The baby-teeth keepsake box that's dividing opinion
Creepy or cute: what do you reckon?
How do you fancy a baby-face-shaped wooden box with special little holes for storing your child's teeth in? And their hair. AND their umbilical cord.
Lots of us hang on to baby keepsakes – from that teeny hospital wristband to those first shoes or even a favourite blanket or first teddy.
But a full set of baby teeth is definitely not on everyone's must-keep-as-a-memento list.
Your baby's precious first tooth is coming through! Here’s our guide with all you need to know about brushing baby teeth with confidence
So we're fascinated to see this keepsake box doing the rounds on social media – with its labelled compartments for each individual baby tooth.
And it even has spaces to slot in your baby's umbilical cord and lanugo (that's the fine, downy, in-the-womb hair many babies still have some of when they're born).
We spotted it on Facebook page Spend with pennies and we have to say the reaction there has been a tad divided.
"Where was this 17 years ago? I have 40 random teeth that belong to 4 kids," says one fan.
But not everyone was so excited.
"This screams creepy," says another. "If my mum pulled this out and gave it to me when I was older... I would seriously have to think about what else she kept. A toenail box? ? ? ? "
And here at MFM HQ we're pretty divided, too: some of us find it a bit odd but others think it's pretty sweet as baby memento boxes go.
What do you think?
