Untangling jewellery chains

Use sewing pins to untangle knots in silver and gold chains.  They are smaller than your fingers and the job is so much easier

Make your jewellery sparkle

To make your jewellery sparkle, polish with toothpaste or with a paste of baking soda and water. Use a soft toothbrush to apply the paste.

Removing tight rings

If a ring on your finger becomes too tight, try one of the following to remove it:

1. Wash your hands in hot water then rub the finger with soap and work the ring along the finger until it comes off.
2. Rub  olive oil or an oily handcream along the finger and move the ring along past the knuckle
3. Spray the ring with a commercial window cleaner and move it along the finger (Make sure there is no raw skin as these cleaners contain alcohol and will sting)
