Vodka & Diamonds..Yes Please!

Diamonds are a girls best friend..I have never met a woman who doesn't appreciate a nice shiny bobble. We all know diamond come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, better known as the 3 C's.

The most traditional classic diamond are transparent and colorless with an amazing shine...If you're like me and wear your rings/jewelry all the time they begin to look dull and dingy.

I recently took my watch in to be fixed and asked my jeweler about this very problem. He gave me a tip on how to brighten up my bling with something I would have never thought of...Now your probably saying I can clean my my rings with jewelry cleaner, but if you don't have any on hand you can always use this quick and easy tip.

Tip #23: Vodka & Diamonds!!
Two of my favorite things together!!

 To quickly restore a diamonds shine and sparkle use a little vodka.  Pour the vodka into a small bowl or dish and drop the diamond(s) in briefly to dissolve any grease or gunk that may have accumulated on/or in the setting. Then rinse well with warm water and pat dry with a soft lint free cloth. For deeper cleaning use the vodka method first then drop the diamond(s) in a mild soap soak for a few minutes and rinse with warm water. 
This definitely is one of my new favorite tips! I will certainly never look at my glass of vodka quite the same again!
