Jewelry Care + Tips.
Every item by “By Hand, By Dana.” is handmade with love and care! In order to keep your jewelry looking A1 since Day 1, I would highly suggest the following:
Apply products - perfumes - lotions - oils - etc. prior to popping on your pieces.
Remove your jewelry before showering - swimming - sunbathing & exercising.
Metals may tarnish overtime due to oxygen - moisture - & natural body oils.
To prevent damage &/or breakage -- remove jewelry before bedtime & when participating in physical activities.
& remember to... handle with love & care as with anything else you love & care about!

Wash Care + Jewelry Maintenance.
"Hey, my bracelet cord is looking a little dingy, is there a way I can clean it?":
Yes of course there is!
Check out "Wash Care" below for tips on maintaining your jewelry.
Wash Care.
A natural soap such as African Black Soap or Castille Soap is what's recommend, though you can use whatever soap you prefer/have on hand.
1. Start by applying a dime size amount or how much ever you feel you need to your fingertips and massage into the bracelet or anklet using a bit of warm water to create a lather.
2.Throughly massage the soap and water mixture into the bracelet/anklet for 30-45 seconds.
3. Rinse jewelry completely with warm water.
4. Pat dry with a paper towel.
5. Sit bracelet in a safe place to dry.
(Totally Optional) - Apply a fingertip amount of natural oil (coconut, olive, grapeseed, avocado, etc.) of your choice to any metal pieces on the bracelets to moisture the metals & minimize any potential tarnish after washing.
