We try to ship orders the same or next day. During the holidays and other busy seasons, fulfillment may take longer than usual. Our warehouse uses USPS and FedEx, and standard First Class shipping times apply. All orders over $70 qualify for free, USPS First Class shipping in the US. Currently, USPS shipping times are a little slower than usual. Also, we have noticed inconsistencies in their tracking. In regards to the arrival date of your order, the most reliable date is the one initially provided to you on your shipping confirmation. Once a product is shipped from our warehouse, we do not have any control over the carrier.

Yes! We ship worldwide. However, due to current shipping inconsistencies, we are not offering any free shipping options for international orders. Also, please note that some countries add additional fees for customs. We are not privy to these fees and have no way to control them. These additional fees are not paid to Chews Life, but to your country's government.

In order to keep shipping FREE on all orders over $40, we only ship to one address per order at this time. Unfortunately, the warehouse is very busy and cannot accommodate requests for personal notes or price removal from the packing slip at this time. When you place your order, there is a spot in the checkout for notes that you can write a message for the warehouse, but we cannot guarantee that they will be able to accommodate your request.  

We are proud to use a local, family-owned fulfillment company in our hometown of Grand Rapids, Michigan for our warehousing and shipping.  

Although we are always improving our processes and systems, mistakes do happen! We will try making any shipping errors right, so please contact us at hello@chewslife.com with your order number and we will work towards a solution with you!  

We use food-grade, BPA-free, formaldehyde free, lead free and phthalates free silicone beads, strung on organic cotton cord.  Our beads are tested for impurities, and our rosaries are safety-tested in a third-party lab.  

Safety is our top priority at Chews Life. Our Chews Life products are made with a safety snap clasps that have a safe release when tugged. Our rosaries have been third-party safety-tested, and are CPSIA-certified. However, please note that while these products are made to be safe and durable, they should only be used under adult supervision.  

We recommend a damp microfiber cloth for cleanups with a non-abrasive soap and hanging to dry! When necessary you may use a natural alcohol based hand sanitizer. We do not recommend putting them in the dishwasher, to prevent excessive wear on the organic cotton cord. Avoid prolonged exposure to water so as not to wear down the organic cotton cord. Boiling it will melt all the wax on the cord and submerging the rosary or other silicone bead item gets the cord soaked through inside the beads. The cord can't dry properly because our beads are close together to not have cord exposed which leads to cord failure later.  

Maybe! We are able to create new medals approximately once per year.  When we do, we will be polling our fans to see which medals are most wanted! Stay tuned--we're always looking at expanding our medal collection!  

A. Our Baby/Little Kid size is designed for the littler ones, with four beads and a small accent bead per side and an inner circumference of approximately 5.25". It is designed for ages up to 6 approximately. 

Our Big Kid/Adult Small size now has five beads plus a small accent bead on each side of the Medal, with an inner circumference of approximately 6". It offers a close fit on a 6" wrist, and is designed for ages 7 and up approximately.

Our full-size silicone rosary is approximately 50cm long and approximate circumference of 65cm.

Our silicone decade is approximately 15cm long and approximate circumference of 18cm.

Our medals and crosses are custom made for Chews Life. We do not give out our manufacturer/distribution information. You may see that the crosses and some of the medals are actually stamped with our company name, because of this, we also do not sell the components separately. We are proud of our strict safety standards and we want to make sure that every product that carries our company name is hand-made by one of our artisans. If you choose to shop with us for the little ones in your life, you can be assured that all of our products are made with high-quality components. They all carry a lifetime repair or replacement guarantee -- that's how much we believe in them!  

We don't think so, and here's why. For our little ones, taste is their strongest sense, so putting things in their mouth is the best way for them to learn about something. It’s no accident that they put EVERYTHING in their mouths. So by creating a Rosary that is meant to be experienced this way, we can begin to teach our little ones about the faith! They also will get physical comfort in using this for teething pain and will grow up associating the rosary with comfort. And as they get older, they will certainly grow out of chewing on it, but will continue loving it just as much! Also, we're 100% certain that the baby Jesus chewed on Our Lady’s fingers, hair, mantle... and if she held your little one, she would delight in them doing the same. :)   

We use semi-precious gemstones strung on stainless steel memory wire (for bracelets) or flexible wire (for rosaries and decades).

Our replacement crucifix and miraculous medal charms are zinc alloy with a silver oxidized finish, and contain no nickel. 

Yes! The memory wire is completely adjustable and maintains its shape however you mold it. We guarantee you’ll find a comfortable fit, regardless of your wrist size.  To stretch the wire, just pull the ends apart from each other; to make the coil smaller, simply twist the ends in opposite directions to tighten the coil.

Pro tip: Be sure to always clip your charm in the loop on the end of the bracelet, or after the first Pater bead. If clipped to the end on the small spacer bead, it can easily slide off during wear!
