Everyone loves getting new jewelry, whether you receive it as a gift or you buy it for yourself. Of course, the last thing you want to do is let your lovely new ring or necklace get ruined by not looking after it properly. Luckily, the

re are various simple hacks, tips and tricks you can use to maintain your jewelry and keep it looking good as new. By keeping it properly stored and giving it a nice clean every once in a while you can enjoy your jewelry for many years to come.

Storing Your Jewelry
 
While there are ways to fix broken earrings and other jewelry, you want to try and take preventative measures to avoid letting your favorite pieces break in the first place. The first step is to make sure you have the right place to store your jewelry. 
 
This will not only help to stop you from losing your precious jewelry, but it will also help to prevent damage. Whether it’s a priceless family heirloom, an inexpensive ring, or your favorite new necklace from Jweel, it all deserves to be stored in a cool, dry place.
 
Try to keep items separately, to avoid scratching, tangling or chipping. While you can easily get a knot out of a chain, it’s a bit trickier to fix a chip. Even diamonds can chip and the last thing you want is to ruin your expensive jewelry, so look out for a box that allows you to store your pieces in individual spaces. 

Don’t Forget a Travel Case
 
It’s easy to stop your jewelry from getting ruined at home; it’s when you are on the go that you really need to be careful. If you are going travelling, don’t just dump your jewelry in your suitcase. Be sure to buy a travel case or pouch that will keep your stuff safe. 
 
There are various makes that have individual compartments designed to store everything from rings, to necklaces and bracelets. A case is a little sturdier than a soft roll, however, it does take up a little more space. If you are travelling with expensive pieces, we recommend opting for a higher level of protection.

Clean Your Jewelry
 
Since all jewelry is unique, it’s sometimes best to look up the best cleaning method for your particular piece. However, there are some general cleaning tips we can recommend. 
 
You can clean most jewelry with a little bit of soapy warm water and a soft, non-metallic brush. A simply DIY hack is to simply use a soft bristle toothbrush, just be sure that you don’t use that toothbrush to clean anything else, as you do not want to end up transferring harmful chemicals onto your jewelry.
