The pattern is full of fresh colors, simple motifs and numbers. Every motif is duplicated a number of times, followed by the number that equals the number of motifs.

Teething Bling – Teething Jewelry – Giveaway!

teething_bling_jewelry

Babies just love to pull, bite and suck on jewelry, and thus wearing jewelry while holding a baby can be potentially dangerous for both baby and the jewelry.

But is it any wonder that babies become interested in your bangle or necklace while sitting on your lap? It’s all straight in the babies face screaming “come and get me!”

This is why I think the concept of teething jewelry is simply brilliant, as it replaces all those potential dangers with safe teethers.

SmartMoms Teething Bling is a series teething jewelry consisting of teething bangles (12.75 USD), teething pendants (19.10 USD) and teething keychain charms (15.90 USD) in many fashionable colors.

The teething jewelry is made from a food-safe, phthalate-free and federally-approved silicone, making it completely safe for the baby to chew on.

There are gift boxes available, containing color matching teething jewelry. These gift boxes cost between 28.75 USD and 36.00 USD, depending on what’s in them.

You can buy SmartMoms Teething Bling at the SmartMom website.
