How To Keep Vintage Rhinestone Bracelets From Losing Their Beauty

By Elsa Noel


Accessorizing makes your clothes look more interesting. It also helps bring attention to your unique style and personality. It is certainly a great idea to maintain the unmistakable beauty of your vintage rhinestone bracelets so that you can shine whenever you are wearing them. Fortunately for you, keeping them sparkling should not take up much of your precious time and energy.

Your goal is to ensure that those rhinestones are always sparkling. It is also important to keep the metal parts gleaming. There is no use in putting a bracelet around your wrist if it's not as eye-catching as it should be. Especially because the personal ornament is worn just above your hand which you use for a lot of things, the accessory should always stay looking fabulous.

Correct storage is vital to prevent these lovely items from ending up damaged most especially when you are not wearing them. Style conscious women like you should purchase an excellent jewelry organizer. The right one to invest in is something that features several compartments. Every section has to be lined with a soft material such as felt to save any item from scratches.

It is also a good idea to stash each bracelet in the box that it came with when you purchased it. Refrain from discarding the original packaging. This is especially true if one day you are planning on selling the bracelet as the box adds to the value. Whenever you are traveling, place every item in its own pouch out of velvet or any other soft cloth for its utmost protection.

These vintage personal ornaments have a few enemies and one of them is water. It's due to the fact that water can actually damage the foil placed at the back of rhinestones, something that allows them to beautifully sparkle just like those costly precious stones. Do not dip your accessories in water for cleaning purposes or stash them in an area where it's hot and moist.

Eventually, you will have to clean the individual rhinestones to ensure that they are just as dazzling as the day that you bought the bracelet. The best way to do this is to polish the pieces with a soft cloth dampened a little with glass cleaner. Do not use abrasive cleaners on any of your jewelries. As earlier said, it is not really a good idea to soak the item in water to bring back its beauty.

A polishing cloth may be used to buff the metal parts. Opting for this cheap and readily available cleaning solution is perhaps the fastest and safest way for you to bring back the lost appeal of your fashion accessories. When stubborn stain is present, you may use a soft toothbrush dampened with water. Make sure that you completely dry the item just before you stash it in the organizer.

Save those gleaming rhinestones from being marred by abrasive chemicals. Put them on only after you are done applying lotion, perfume, hairspray and other cosmetic products. When the day is over, always remove these sparkling fashion accessories first. Doing so saves them from bumping against zippers, metal buttons and others that can leave your bracelets scratched.
