This One Won't Give You a Lisp




















Oh those awkward days of the orthodontia: Repeatedly lisping while reading your essay to the class, yanking watermelon Bubble Yum from your wires, leaving a trail of bracket bands wherever you go. Yeah. Been there, done that - for two and a half years. Thankfully, the eclectic "Retainer Necklace" (above) by Kiel Mead doesn't cause overactive salivation and you don't have to attempt to conceal it with a "Mona Lisa smile" on picture day. I call it "An ode to your awkward stage." I also found the "Forget Me Nots," "Freck Specs," "Gum" and "Key Rings" (below, clockwise) quirkily adorable.
