Tips & Help for a problem with earrings and loose rings


We would like to share some tips we have come across .


Tip : 1. Jewelry Cleaning :

Sterling silver jewelry use Baking Soda. Barely dampen the piece of jewelry with water ( the dryer the better ). Hold in the palm of your hand, pour a generous amount of baking soda over jewelry and rub with your finger tips. Continue until tarnish is gone. Rinse in cool water and dry. Credit for this tip goes to a jewelry maker we knew in Tucson. Thank You Karen !

Gold jewelry use white tooth paste . Put on an old toothbrush , dampen and scrub. Rinse in cool water. It will be bright and shiny just like new.


Tip : 2. I change my earrings every day. I have very sensitive ears. To keep them from getting irritated I dip the post or hook in an ointment. This helps the earring to slide in easily so there is no irritation. Please use only an ointment you are not allergic to.

Tip: 3 Caroline also shared a tip with me after using L'Protect on her earrings, it is as follows: Click here for L'Protect

One more thing. I had to switch to rubber backs totally. I couldn't get enough L'Protect on the metal backs to make the itching go away, so tell people to try the rubber backs. My posts are fine, though. I even fell asleep with them in and my ears are still fine! thanks


As we get more tips we will add to our list. If you have any info. you would like to share please send E-Mail to:info.aaajewelry@yahoo.com

We are always happy to get new helpful hint and tips.

In the above picture you can see the different ways you can use these little "Earring Keepers" and "Safety Nuts"

For those of us that have a problem with losing our earrings, here is the problem solver.Little rubber tubes that slip on the post of your earring.

All of the Earring safety nuts and comfort pads will contain 1 doz. pair (24 pieces)


ERS101 Clear $1.50 per 1 dozen pair
ERS102 White $1.50 per 1 dozen pair
ERS103 Clear ear nut $1.50 per 1 dozen pair
ERS104 SilverPlated safety nut $2.62 per 1 dozen pair
 
If you like to wear big earrings like I do, try ERS105 through ERS108, they hold the earrings up so they look and feel great.


ERS105 Lg.White comfort pad $2.62 per 1 dozen pair DISCONTINUED
ERS106 SM.White comfort pad $2.62 per 1 dozen pair DISCONTINUED
ERS107 Gold Tone with clear comfort pad-Nickel Free $2.62 per 1 dozen pair
ERS108 SilverTone with clear comfort pad-Nickel Free $2.62 per 1 dozen pair
ERS109 $1.50 per 1 Doz. Mixed. 4 Pair of each ERS101, ERS102, ERS103.
 
The below are the new White Rubber and Clear silicone Ear nuts and comfort pads. They fit much more secure than the old ones. I have found from testing the below comfort pads and earring nuts that the White Rubber, ERS110 & ERS111 work very well on the nylon earrings. They are softer and slide on easier and grip the nylon for a tight fit.
ERS110 Lg.White Rubber comfort pad $2.62 per 1 dozen pair
ERS111 Small White Rubber earring nut $2.62 per 1 dozen pair
ERS112 Lg.Clear Silicone comfort pad $2.62 per 1 dozen pair

Ring Re-Sizers

Here is what a customer have to say about our re-resizers:


7/29/2000
Hi, yes I received the package, and everything was there. Thanks alot, and the ring guard works great. Just what I needed for my white gold wedding
band. My fingers swell and shrink, so I need my ring big sometimes, not so big others. This is fantastic.
Thanks again, Evelyn P. of Aberdeen, MD



See information for these ring guards below.


The official name for these helpful littles items are ring guards. We like to call them ring re-sizers. The ring guard tightens loose rings, preventing loss without resizing. Ring guards clamp onto the ring's shank and tightened with a pair of need nose pliers. They allow the ring to expand over the knuckle and fit snugly on the finger. They are very comfortable, you can't even tell they are there.

To determine the size needed, measure the bottom width of the ring shank. (the ring band at the bottom of the ring)
Small size fits 2.5mm shanks
Medium size fits 2.75mm to 5mm shanks
Large size fits 5mm to 6mm shanks
They come in :
14kt Yellow Gold ( small only ). *YG3*
14kt Yellow Gold-filled ( small, medium & large.) * GF *
14kt White gold-filled ( small & medium ) * WGF *
 
Gold-Filled - items are made by combining a layer or layers of gold alloy to a base metal (usually brass), then rolling or drawing the metal to the desired thickness and shape. It has a long life and can be worn by most people without reactions or difficulties.


The price of gold has raised so much that I have to raise my price. The price I have to pay now for the 14kt yellow gold ring guard is $15.37, that is what I am going to charge you. Sorry I can't charge you less but I will have to stop carry them if I do. I will keep the others at the same price as long as I can.
GF1 $ 5.25 Yellow Gold-filled Ring Guard fits 5mm and over
GF2 $5.15 Yellow Gold-filled Ring Guard fits 2.75mm to 5mm shanks
WGF2 $5.15 White Gold-filled Ring Guard fits 2.75mm to 5mm shanks
YG3 $15.37 14kt Yellow Gold Ring Guard fits 2.5mm
GF3 $5.00 Yellow Gold-filled Ring Guard fits 2.5mm
WGF3 $5.00 White Gold-filled Ring Guard fits 2.5mm

Rosa,
I received the ring guards today. Thank you so much!
My engagement ring is a full size too big. To my horror, I lost it (today!!), prior to opening your package. After an hour of searching, I discovered my ring had fallen off - into the kitchen trash can!
Fortunately, I found the ring and now am wearing it safely with my new ring guard (Nylon ring sizer). My fiancé never needs to know about this little incident...
Thank you again for offering such a great solution.

J. M. of Fairfax, VA



I found some nylon ring sizers. They are not as comfortable as the metal ones above but they are easy to put on and you can change them from one ring to the next.

NRSZ-1 $4.00 4 pack Nylon Sizers
