Never lose another earring

There is nothing more frustrating than looking in the mirror and realizing you have lost an earring or going to grab a pair from your dresser and finding only one! Much like socks, these tiny, sparkly adornments have a way of separating and never finding each other again. Here are three tips to keep you from ever losing an earring again.

1. Invest in Locking Earring Backs
Keep your earrings on your ears with earring backs that lock into place. Generally, the backs that come with your earrings are designed to keep them in place, but do not, however, offer any real security mechanisms beyond that. 

2. Pin Your Earrings in Place

Pinning your earrings to a larger object that holds them together is great way to take tiny, individual pieces that are easy to lose and securing them to a bigger one that is not.
You could, for example have a cork on your night stand and pin your pairs to it when you take them off to go to bed. 

3. Hook Earrings to Each Other

A simple tip, but a smart one! When you take off your earrings, attach them to each other by poking one stud through the backing of the other and securing it with the second backing. This way, your earrings will never be apart and if you lose one, you lose both. After all, what is one without the other. 

If you are going to spend money on expensive earrings or you are holding on to sentimental ones, you want to do all you can to keep them safe. These simple tips will aid you in the fight to keep earrings together and where they should be.
