week. This is such a novel idea!

ReplyDeleteIn checking out the Smart Mom site, I like the Teething Gift Set. It contains all their products in a varity of colors. This would make a great Baby Shower gift.

My favorite color is orange, so of course I love the Coral Donut Shaped Pendant. My son loves to play with my necklaces. Sometimes I only wear one so that he can play with it.

ReplyDeleteMy Sister , after 10 years of heartacke, her beautiful Jenny Ayn finally arived this past April at 2 pounds.Now at 11 pound and at this wonderful drooling stage... I belived this would be a great present for her mommy. The Tiffany blue is her fav color and being a elm. teacher having jenny going around in a Shakespeare Onesies to boot would just wow the crowds as they walk down the streets of their home town in PA.

These are such a great idea! I could definitely use this set as I'm having a baby girl in two months and if she's anything like her older sister she's going to be chewing on everything in site, including me. My favorite is the Pink Cupcake Donut Shaped Pendant, can't go wrong with pink!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

I have a 4 month old who is really getting into grabbing and chewing so this jewelry would be great. I love that it's made out of the same material as teething toys. I love the donut shaped necklaces.
ReplyDeleteI also like the Jade Teething Bling Keychain---it would be great to hook on to my purse so the baby could chew on it instead of my purse straps. Thanks for the contest!
