♥♥DIY: How to keep your Costume Jewelry from Tarnishing♥♥ 

9 years later and we have Temu and all that costume jewelry for SO cheap! Thank you so much for this detailed and easy to understand tut ♥

Now this is how you do a how-to video! No music to distract, clear instructions. You planned it too and had everything you needed. On top of all that, you answered all my questions. Great job!

I create custom beaded charm bracelets and rosary necklaces. This tip is a life saver. I spray all of my units before shipping them out. Thank you!!

Your earthly purpose was to teach. I have been looking for months for a video to recover some costumed jewelry. Thank you for informing me and sharing with everyone. Ase’

Great job on this video!!! Instructive, soothing voice, not noisy background and got right into it without excessive chatter. 👌🏽

You have such a relaxing voice! Nice video.

Thank you so much for sharing! I find lots of nice pieces at my local beauty supply store. I keep them in tightly sealed plastic bags but still get some tarnishing after a while. Will def use this tip!!!

My gosh, your voice makes me so relaxed!

Thank you for this video. So many other posts talk about expensive processes and expensive products. And many of them don't work. This is perfect for my silver night lamps. Thank you again.

I do this because I have allergies. Costume jewelry always causes my skin to itch. This prevents it

Great tips about putting tape over the stones and not over-doing it with the spray! I use Krylon Crystal Clear and like to let it dry before turning my pieces over and spraying the other side. What I have noticed, though, is that the spray slightly dulls the finish on your jewelry, so if you have a super shiny piece, just spray it once and see if you like it. I know some people like to spray each side 4 times, which may be overkill. Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks :0)

This is a great idea. I was using clear nail polish; much more time consuming, more expensive and quite a mess when looking at the jewelry piece while tipping the nail polish as it pours out on everything. Thank you and you do have a lovely voice.

Thank you. This is going to really help costume jewelry makers! Really helpful. You made my day.

Love this idea better than the clear fingernail polish. 👍👍👍

I finally was able to get the sound to work. This is amazing! I have spent so much money over the years on great costume jewelry only to have it tarnish after just a few wearings. I thought I had acid in my skin! I am very excited to try this out - I am very excited about this. Thanks so much for sharing. You are the jewelry Goddess :)

Thanks Robin, I purchased the spray a few months ago wasn't sure how to go about applying, but this video was very helpful to me. Thanks for sharing"!!

Your jewelry is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you for doing this. I think this is the best video that shows how to protect fashion jewelry.

how long does the reduced tarnishing last?

JUST WANT TO REALLY THANK YOU FOR THIS VID. SO VERY HELPFUL.

How long does it last before you have to fix it again?

I know this is WAY after the fact (6+yrs) & repetitive, but this video is exceptional! You've got a voice like butter (butter makes everything better! 💜), your speech is not rushed, it's very clear & holds your attention for the entire video. That seems to be extremely rare now. I bet you're a great public speaker too😊. Like another person said, you actually put thought into your video, planning it out before starting, which allows you to maintain a calming but purposeful lesson. You should really think about teaching people how to make videos, prep work, what/ how you'll say things, etc. You are short & sweet & to the point with the info; you don't hem & haw over yourself & ramble on & on about Lord knows what. You've also done a great job of having NO distractions... for you & for the viewer. I could listen to you ALL DAY LONG! I don't really care what it's about either. VERY SOOTHING VOICE...I JUST LOVE IT! ❤🤍💙

lovekisses99 I went to wal-mart tonight and purchased some of polyurethane and I have sprayed my costume jewelry and I am excited and cannot wait to see how this goes. I also used your masking tape method on the jewelry that has stones in them and the stones are fine the tape really protected them and they arent clouded, so thanks a billion for this insite that you have provided me because I have tons of costume jewelry and I never feel like I got my money's worth because it starts to fade, but thanks again for this method and this brilliant idea!

Thank you! Looks like I found a mutual jewelry addict! Lol. I will give this a try for sure. My body is very acidic and tarnishes jewelry very FAST. acidic isn't all bad, cancer hates an acidic environment so maybe it's helping me in a small way. I'm also gonna try coating some jewelry pieces with resin and see how that does, if it works it will last even longer! I don't have much costume jewelry because of the acidity issue but I have a few pieces I just love so I hope 1 or both of these work! Again thank you!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

Love you voice very calming.

great tip for sure..thanks for sharing..just wondering out of curiousity sake would these pieces that have been sprayed have to be touched/sprayed again in a couple of months or so? or would they be alright for awhile?

Thank you for your informative video! Well explained, detailed and to the point. Amazing. Thank you

Thank you for sharing this video cause your right costume jewelry prices have gone up and I want my stuff to last. So thanks again for making this video....

Lovely soothing voice... Feel chilled out now.. ☺💙

You have a great voice! You should be a narrator. Thanks for the tips, its too bad these jewelry companies don't have the items treated before they are sold!

Thank you for the tutorial. I have beautiful pieces and I will do it to protect them.

Thank you so much for sharing i use clear nail polish which doesn't seem to last long so I'm gonna give this a try! :)

Thank-you so much! I'm thrilled I found this video! You're awesome!

Love your jewelry! Thanks for sharing.

Sounds like a great idea! Have you ever had issues with the chain links sticking together or the joints on the post of hoop earrings?

Thanks Robin I'm definitely going to try this

How often do you need to apply the coating after the first initial spray?

I read majority of comments,not all, but many many comments.were.directed to how long does the initial coating last?, Can you give a double coating?,etc. You did not respond to.any of this type of question.that was asked many.times.

Thanks, Robin. You just saved me a lot of money.

This is a great idea. I never thought to do this. Thanks for sharing.

So helpful thanks a bunch!

Hate to be redundant, but I agree with everyone else. Your voice is so soothing. You should do a podcast; I'd listen to it! Awesome video and great tips 😊

Great tutorial! thank you for this ❤️ but if i may ask, how long does it lasts? 🤔

Awesome video lady!!! You rock. Thanks for sharing.

WOW! I wish I had seen this before a lot of my necklaces from HauteLook tarnished.

Thanks for sharing this helpful tip, its useful for new jewelry for prevention but is there a way to fix nice costume jewelry that has already been tarnish or starting to tarnish?

Thank you so much! Do you use this for earring hooks as well?

Thank you so much for sharing that's awesome girl. I know you know, how much money we have wasted over the years? I'm done with that !!! I need a new idea thank you for that. You're awesome God bless

Does it still work after going in to the water with your jewelry ?

So much easier than nail polish. I do nail polish for metal allergys. My skin blisters. Ill try it Ty💜

Great, how to video! Absolutely helpful! I wish I had watched it years ago. Have a fabulously blessed day in the Lord!😊

You’re voice is so soothing! You should read stories for Headspace or Calm apps. 😀

Great tip! Thank you!!

I, how often should we apply the coating?

Luv ur diy's they are always helpful

Thank You very much for the tip ur videos are great Pretty Lady😘

PERFECT!! I was gonna use resin but this is much faster! Thanks!!!!

Hi how do you do that to rings or necklaces that have a gem/ cubic zerconia? Don’t want to lose the jewel shine

Hi, I have some questions I hope you can answer. Do you have to re-apply the polyurethane on the jewelry? If so, how often? If never needed except once would be better just let me know. Also, what kind of tape do you use? I don't want to use a tape that would damage the parts of the jewelry I don't want to coat. And what kind of paper do you recommend to use to spray the jewelry so that the jewelry won't stick to the paper? I know you mentioned a craft board but I don't have one and don't want to buy one. What do you recommend using that is not expensive and jewelry won't stick? Thanks a million and hope to hear back from you.

What would you do if you wanted to use a jewelry polishing solution ? Would you put it on before or after applying the polyurethane?

Thank you for this. 💕💕💕

Wow thanks!!! I've been buying some real cool rings from Wish and was worried they would turn. I've used clear nail polish and it didn't work great. I'm definitely going to buy the polyurethane. Thank you again.

I'm in LOVE with your gold anklet. Can you tell me where you got it? Is it from the same website as you mentioned? Thanks in advance!! @lovekisses99

Knowledge is power thank you for sharing this video

Thanks so much for sharing.

Thanks! Your video is the best on the subject.

Would you recommend this for jewelry findings such as jump rings, earring hooks, and other gold or silver accents

Great video! Thank you!

Wonderful!

How often do you do this process to keep it from tarnishing?

OMG! I'm so glad you shared this with us! WOW, WOW, WOW! I only wear costume jewelry and clip on earrings. I'm running out tomorrow and picking up a couple of cans! Thank you so much for sharing!

If u get the spray on ur hands nail polish remover will take it off💜

I wish I found this video 8 years ago! Thank you!

Thanks for the tips! New subscriber!

Wonderful voice. Thank you

Does this help with the smell? I have a necklace that I love and for some reason its smelling funny.

hi i just wanna ask, if how long does it take to tarnish again or it doesn’t tarnish at all till now .. or do you spray it again when the thing actions to tarnish ?

Thanks mama for sharing!!!

What if it's already tarnished? What if it already has rust odor? And if these things haven't occured yet.. then can it prevent rust odor? Or skin from turning green ? Can you see the spray at all on the jewelry? Tons of unanswered questions.

Thank you for your information ❤

Thank you for sharing this. I've bought everything you mentioned and I'm looking forward to trying this and extending the life of some pieces that I'm really attached to and wear often. Thanks again!

oh i have a little tiny can of polyuerethane clear... i got it for resin pieces years ago i wonder if i can just dip the necklace chain into it or should i brush it on?

Could I spray this onto a little paint brush and brush it on smaller delicate jewellery?

Is this with any top coat and jewelry with stones/cz diamonds ? Will any top coat cloud it ?

Great video, thank you. Xx

Thank you , great tutorial. What happened if stones get sprayed accidentally.

Thank you, not sure if using USPS boxes is a good idea though

is this acrylic? and did you use high gloss or saturn finish?

How often does it need to be re applied?

Great idea, love it, thank you very much.

Can you use this on sterling silver? Thank you for your video ❤

hi! wanna know if it does get stiff on necklace, i have a snake and wheat chain style. thaanks!

Hey where did you get the nail bracelet from? Thanks

Hi once u spray this how much longer can the jewelry last.

love your nails

Can you do this with gold plated Jewelry?

Awesome!

How long has it held up for you?

This works!

Is this spray paint that you use? and also what color is it?
