Hello fellow shoppers, my name is Kara Lyons and you've arrived at my shopping blog. Make no mistake, I absolutely love to shop and when I'm not working I'm in the city shopping at my favorite stores. Since I shop often, I've learned how to spot the best bargains and I also know the best times to buy certain items. I hardly ever pay full price for anything I buy and I always take advantage of in store coupons and promotions. My love of shopping began when I was little and I would tag along behind my mom while she shopped. When I got old enough to shop for myself, I began to discover ways to get more for my money. If you also enjoy shopping, but you're on a budget, read my blog to learn how you can get the things you want and need without breaking the bank.
A wedding ring can be one of the most important pieces of jewelry that you own. Yet, you may not be aware of what should be done to protect it against common issues. Unfortunately, this may cause some individuals to inadvertently damage or lose their wedding rings.
Clean Your Ring Every Couple of Months
One of the most important things that you can do to protect your wedding ring will be to clean it on a regular basis. This will keep it looking bright, and it will also remove particles before they can cause serious damage to the jewelry. To clean the ring, you should use a microfiber cloth to gently wipe away oils, grime, and other substances that have gotten on it. Unfortunately, there may be areas of the ring that will be extremely difficult for you to reach with this cloth. Some individuals may attempt to use a toothbrush to scrub these areas, but the bristles can scuff the ring. The safer option will be to take the ring to a professional jeweler as they will have tools that can safely scrub these areas.
Avoid Wearing Your Ring While Cleaning
Cleaning your home and business is a task that will seemingly have no end. When starting this work, you should place your wedding ring in a safe location. While you may not like the idea of removing your wedding ring, it can be exposed to numerous forms of damage during cleaning. For example, it could be more likely that you inadvertently bang the ring into a hard surface, which could cause the stone to come loose. Also, many cleaning solutions can be highly damaging to wedding rings, and removing your ring will be the best way of ensuring these substances do not get on the ring.
Add Your Ring to Your Insurance Policy
While you will likely take extraordinarily good care of your wedding ring, there will always be a risk that something terrible could happen to it. This may stem from fires, floods, theft, and other unavoidable situations. Fortunately, you can protect the financial value of your ring by adding it to your homeowners or renters insurance policy. In the event that your ring is lost or destroyed, you can use the compensation from your policy to help replace it. While there will be no way of eliminating the pain of losing your original wedding ring, having a replacement made as soon as possible can be the next best thing.
