Jewelry Cleaner

NEVER BUY JEWELRY CLEANER AGAIN!

1 tablespoon salt


1 tablespoon baking soda


1 tablespoon dish detergent


1 cup water


1 piece aluminum foil

Directions:


1. Heat water in the microwave for 1 or 2 minutes.


2. Cut a piece of aluminum foil that roughly covers the bottom of a small bowl (like a cereal bowl).


3. Pour hot water into bowl. Place salt, soda, and dishwashing liquid into bowl. Place jewelry on top of foil and let


 it sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse jewelry in cool water and dry jewelry completely with soft cloth. Discard solution

 after use and make a new batch next time.

4. According to wire-sculpture.com, "this works well for gold-filled, brass, German (nickel) silver, and sterling 


silver. I have even cleaned jewelry with freshwater pearls, shell cameos and mother of pearl with no problem.".
