Product review: Sweet Pea Ring Slings
By Moriah on January 28th, 2010
I don’t often blog about things I buy (because hello, awkward) but this gem I definitely want to highlight because I looooove it. And there may be another mama out there looking for a good ring sling.
Anyway, Andy got me a silk sling for Christmas, per my wish list. Mine is a little greener of a blue than the one pictured but the cream is the same. It’s from Sweet Pea Ring Slings and the owner, Christie, is fabulous to work with. I highly, highly recommend.
A couple of particular things I love about this sling… It has a light padding on the ring shoulder that is hidden within the fabric — it is amazingly comfortable. I also love her “Eclipse” shoulder with the vertical stitching (not horizontal across the fabric above the rings). It’s visually pleasing and yet very sturdy.
The tail isn’t too long but long enough. I wore Arianna napping in my black one (also from SPRS) at the park one day last week, and the tail was the perfect length to have over her head, shielding her from the wind and sunlight. It’s also a great nursing cover.
Happy babywearing!
(Disclosure: this is not a sponsored post. We bought the sling ourselves and nothing was given in return for this post; I simply want to share the love.)

good information, too late! :)
I love wearing Ezra, but I’ve been using a Hotsling. I’m really interested in ring slings now that he’s a little harder to fold and mold into the Hotsling…but the ones I looked at were almost $200. And that’s just TOO much. I love it for church the best. Maybe I can ask for a ring sling for my Birthday!! Thanks for the review.
E- I’m gonna email you. But just FYI, her cotton ones start at $40. Very affordable!
I’m very interested in getting a Sweet Pea RS, but not sure if it makes sense b/c I have a 17 month old, 22 pound toddler. Do you mind if I ask how big Arianna is? What is the longest you are able to carry her in the RS? Thanks!
