Handcrafted jewelry MUST be handled with love. Here are some tips to help you care for your handcrafted designs:

• Clean your items with mild soap and hot water and polish with soft cloth. 
• Do not use jewelry cleaning solutions or ultrasonic machines.
• Due to the more delicate nature of handmade items, remove your jewelry before sleeping, showering, exercising or swimming.
• Don’t allow jewelry to come in contact with perfume, sunscreen, skin care, shampoo or chemicals to avoid problems with gemstones or metals.
• Handle with care as these are custom made and often include gemstones and vintage components.
