Whenever I’m holding River, he immediately zones in on my earring or necklace and tries to put it in his mouth. Rather than constantly pulling my jewelry away from him, I thought I’d make something that he can put in his mouth…and so this Teether Necklace was born! River loves this necklace! It’s the first thing he reaches for when I hold him. The wood ring is perfect for chewing and the wrapped fabric beads give him something to play with.

This necklace is a fast and easy sewing project that any beginner can do. It has a cotton body with velvet ties. It’s lightweight and comfortable to wear.

(Note- this Teether Necklace is intended for an adult to wear. Due to the long strings, an infant should never be left alone with this necklace)
