For The Summer Necklace

Paper bead jewelry, while beautiful and unique, requires gentle care to maintain its longevity and vibrant appearance. 

1. Handling and Wearing:
• Remove before water exposure: Paper beads are often water-resistant but not completely waterproof. Take off paper bead jewelry before showering, swimming, or any activity where it might get soaked to prevent damage or warping.
• Avoid contact with chemicals: Apply lotions, perfumes, and hairsprays before putting on your jewelry to prevent chemical residue from accumulating on the beads and causing discoloration or dullness.
• Handle gently: Fasten and unfasten clasps carefully to avoid straining the threading material or causing breakage. 

2. Cleaning:
• Wipe paper bead jewelry with a soft, dry cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, gently wipe the beads with a soft, damp cloth and allow them to air dry completely before storing. Avoid soaking the jewelry in water. 

3. Storage:
• Store jewelry in a dry place away from humidity and direct sunlight. Store each piece separately to prevent scratching or tangling. 

4. Longevity and Maintenance:
• Paper beads are often varnished for durability and water resistance. For repairs, consider a professional jeweler or the place of purchase. 

Proper care can help your paper bead jewelry maintain its beauty for years.
