Chewbeads

We all have moments when we look at something so simple but smart and think…“Why didn’t I think of that?!” Chewbeads is that latest item. Cute jewelry that is bright and fun but your child is able to chew on and play with while not ruining your “good stuff”.

Here are a few reasons why chewbeads are great:

Beads are made with 100% silicone (similar to pacifiers & nipples)

Soft on babies gums and emerging teeth

Easily cleaned with dish soap & water, also dishwasher safe!

No BPA, PVC, Phthalates, Cadmium, or Lead

Necklaces have a breakaway clasp for added safety

Necklaces are a great sensory tool to help your baby focus while nursing

Bracelets are a colorful reminder of which side you've just nursed

Come in and grab your chewbeads today!

Soft Printed Elegance

Do you love print? What about color? Finding a balance between both can be tough but this nursery married both in such a lovely way. Although the room is a small space it does not feel packed, having pops of both bright and soft color is key as well as layering the heights of the furniture in the room creates visual interest. Small accents with the accessories create a soft elegant feel. Check out more photos from Eulalia's nursery at http://www.oneclaireday.blogspot.com/2011/09/room-tour-eulalies-nursery.html
