I quick pin to start the mont of right. I got the inspiration for this pin from my life cheats board. It said that if you spray your cheap jewelry with clear acrylic it will help it from tarnishing quickly. I used modge podge clear acrylic spray a a new piece of cheapy jewelry. I put a layer on each side and let it dry. I dont know if it will tarnish quick or not, but I will update the status by the end of the month. Happy pinning!
