Teal Teardrop Pendant Necklaces

Polymer clay jewelry is beautiful and durable, but proper care is essential to keep it looking its best. Here's a summary of key care tips for your polymer clay pendants:

Cleaning
• Gently wipe away dirt or smudges with a soft, damp cloth or baby wipe.
• For tougher stains, you can use a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol, but only on unpainted and unvarnished clay.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the clay and finishes.
• If your pendant has intricate details, you can use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) for gentle cleaning, according to Rockrose Clay Co..

Storage
• Store pendants in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration.
• Keep pendants in separate compartments or a jewelry box to avoid scratches from harder materials.

Handling and Avoiding Damage
• Handle pendants gently and avoid excessive bending or rough activities.
• Protect pendants from chemicals like perfumes and lotions, as well as prolonged moisture exposure.
• Keep pendants away from extreme temperatures, which can affect their structure.
• Direct sunlight can cause some polymer clay colors to fade over time.

Sealed or Glazed Pendants
• Coatings may wear off over time and can be reapplied. Avoid solvents and excessive moisture to prolong their life.

Following these guidelines helps keep your polymer clay pendants looking beautiful.
