The Peanut Shell Adjustable Sling Review and Giveaway!

I couldn't wait to try this sling out and am thrilled with how well I've loved it and how much Mabel has enjoyed being carried around in it!  I love getting things in the mail and quickly ripped open the box and found this inside:
I love the packaging!

omg I love this! Vanilla Bean is my favorite pattern, reminds me of retro Hawaii or something. I like that the sling grows with baby, because a lot of slings out there aren't like that. Being close to baby is so important and this sling will do the trick!

Em said...

That pattern look SO cute and the sling seems like it would be really comfortable. :) Mabel is such a cutie!

dcford said...

I love the sling and that pattern is so pretty! I could still use it for my 8 month old (~21 lbs) and can't wait to use it for baby #2!

MommaBug said...

I love how comfy it looks! and it also looks really safe!

dcford said...

Oops I missed the instructions :p I like that the sling is padded to keep mommy and baby comfortable. I love baby wearing and some carriers just aren't that cozy after awhile! These look soft and comfy. I like the Morning Bloom pattern, so
pretty.

MommaBug said...

I like tea time the best as a pattern = )

MommaBug said...

I love the extra safety strap to it! I am always worried if something were to happen and it got unclipped! ; /

Lindsay said...

I love that it is adjustable so both my husband and I could wear it, and that it can be worn different ways! And, I think I might get it in navy.

kv said...

Love this sling and love your blog!

I love that it grows with baby, my babies tend to stay small, my 15 month old is only 20 lbs so it will fit for a while. I love the Whisper pattern, i am also due with my second baby in August and my huband is deployed (Army) so this would be great to have an extra hand to get stuff done.

Jessica Lynn said...

I would choose Vanilla Bean (but they're all adorable!)
I didn't do any "baby wearing" with my son, but held him in my arms a lot. I look forward to baby wearing with #2 though! :)
I simply like it for the fact that you can wear baby while getting things done :)

I would love to try this sling out with my little one coming in May.

Mrs. Trout said...

I love the Whisper sling... I love that it is both male and female and what a great product... Anything to help with getting more things done that need to get done. :)

Anonymous said...

I love wearing my son! The Whisper pattern is super cute and also very neutral!

Sarah said...

I LOVE the dahlia pattern! I love that it is more comfortable than your standard sling.

Audrey said...

I like the boho chic print! What I like that seems different than other slings is that padded ring around the pouch.

christina said...

I love that it's a one size.. So my husband or mom can wear it as well! I would pick the whisper pattern. It's pretty gender neutral in case we have a boy in the future.

Anonymous said...

How do you decide?!! I think I'd have to narrow it down to Dahlia and Whisper. Thanks for the great giveaway!

I have a few carriers for my daughter already but this looks cool Morgan :). I entered :)

Oops. Forgot to mention-I love that it has such a strong and sturdy buckle. I feel like it would be really reassuring to know that it's in place for good, especially with an itty bitty one! I also like that it would work perfectly for DH who is 6'3"+ and also for me at 5'6".

sara said...

I love that it is machine washable! and the Dahlia pattern is awesome

I like Vanilla Bean, it's a super cute pattern. I need a sling so bad, by the time I wrap my Moby Wrap around myself, my LO is already screaming at the top of his lungs. This sling looks easy, stylish, and functional. I hope I win:). I also love the adjustable buckle.

Courtney said...

I love the tea time pattern and how you can wear it multiple ways!

Laney said...

We are expecting our first baby on September 1st and I'm hoping to find a great sling. Would love to win! delaney underscore carroll at yahoo dot com

Aw that's so exciting! I'm planning on becoming a baby wearing momma and I love this style. I really hope I win :-)

Christina said...

I love that both my husband and I could use the sling and safety is also super important to us so I love that it has the safety buckle and strap :)

Christina said...

I like all the patterns, but I think tea time would work best for my little man :)

Unknown said...

I love the pattern Whisper that you have! So pretty and this looks like it would be comfy instead of hurting your shoulders! (:

Anonymous said...

Every sling I have tried thus far Mckenna has hated (or it was to difficlt to put on) This one looks comfortable for baby M and easy for mommy :)

Jessica Santiago said...

I love that it looks so easy compared to my Ergo. If I won I would choose the color DAHLIA or Whisper. Thanks for this giveaway.

Kristen said...

Mabel looked so cute in the sling and it looked pretty comfy for both of you too! I like the Dahlia and Whisper patterns. =))

Britni said...

I love to wear my little girl and am wanting a new carrier or some kind. Would LOVE to try this one! PS- I love your blog...Sloane is a week older than Mabel so I love seeing how they compare!

Britni said...

I didn't tell you what color- I do love the Whisper! And it looks so cozy and comfortable!

The Dietz Family said...

Juliet {the juliet notes} said...

would love to win this sling! great giveaway!

Juliet {the juliet notes} said...

oops forgot to say i would love the plain black sling. i like these slings because it holds a newborn securely in a cradle position.

CLYNN said...

I love that this provides comfort for both mommy and baby! I also love that it grows and can be used in different ways as your baby grows! I love the Esther pattern the best! It matches the nursery I'm doing for my baby girl due May 18th!!

Unknown said...

If i won i would def choose Esther. Great giveaway. :)

Alex Liz R. said...

I like that one size fits all and the no slip safety strap.
I love the elise pattern.

binzany said...

i love the dahlia and esther patterns i cant wait till my baby girl is out giveaways get me even more excited :)

Anonymous said...

This is the best sling I've seen by far! I've always been worried about the edging on the slings.... it looked so dangerous for the baby. Thank you for this giveaway!

Melissa said...

Such a cute carrier! I am 7wks 5 days pregnant-- would love to win this for my baby! :)

Ali Otwell said...

Would love to try this out for our little one coming in July! I have been looking everywhere for a good carrier, but am unsure of which to get! This would be wonderful to try!

Anonymous said...

I really like the Elise pattern and it kind of goes with the pattern of our carseat for little man.

Jules Wilson said...

It looks so comfortable and I would like the pink couture!!!

Searching For Simplicity said...

I like the whisper pattern the best. One thing I really like is the ability to adjust it. Right after birth I am always larger but soon I drop the weight off. In the past I have had slings that fit to tight at birth but when I sized up it ended up not fitting later on!

Jsymank42 said...

Im all about Happy Baby Happy Momma! This is an awesome giveaway!!!

Allison Hanley said...

I love that the sling seems so easy to put on. I would totally go for th vanilla bean pattern since we're Team Green and don't know what our little peanut is.

Anonymous said...

I love the padded side for security! I love the morning bloom pattern, thanks!

Anonymous said...

I love the patterns and it looks comfy! and YES...it does look easy to put on!

TMorg10 said...

I love that it's adjustable and grows with baby. I would wear my baby boy in the Navy sling.

Shannydew said...

I LOVVVE the Elise pattern and I would love to be able to hold my baby girl as I got things done around the house ;)

Michelle P. said...

I love that my husband would be able to use it too! I have a non-adjustable sling that only I can use, so it would be nice to hand over the sling for some Daddy bonding once in a while. I love the Whisper pattern.

Love the idea of hands free! My baby girl loves to be carried & it makes getting things done around the house hard.I like the vanilla bean print!

I so would love this Sling for my baby that is due in 3 wks and will be helpful with a toddler! I would love the Morning Bloom! Thank you!! :)

I love how comfy it looks. Plus the fact that it has a safety strap.

Taja said...

It looks very comfy and I like that it's machine washable. I would definitely get whisper.

Danielle W said...

I love the whisper print! I would love one for my baby girl due in May! :)

Danielle W said...

I forgot to say what I love about it! :) I love that it would allow me to be more hands free since I will have a newborn and an 18 month old!

Jen Dixon said...

I love the fact that the sling is machine washable! My favorite pattern is dahlia!

Al said...

I think I would get the whisper pattern you have and the fully adjustable strap would be ideal for me (petite) and my husband (not).

Rachel said...

This sling looks so awesome! I really like the whisper pattern or the vanilla bean! Thanks for the chance to win! :)

jenball44 said...

That is the cutest sling I've seen in awhile. Thanks for sharing!

Tanya - The Jaunty Form said...

The sling I purchased is cute and not that comfy. This one looks comfy and cushiony! ...And Mabel is very cute!!!

I would love to win this sling ! The patterns are beautiful!

Anne Marie said...

I like the Whisper print best and it's great that the sling has such comfortable padding!

donathankb said...

i really like this product because it looks like you can just sit on the couch and be comfortable and hands free and also walk around and get house work done. I absolutly need this product right now my 3 month old wont let me put her down! thanks for doing the giveaway I hope I win.

I love this sling. It looks perfect for summer weather. I appreciate the saftey clasp and the fact that it doesn't look too complicated. I have an Ergo and used it a ton with my daughter however our second baby is due in June and I would like a more summery pattern than just my plain black Ergo. I love the whisper pattern. It looks nice and nuetral.

Ashley said...

I love the idea of the sling!!! It is great that it is a comfortable way for you and your baby to keep close, even when there are other things to be done around the house. I'm expecting baby #3 in October and I have a toddler who turned 3 yesterday and a 20-month-old, so babywearing is going to be a necessity!! I love the Dahlia pattern -- nice and girly!

Sabrina said...

I love that this sling has such a broad weight range. I have another sling, but I can't start using it until the baby weighs 14 lbs. I need one now, so I can be hands free to take care of my two year old. I like the whisper pattern.

hannasmith0053 said...

I really like the padding on this sling. I really like the whisper print too. I think it's so much pretty.

Anonymous said...

Love the vanilla bean pattern and also like how it is padded and looks safe!

Meagen said...

I would get the whisper print. Its very pretty plus its not too girly for my boys. I love that its one size fits all. I am a little bigger than I'd like to be and knowing this will work no matter the size is great. Plus I love baby wearing :)

stacee33 said...

would love to try this!! baby is due in september :)

Faith Lewis said...

jennyhopetobe said...

Love this sling i hope to get my bfp soon and be able to use it. Love ur blog and channel

jennyhopetobe said...

Sorry for the second post but im really new at this and i can't find the entry form please help!!!!!!!! I really want to enter

Jessica said...

this looks very comfortable. hope my baby will like it when he's here in less than 2 months

Anonymous said...

I love the tea time print! I would love this sling since it looks like it would keep my soon to be baby out of my 2 1/2 year olds reach!

Sarah said...

I would choose the whisper print (not too girly so it could be used for a boy). I would say that it accommodating a 26 lb baby is one of the best features & that it can be worn a variety of ways. I'd love to have one to use on my daughter now (12 months, 19 lbs) and when our next baby comes along it would be a great item to have with a couple of toddlers running around :-)

This sling looks like it would be nice and comfortable for mom and baby. My son is 2 so he's too big for this but would love to use this for baby #2 whenever that might be. =0) I love the Mudd Pie or plain black Design.

BWN said...

I love the padding for both mom and baby, and I love the prints! Mudd Pie is my favorite!

Unknown said...

I like that it has a no-slip safety strap, and I'd like a black one.

Chasing Olive In Wonderland said...

I love that it's one size! With my first, I had a sized sling. Right after delivery I was one size and three months later, I ended up buying the same sling in a smaller size. I adore the Whisper pattern - it's so chic!

Alesha said...

This does look very well made. I love the patterns. I would love to win it.

Julie said...

I love all the patterns and have been looking for a sling to purchase, it would be awesome to win this:)

Megan said...

This sling is adorable! I really love Wisper like what you have or Morning Bloom - very chic. We are currently TTC our newest addition & my Sister in law is pregnant - this would make a perfect gift for either of us ;-)

NVoytilla said...

This looks so much easier to use than the baby carriers I have! Maybe I could even do a load of laundry or load the dishwasher with my 7 week old! I love the Whisper pattern!

Unknown said...

I like the no-slip safety strap, because odds are I will need it and if I won, I would choose the DAHLIA pattern

Anonymous said...

I love the BOHO CHIC pattern! I am just excited to wear a sling and 'baby-wear' in general when I have a baby. :)

Katy said...
