Jewellery Care

Welcome to our guide on how to care for your polymer clay jewellery! Proper care ensures that your pieces stay beautiful and last a long time. Polymer clay jewelry is known for its versatility, vibrant colors, but it does require some special attention to keep it looking its best. Follow these simple tips to keep your polymer clay jewellery looking as good as new:

✿Handle with Care:

• Polymer clay jewelry can be delicate, so handle it gently to avoid any accidental breakage or damage.
• When putting on or taking off your jewelry, avoid pulling or tugging on it forcefully, especially with earrings and necklaces.

✿Keep Away from Chemicals:

• Avoid exposing your polymer clay jewelry to harsh chemicals such as perfume, hairspray, or cleaning products.
• Remove your jewelry before swimming, bathing, or engaging in activities that involve contact with chemicals to prevent any potential damage or discoloration.

✿Store Properly:

• Store your polymer clay jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to reduce oxidization on metal findings.
• Avoid storing your jewelry in airtight containers or plastic bags, as this can cause sweating and potentially damage the clay.
• To prevent tangling, store necklaces and bracelets separately, ideally hanging them or laying them flat.

✿Clean Gently:

• To clean your polymer clay jewelry, use a soft, damp cloth or cotton swab to gently wipe away any dirt or residue.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive scrubbing, as this can damage the surface of the clay or any protective coatings.
• Metal findings may discolor overtime due to humidity and oxidization. If so, kindly use Connoisseurs Jewellery Wipes to remove tarnish.

✿Handle with Clean Hands:

• Before handling your polymer clay jewelry, make sure your hands are clean and free of any lotions, oils, or other substances.
• Oils and residues from your hands can transfer onto the clay, potentially causing it to become sticky or discolored over time.

✿Avoid Extreme Temperatures:

• Polymer clay can become soft or brittle when exposed to extreme temperatures, so avoid leaving your jewelry in hot cars or direct sunlight for extended periods.
• Similarly, extreme cold temperatures can cause the clay to become brittle, so take care when wearing your jewelry in cold climates.

By following these simple care tips, you can ensure that your polymer clay jewelry remains beautiful and wearable for years to come. If you have any specific questions or concerns about caring for your jewelry, feel free to contact us at trulycaelia@gmail.com for personalized advice.
