How To Make Crystal Beaded Jewelry Dazzle For Years

By Jerri Perry


Various crystal beaded jewelry pieces look best when they are shiny. In such condition, they can make any woman a standout no matter the attire or occasion. Properly taking good care of these accessories is important.

These items are usually handed out to their buyers in padded boxes or velvet pouches. It's a good idea to keep them as they make for excellent storage spaces when women are not using their sparkling fashion accessories. Investing in high quality jewelry organizers is also recommendable to prevent clutter in the bedroom. The best ones to get are those that come with multiple compartments, each of them lined with a soft material to prevent the items from getting scratched.

Whether stored in an organizer or in separate containers, these fashion accessories should not be placed near anything that generates heat. Even though crystals look fantastic when hit by light, leaving them under the sweltering sun for hours is a bad idea. Make your prized possession last for years by storing them in a place where it is cool and dry.

Regularly wiping the surface with a soft and lint-free polishing cloth removes anything on the surface that can rob the crystals of their gleam. The best time to do this routine is right after wearing them and just before putting them back in their designated storage spaces. Items with silver parts will greatly benefit from the regular use of an anti-tarnish cloth.

It's possible to ward off unnecessary tarnishing of the silver components of your accessories by placing them in airtight containers such as resealable plastic pouches. For added protection, you may also add silica gel packs or anti-tarnish paper inside. Don't be tempted to dip these items in silver cleaning solutions available commercially. When your fashion accessories are really soiled, it's a better idea to dunk them in a mixture of mild detergent and water. Gently scrub problem areas with a toothbrush with soft bristles. Dry them up right away and thoroughly before you put them back in storage.

Women should wear these sparkling accessories only after they have applied their everyday cosmetics such as perfume, deodorant, hairspray, lotion and others. Much of the ingredients they contain may leave a coating on the crystals' surface, keeping them from glimmering. Harsh chemicals that get into contact with plated metal parts may also cause damage.

It's recommendable for women to dress up first before wearing their accessories. Otherwise, the crystals may only end up permanently scratched by some of the metal parts of clothes like buttons and zippers. When they get back home, doing the complete opposite has to be done. These sparkling items should be removed first, followed by the clothes.

Putting on crystal beaded jewelry instantly makes women look and feel fabulous. However, there are instances when they should not be worn for their longevity. Cleaning the home and working out are just some of them. Taking a shower also calls for their removal. Their owners should take them off when dipping in the swimming pool or ocean.
