<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 451660, member: 5398"]This might be too time consuming for a large quantity of jewelry, but for delicate pendants I wrap tissue paper or a piece of soft fabric around just the pendant and/or put a small (2"×2" etc) zip lock bag over the pendant, zip it as close to the chain as I can, then wrap tissue paper around the chain and put the whole thing in a bigger ziplock bag. </p><p><br /></p><p>For delicate strands of beads such as pearls, crystals, or various combinations of beads, or chunky chaIns that could scratch easily, I wrap a long narrow piece of tissue paper around each strand, tape in a few places, then coil or fold the necklace so it fits snuggly in a zip lock bag (usually sandwich size).
