  13. How do I care for my jewelry? There are some easy-to-follow tips for maintaining the beauty and luster of your LJN Design original jewelry design. How often you choose to clean your jewelry is up to you, but by handling with care, you will help retain the beauty and sparkle of each design.
    • Apply hairspray, lotion and/or perfume before putting on the jewelry.
    • Do not immerse the jewelry item in water or any other type of liquid. 
    • After wearing the jewelry item, gently wipe the gemstones, links and other hardware (closures and pendants) with a soft cotton cloth.
    • When not wearing the jewelry item, keep the piece in a plastic interlocking seal bag or soft drawstring pouch.  This will minimize the strands from kinking or becoming entangled with your other jewelry. The links and hardware will be less prone to tarnish. Each LJN Design is shipped in a soft drawstring pouch. After wearing, simply place the piece back in the bag. Tightly close the pouch.
    • If you choose to clean your jewelry, particularly for sterling silver designs (including closures and pendants), use a non-abrasive product specifically made for sterling silver. Avoid using the product directly on the gemstones as it may damage the integrity of the gemstones.
  14. What if I want a particular custom design that is not on the website? LJN Designs is open to designing custom jewelry pieces.  Simply send your request, via e-mail [info@ljndesignsinc.com] or postal mail [P.O. Box 564453 Chicago, Illinois 60656], describing the design concept, jewelry type (necklace, bracelet, earrings), length, wire color, gemstones, etc. Laura will work with you to design the piece. Prices are contingent on design complexity and desired materials.
  15. What if I want a jewelry design using a particular birthstone? If the desired jewelry item is not displayed on the website, contact Laura via e-mail or postal mail as this may be a custom request. The following birthstone summary may be useful to identify particular gemstones associated with specific calendar months. It is a nice sentiment to remember a special occasion with a jewelry piece reminiscent of one's birthstone. Many of the designs use gemstones corresponding with a birthday month. You may be searching for a jewelry design that corresponds with a particular birthday month. For example:
