Making Crystal Beaded Jewelry Pieces Sparkle For A Very Long Time

By Essie Osborn


No matter the attire or occasion, it's for sure that crystals can make you literally shine. Fashion accessories with these glimmering ornaments should be treated with much love if you want them to make you look pretty and dazzling for years. Fortunately, you are not going to have a hard time keeping your different crystal beaded jewelry pieces in superb condition.

Especially if you have already amassed several pieces of these personal ornaments, it's recommendable for you to purchase an organizer with multiple partitions. Keeping your items in their separate storage spaces saves their gleaming facets from ending up scratched or chipped. Try to go for an organizer whose partitions are lined with felt or any other soft material.

In case you feel that you don't have enough fashion accessories yet to purchase a dedicated organizer for them, you may simply stash them in the boxes that they came in when you ordered them. You may also store them in separate pouches out of velvet or cotton. Using small resealable plastic bags is recommendable especially if the items have silver parts prone to tarnishing.

Remember not to leave these precious items under the scorching sun or adjacent to appliances that give off heat. Look for a dry and cool area inside your room because that's the best spot for them. Too much moisture in the air is bad for the metal parts, most especially silver ones. To keep unnecessary tarnishing at bay, stash a bag or two of silica gel in the storage area.

Remember to apply your daily cosmetics first before putting on your fashion accessories adorned with crystals. They can easily end up dull when they are touched by those harsh chemicals in perfume, lotion, deodorant, hairspray and others. Following this very simple rule as you are getting ready for the office or a date can help prolong the life of your accessories.

Definitely, you should remove your fashion accessories before you go to sleep. It's also important that you put them back in their proper storage spaces when doing some home cleaning to keep them from being harmed by strong chemicals found in most household cleaners. Do not take a shower or bath with these glimmering personal ornaments. Certainly, they should be removed when swimming.

Prior to putting them back to their designated storage areas when the day is over, make it a habit to wipe off the surface with a soft piece of cloth to eliminate oils and dirt. Never attempt to hasten the process by using alcohol, glass cleaner or any other type of solvent. Instead of making those crystals shine brighter, these chemicals may only leave them ruined.

If you feel that a simple wiping won't be enough because there are lots of grease or stains on the surface, it's a good idea to use baby wipes on them. If they are perfectly fine to be used on the sensitive skin of babies, it's for sure that they are suited for cleaning your prized possessions. Wipe your accessories with tissue paper afterwards to remove the remaining solution.
