A simple, non-toxic homemade jewelry cleaning solution made from three pantry staples that brings back the sparkle on rings, necklaces, and bracelets in under twenty minutes. Works on gold, silver, platinum, and diamonds.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 tablespoon Dawn dish soap
1 tablespoon table salt
1 cup warm water
Instructions
Mix the dish soap, salt, and warm water together in a small bowl until the salt is dissolved and the ingredients are fully combined.
Place your jewelry into the solution and let it soak for 10 to 15 minutes, allowing the solution to penetrate buildup around prongs, inside band engravings, and underneath stones.
After soaking, use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently scrub the jewelry using light, circular strokes, paying particular attention to the underside of rings and areas around stone settings.
Rinse the jewelry thoroughly under clean, lukewarm water, turning the pieces so water reaches every angle and flushes out any loosened debris.
Pat the jewelry dry with a microfiber cloth, then set the pieces on a clean dry cloth and allow them to air dry completely before storing.
