Bead Care Enamel has a tendency to chip under the strains of everyday use. We believe that beaded jewelry is meant to be perfectly imperfect, just like its wearer! A little bit of chipped or scuffed character can add a lot of charm! Tips to minimize wear and tear:  Avoid wearing your enamel creations with lots of metal jewelry. You can mix it up with bone or vinyl beads for more interesting stacks! Try not to bump into counters, tables, or other hard surfaces while wearing.  These beads don’t float, so keep them away from pools, oceans, lakes & showers.
