HSN FYI

SharkE — Thu, 11 Jul 2024 00:20:19 GMT

People in here have talked about the anti-tarnish jewelry boxes set of 3 as being very good.

1 set is on sale today for 79.95. I liked the other set of 3 better that is 89.95. So, bought 2 sets .

If interested, go to HSN start page and they're on the

main page. I liked the 89.00 ones better because of the box that is wide and flat.

I have those boxes from Colleen and my jewelry tarnished. I threw them away.

I have a lot of these boxes and at least 3 are from Colleen. I haven't had a problem with silver tarnishing in her boxes. I also store my heavier necklaces in one of those big ring boxes by laying them lengthwise in the rows. I also put several of my bracelets the same way. You can't store a lot of pieces doing this but since I have 10 or 11 boxes (not sure exactly) and several smaller travel size boxes as well. I wouldn't throw these boxes away even if they weren't tarnish resistant as they are a great way to store jewelry where I can see what is in the box and organize more efficiently.

I have 5 or 6 sets of the large Prestige boxes plus several, smaller ring boxes. The only time I ever polish silver is if I forget and leave a piece out of the box. I wouldn't use any other type of storage for my silver.

Hope they do the job ! Colleen seems to be happy about them. Gave away a lot of my silver, but, the higher end pieces I'd like to keep in an anti-tarnish box.

Tired of dipping and trying to clean without hitting the stones around and in between the settings.

I asked about how to store/clean SS jewelry several months ago in the jewelry forum. Lots of good suggestions. I have a huge jewelry armoire so decided to keep using it. Someone suggested anti-tarnish strips available on Amazon, so I ordered some. Cleaned all my SS jewelry, which took a while, and then sealed every piece in a food-grade "ziploc" bag with a strip. I ordered small medication ziploc bags for my rings and earrings. Several articles I read said food-grade food storage bags are the bags to get. Months later, each sterling silver piece is still as tarnish free as it can be. The strips have to be replaced every 6 months, so I noted the replacement date on my calendar. My armoire looks so organized, and my pieces are ready to wear at a moment's notice with very little additional cost.

@Ainhisg --I would love to see photos of your armoire!! Sounds amazing!!! I bought a new armoire a couple years ago, to replace a small ,rickety one my stupid EX gave me--- as I do have ALOT of jewelry, but still haven't organized it ---bad me! Most of my stuff is sterling too. It would take hours and hours to go thru it all. Makes want to get started with mine!

Years ago I bought the Preserve anti tarnish soft sided jewelry pouches from the Q, between them and the little black anti tarnish papers, my sterling looks like new.

I've had Colleen's boxes for about 4 years. Perfectly tarnish-free jewelry, still.

I just bought that set of 3 to add to my collection.

I have the Wolf anti tarnish box from ShopHQ. They don't sell them anymore. JTV sells them now at a much higher price. They have a see-through top and silver has not tarnished.

I have an older set of her tarnish free jewelry boxes. I bought a set of 2 boxes for rings, brooches, and bracelets, and 3 drawers with hooks at one end for my necklaces. I keep all my jewelry, both fine and costume, in these 5 stackable boxes. I've had the boxes at least 10 years, and I've never had anything tarnish. The boxes are still in good shape too.
