5 jewelry hacks that will make your life easy
Are you someone who often finds yourself stuck with your tangled necklace or sobbing over your favorite jewelry losing its shine? Every jewelry lover can totally relate to this. However, you can easily solve these problems with a few jewelry hacks. These tricks will take care of your jewelry and ensure safe storage. Here are five jewelry hacks.
Use baby powder to untangle chains
Instead of wrestling with your knotted neckpiece, use this easy and effective baby powder hack to untangle them easily. Place knotted chain on a clean plate and sprinkle some baby powder to loosen the knots and make the chain slippery. Then use a straight pin to untangle the chain. Then wash the chain with lukewarm water and mild soap and leave it to dry.
Paper clip can make fastening a bracelet easier
Putting on a wrist bracelet all by yourself is hard. Every time you try to put on the clasp, the other side slips off. To make the process easier, take a paper clip and uncoil it. Now thread the paper clip through the bracelet loop, bring the other side up and fasten the clasp while holding the clip with the same hand.
Clear nail polish can prevent your jewelry from tarnishing
Costume jewelry is prone to tarnishing. Tarnishing occurs when your jewelry gets exposed to external elements like dust, dirt, water, and chemicals. So, remember to coat your jewelry and other accessories with transparent nail paint and let them dry to prevent discoloration. It prevents your jewelry from losing its shine and texture and adds a protective layer to the metal coating of the jewelry.
Kitchen ingredients to clean gold and silver jewelry
Place silver jewelry on tin foil inside a ceramic bowl. Fill the bowl with a mixture of white vinegar, salt, and baking powder. Let the jewelry stay for five minutes and then take them out. To clean gold jewelry, place them in a bowl filled with a mixture of club soda and mild detergent for 10-20 minutes. Scrub away the leftovers and pat dry.
Use straw to keep long hair away from necklace clasp
If you have long hair, then we are sure you have faced the problem of your hair getting knotted around the necklace clasp at the end of the day. This can lead to hair loss as well. So, cut a small piece of straw and slide it through the chain. Fasten the clasp and bring back the straw over the latch to prevent tangles.
