Review and Giveaway: Teething Bling

Any parent knows the struggle of having a baby that is teething... Grabbing any and everything to soothe those emerging teeth, drool all over that beautiful necklace you got for Christmas, not to mention pulling on said necklace and possibly damaging the clasps!

Well, there is no need to worry about your jewelry anymore, because Teething Bling has come up with a great product that is both fashionable and practical - so fashionable that you can even find celebrities sporting the same necklace you have on!! From Tori Spelling to Angela Bassett, many celebrities have been seen wearing one of the 14 styles of jewelry that Teething Bling offers.

Let me start by letting you know what I am dealing with at home... I have a busy little 2 year old who is slowly getting her teeth in. She only has 5 teeth right now and when this product arrived to me, she was getting all 4 of her molars in AT ONCE! Talk about a relief when my Onyx Donut Necklace come in the mail (only about a week after requesting it, talk about fast!).

I put the necklace on and as soon as I showed my daughter, she was hooked! She said "ohhh mommy pretty, can I bite? " After that she was begging me to hold her and always had the necklace in her mouth.

We've tried amber teething necklaces, the teething tablets, the gel, everything. Nothing has helped her, but this product has kept her distracted and not chewing on her fingers! That's a big plus in my book.

Since the Teething Bling necklace is a soft Silicone, there is no need to worry about sharp edges or a hard stone.

The Nylon cord which holds the silicone donut is soft and in no way bothered my skin (I have extremely sensitive skin)

The clasp is said to breakaway easily, I personally had to really yank at it to get it to come undone. I am not sure how much pressure is needed to actually break away the clasp, and I may have been doing it too lightly. With that being said, overall, I really enjoyed this product and the way it looked, felt and how my daughter enjoyed it.

After a little research on Teething Bling/Smart Mom Jewelry, I was even more intrigued by the product and company itself. This company was created by a bunch of moms who have come together for the greater cause, our children. Amy Creel, the owner of the company, started this company in inspiration and memory of her late sister-in-law, an accomplished fashion designer and artist.In her memory, the company works with Dress for Success, a charity that helps economically challenged women get on their feet by providing both professional clothing and career support and development.

The mission of the company, the quality of the product, the variety that is offered, are all things, I as a mother look for when choosing something of this nature. I will be recommending this to a few of my mama friends in the near future and hope you take a moment to check out the website so you can see first hand what I did!
