Storing Molly Lu Jewelry
Keep your jewelry sparkly and tarnish-free. The best way to store any of your jewelry is in an airtight container, like a plastic resealable baggie. This is especially important if you live in a humid environment. Store them away from intense heat and light. 
 
It helps if you have some silver-tarnish cloth, like "Pacific Cloth," to put inside the baggies or container. This can be purchased online, or ask Molly Lu.
 
You can also put one of those "do not eat" packets (aka Silica Gel) in your jewelry box to soak up any moisture in the air. You can find these in most shoe boxes or in bulk at a craft store, like "Michaels." 
 
If your silver starts to tarnish, polishing it with a cloth, like "Sunshine Cloth," to restore its shine. These can also be purchased online or contact Molly Lu.
 
That's about it, Molly Lu jewelry is durable, it has to be to keep up with Molly's adventurous lifestyle. So take it with you and love it!
Cleaning Molly Lu Jewelry
Do not put your Molly Lu jewelry in your ultrasonic jewelry cleaner or steam cleaner! Most of the gemstones she uses in her pieces are low on the Mohs scale of hardness, which in common terms means they are too delicate for chemicals.
 
If the jewelry loses its luster then...
Rub gems with a smooth, soft cloth to remove fingerprints and keep them shiny.
For a deeper cleaning, use warm soapy water (always test a stone first before submerging an entire piece). Then thoroughly dry with a soft towel. Make sure all moisture has evaporated between beads and in bead-hole before storing.
 
Put it on last! Keep grime from building up by putting your jewelry on last, never before using hairspray or other products and applying makeup.
 
 Cheers! Thanks for visiting.
