Your engagement ring is very valuable, and this is a special piece of jewelry that requires care. Most people view their engagement ring as their most prized possession and feel that it is very sentimental, so it will need to be protected, and you will have to store it properly to ensure it does not get ruined or lost.
Keep a Designated Location
When removing your ring, it is a must that you put it in a designated location so that you remember its spot. A ring dish is ideal, as is a jewelry box, because you can place these all-around your house to have a safe location to store your ring. This will prevent you from losing it, and you won’t have to worry about your ring being thrown out or misplaced. Not knowing where you placed your ring is a terrible feeling that can lead to panic, so it is recommended that you place a ring dish in your kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. It is also recommended that you keep your ring dishes in the same spot to make things more convenient, and this, too, will prevent your ring from getting lost. Keep it in the same, safe location and make sure the one in your bathroom is far from the drain.
You Can and Should Take It Off
Some people will tell you that you should never take off your diamond engagement ring, but this is not realistic, and there will be times when you will have to remove your ring from your finger. You may decide to take it off when doing house chores, swimming, working out or applying moisturizer. This is a good idea because household chemicals, chlorine, sweat and hard surfaces can damage your stone or loosen the metal, and your rock may eventually fall out. Removing your ring when doing certain activities will prevent this from happening, but you need to know where to put your ring. In addition to a ring dish, you can also consider placing it in a drawer, but again, it should be the same one so that you don’t forget where it is. A drawer is a safe spot for a diamond ring, and you will be able to access it as soon as you’re ready to place it back onto your finger.
Fabric Pouches: Made for Keeping Your Ring Secure
Fabric pouches are also great because they will prevent your diamond from being scratched, so consider buying individual fabric pouches because your engagement ring should not come into contact with other rings or jewelry. It’s also important to note that fabric-lined jewelry cases are ideal for protecting your ring and avoiding scratches.
