Jewellery experts Abbott Lyon have provided 7 top tips that will make taking jewellery on holiday so much easier; with tips on how to pack and look after your jewellery, wearers can look and feel fab while relaxing this summer.
The simple yet super helpful tips that have been provided by Abbott Lyon are guaranteed to make packing that little bit less stressful!
- Use zip-lock bags or jewellery pouches –For additional protection, place each piece of jewellery in a separate zip-lock bag to prevent tangling and scratching.
- Be selective: Consider the type and value of the jewellery you plan to bring. It is generally best to leave behind any expensive or sentimental pieces that you would be devastated to lose.
- Carry-on Is Key: If you can, always try to pack your jewellery in your carry-on luggage rather than check it in. This way, you can keep a close eye on it and reduce the risk of loss or theft. Additionally, it can be even easier to wear the jewellery you want for your holiday; that way, it’s always on you.
- Utilize Straws or Cardboard: To prevent delicate chains from tangling, thread each necklace through a drinking straw or wrap them around a piece of cardboard. This keeps them straight and tangle-free.
- Keep Your Pieces Away From Moisture: Moisture can increase tarnishing, so avoid packing jewellery in damp environments. If you’re travelling to a humid location, you can include a small packet of silica gel or anti-tarnish strips in your jewellery storage to absorb moisture. Ensure your jewellery is kept away from any liquids in your suitcase, as an accidental spill may damage your jewellery.
- Layer With A Soft Fabric:When packing jewellery, it’s best to layer each piece with a soft fabric, such as a scarf, flannel or cloth, to provide cushioning and prevent pieces from scratching and rubbing together.
- Invest In A Jewellery Roll:Jewellery rolls are typically flat, compact, and lightweight to keep your jewellery protected during long trips.
