How to Take Care of Your Resin Keepsake

Your resin keepsake is a cherished memory of your special day, preserved in a timeless, beautiful display. Proper care ensures it lasts for many years in pristine condition. Below are key steps to keep your resin keepsake looking as vibrant as the day you received it.

1. Keep It Away from Direct Sunlight

Direct sunlight can cause the resin to yellow over time. To prevent this, avoid placing your keepsake in areas where it will receive long exposure to UV rays, such as window sills or directly under bright lights.

2. Clean Gently

Dust or fingerprints may accumulate on your resin piece. Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe away any dirt or smudges. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they could scratch or damage the resin surface.

3. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

While resin is quite durable, extreme temperatures can cause it to warp or become brittle. Keep your resin keepsake in a temperature-controlled environment to maintain its shape and integrity.

4. Avoid Excessive Handling

Handling your resin keepsake too often can introduce oils from your skin, which could affect its appearance. Try to limit how often it’s handled, especially without cleaning your hands first.

5. Check for Signs of Wear

If you notice any small cracks or scratches, it’s important to address them quickly. While resin is resistant to damage, accidents can happen. Consult a professional for repair if necessary.

6. Use Protective Displays

Consider placing your resin keepsake in a protective glass case or display cabinet. This will protect it from dust, dirt, and potential damage from being accidentally knocked over.

7. Polishing for Extra Shine

Over time, your resin piece might lose some of its luster. You can restore its shine by using a resin-safe polish. Be sure to follow the product instructions carefully to avoid damaging your keepsake.

Taking care

Your resin keepsake is more than just a beautiful display — it’s a treasured memory. By following these simple care tips, you can ensure that it remains a lasting part of your home and heart for years to come.
