    Babies are so perfect they don't need any adornment.

    well I got a reply to my question:rotfl:

    i quote

    " the rhinestones have a glue attahced to the back of them, which is then attached to the bib and placed under a hot press. The glue melts and the rhinestone hotfixes to the bib"

    I am very tempted to reply back and explain just how unsafe her items are for babies;)

    I will admit to 'blinging' my 13 year old Daughter's sling last month.... she had quite a serious arm injury in September and had to wear an arm brace and one of those awful flesh coloured foam slings. She was so fed up with it that I bought some iron on rhinestone stars from Home Bargains and ironed them on one night. I also added a couple of her favourite band badges and taa daa, fashionable (ish) sling. She loved it lol

    This is the only time I have ever attempted to iron or glue rhinestones on to anything I promise and I'll never do it again. lol

    I wouldn't have a problem with a 13 year old, but babies and toddlers, yeesh

    I think you can be pretty safe that a 13 yr old won't eat them though :rotfl:

    Don't baby clothes have to be tested to ensure they are safe for purpose in the same way toys are?
