Clean your pearl jewelry by wiping

Clean your pearl jewelry by wiping them with a soft wet cloth after every use. Store them in a breathable bag away from jewelry which may scratch their surface. They should be stored at room temperature.

Do you have a obsession for pearls? Do you buy pearl jewelry, and purchase strands and loose pearls to make your own? If you try to utilize pearls in your life, from including them in your sewing and craft projects to learning how to string and knot your own creations, then you have pearl passion!

And you are not alone. There are so many people out there who are pearl lovers.

Most people don't realize how important it is to string pearls correctly, but if you are a pearl enthusiast then you know how the knots in the line keeps the pearls from rubbing together. Knotting also eliminates the danger that all of your pearls will go sliding of the string if it were to break!

If you really have a passion for pearls you probably have an extensive collection. Perhaps you have items you don't wear anymore; you've grown tired of the style, or the color no longer matches anything you own.

In this case, why not recycle your pearls? Take your jewelry apart, and make something brand-new. A long strand necklace can be turned into a double row bracelet and a pair of chandelier earrings, or a bracelet can be combined with some extra pearls to create a choker.

Watch for specials on pearl strands and stock up on peanut, potato, baroque, rice and seed pearls. Vary the colors, and remember you can mix and match shades and sizes later.

Consider using inexpensive pearls to decorate your craft projects. Edge a lampshade with irregular pearls, or arrange a grouping in the corner of a picture frame. Paperweights are a great way to utilize a mish mash of cheap pearls left over from other projects; simply find a rock and use a hot glue gun to attach the pearls.
