So, you finally found the one and you\u2019ve got the engagement ring to prove it. Your engagement ring is certainly a treasured item that you\u2019ll be excited to wear for the rest of your life. But do you know how to take care of it? Since engagement rings are such delicate and valuable pieces of jewelry, they require a little looking after. So, what do you need to do to take care of your engagement ring? We\u2019ve put together a list of exactly what you need to do to keep your ring in beautiful condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Set Up: What To Do Right Away<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Insure It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

First things first, you\u2019ll want to insure your ring. You may not think you need to insure your ring, but accidents happen. You need to be sure that you\u2019ve protected your investment from theft or accident. Don\u2019t skip this step! After you get your ring appraised and insured, you can rest easy that you\u2019ll be protected from any unexpected issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Size It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Make sure your fianc\u00e9 got the right size for your engagement ring\u2014 for security reasons, your ring should be a perfect fit. This is because improperly sized rings (even if it\u2019s just by a little) are at a much higher risk of slipping off. If you\u2019re not completely sure that you have the right size, have the size checked out by a jeweler.<\/span><\/p>\n

Know When To Wear It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You\u2019re excited about your engagement ring and you probably want to wear it all the time. But you should know that it\u2019s okay to take your engagement ring off sometimes, especially when you\u2019d be putting it at risk of getting damaged. You should avoid getting harsh chemicals on your ring (like when you\u2019re cleaning) and you shouldn\u2019t do any vigorous activity with your ring on (like working out). You might think your ring is indestructible but it can easily be damaged by chemicals or being struck. A diamond might be sturdy but precious metals like gold or many precious stones (especially emeralds) can be easily damaged.<\/span><\/p>\n

Get Regular Check Ups<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your engagement ring needs its own kind of annual doctor\u2019s appointment: a check up at the jeweler. You should take your ring to be checked at a jeweler at least once a year to make sure that the setting is in place and that you aren\u2019t at risk of losing any stones. This is a simple preventative step that you need to take to make sure your ring stays in good condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Be Careless With It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You already know not to wear your ring while around harsh chemicals or doing vigorous activity. But remember not to put your ring in other dangerous situations. For example, don\u2019t start leaving your ring carelessly around the house, and especially not around any sinks or bathtubs! Have a safe place where you can put your ring at home when you take it off. You should also remember not to take your ring off in public places, which could cause you to leave your ring behind. It\u2019s also a good idea to avoid swimming with your ring on, especially if you\u2019re going for a dip in the ocean. If your ring slips off into the Pacific, you\u2019re not going to see it again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clean It Regularly<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Finally, remember to clean your ring to keep it looking its best. You can try gently cleaning your ring at home with warm water (remember to never use chemicals on your ring), but really the best method for cleaning an engagement ring is a professional steam. Most jewelers can quickly and easily clean your ring. With an occasional trip to the cleaner, you\u2019ll keep your ring shining as brightly as the day you bought it!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
