Stretch bracelets are a breeze to slide on and off, but for longevity and to avoid breakage:

• Bracelet should be able to be rolled over your hand to wrist with a minimum amount of stretching.
• Stretch bracelets should sit comfortably on your wrist or fit slightly loose. If after rolling on, the beads have gaps where elastic is visible between, you need a larger size. If the bracelet is not available in a larger size, I may be able to customize it for you. Contact me from the "Questions" tab.
• It's tempting (especially when bored - we've all been there) to play with your bracelet and stretch or snap it. Don't. Please. Elastic was not meant to last an eternity, and I want you to enjoy it for as long as possible.

• Make jewelry the last thing to go on, after sunscreens, lotions and perfumes have been applied AND dried.
• DO wear your jewelry with abandon, expressing your unique style, but remove it at the end of the day.
• To clean, gently wipe with water only and a soft, non abrasive cloth.
• And finally, enjoy your bracelet! The ease of this style makes it ideal for everyday accessorizing.

• Don't wear jewelry in the shower, while swimming in the pool or ocean, sunbathing, or while working up a serious sweat.
• Stones are pretty durable but they can be porous, so avoid subjecting them to oils, detergents, chlorine, or staining makeup. The spray tan that may look great on you doesn't look so hot on jewelry.
• Metal beads are plated with either 24k gold or sterling silver. It is not recommended to use a polishing cloth on metal plating as it will (over time) remove the finish.
• Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause some natural gemstones to lose their color and fade, so avoid storing jewelry in direct sunlight.
