Glass Dharma Review & Giveaway


 A great table setting that you may be forgetting is Glass Dharma glass drinking straws. Drinkware accessaries with stylish decorative dots and better yet they are reusable which means a better product for the environment. Glass straws are actually a better choice than plastic straws leaking toxins. Glass Dharma the original glass straw, making drinks more enticing to drink with sophisticated appeal.

Please note that cleaning brushes do not automatically “come with” all Glass Straw purchases. You will certain want to make sure you have some for proper cleaning.
We have tried them with Yogurt Smoothies and home made milkshakes. They don't seem very different drinking from, if the thought of weirdness worries you. The boys thought they were cool with the dots. I supervised the use with the children. These straws are strong and durable but, I know the baby is a biter and may bite on the straw. He will only use when them while I'm watching. I also prefer they should remain seated for safety concerns.


I checked out Glass Dharma advice on this and agree that straws should be checked for chips and breakage before use. In the event that they should break check out GlassDharma Lifetime Guarantee Against Breakage
Broken straw sent to GlassDharma manufacturing facility for repair or replacement. 
Keep up with all the buzz from the Glass Dharma Blog @ http://glassdharma.blogspot.com/
