Summer is calling which means we’re taking advantage of every opportunity to soak up the sun. With the warm weather stirring our sense of adventure, many of our schedules are beginning to fill with travel plans. Before hitting the road, you’ll want to decide on the statements that will shine during your journey. As you prepare, it’s equally important to consider how you’ll ensure your jewelry remains safe. Follow along with S. Lennon & Co Jewelers as we explore how you can smartly vacation with your valuables, keeping your jewelry secure and your style on point.
Step One: Tracking Your Treasures
To ensure all your favorite pieces are accounted for, make a list of the jewelry you'd like to bring based on the clothes you’re packing. While it’s tempting to take your entire jewelry box, a quick brainstorm will reveal the exact accessories that match your plans. This way you can prepare for your upcoming adventures without worrying about the extra pieces that you won't end up wearing.
Step Two: Wear What You Can
An extra risk is always added when packing jewelry into a suitcase that will be out of sight. Our expert recommendation is to either wear your jewelry or carry it in a bag that will stay with you. When it comes to staples like diamond studs or a beloved bracelet, you can leave these on for the entirety of your trip. With a change in routine, it’s easy to make a mistake by leaving valuables on a hotel nightstand. Having your treasures close is the best way to know they’re safe.
Step Three: Packing with Patience
Out of all the steps, the most important is taking the time to pack your jewelry. No one wants to arrive at their destination with tangled necklaces or discover that one earring is missing. Alleviate any unnecessary stress by using an organizer for your jewelry. The size of your case will depend completely on what you plan on bringing. From small travel wallets to double layer boxes, there are plenty of options on the market. Select the organizer that will best suit your needs based on the size of your travel collection.
