Ok Ladies,
So now we begin the cleaning process of our Costume Jewelry. First, we begin by finding a well-lit area to work in and gather all your supplies that were metioned in one ofour previous posting. We then pour a small amount of cleaning solution into a small dish. Dip the soft bristled brush in to the cleaning solution and carefully scrub away any dirt from the jewelry. Do not soak the piece in the solution as it can weaken the adhesives and bonds. Carefully scrub the folds and bends in the pieces as dirt often gets trapped there. I suggest you use a wooden toothpick to remove any residue that cannot be reached with the brush. Next rinse carefully with clean water. Lastly is the drying method. Dry quickly and thoroughly. You may want to lay the piece on a soft cloth and dry it with the hairdryer on a cool air setting.
Return your piece to its storage in a dry place separate from other jewelry
