When you put your fine gold and silver neck chains away gently and with great care, do the jewelry goblin and neck-chain monster get in and cause a twisted, tangled, knotted mess? Then, the next time you’re ready to dress up and hang chains around your neck, they're nothing but a clump of shiny metal. It doesn't have to be that way. We have the solution to nasty tangles. To keep fine neck chains separated and from getting tangled, cut a plastic drinking straw half the chain’s length, then snip off an extra quarter inch, open the clasp, drape one half through the straw, bring the other part around the outside and re-fasten the clasp. And that's the On The House tip for today.
