Thank you so much!
Hello Everyone! It's Giveaway day! I just did the random drawing and they pulled Tina Karason! Congratulations! Please everyone keep watching for more giveaways! If anyone is wondering what I use to pick the winner it is a you tube random comment picker, just so you know it is completely random. I am a flawed human and would so give it to my favorite comment that is why I have to use it. Thank you everyone!
Great info. More please.
As I watch through your videos… you’re making me braver in restoring my jewelry.
I have sold many pieces for almost nothing as a “repair needed” item. I’ve lost thousand’s of dollars doing that!
I’ve been reselling for quite a few years. I’ve learned more from you than the hundreds of videos I’ve watched here on TH-cam!
I’m really hoping many others find you and we together can save a ton of history together!
OMG! Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me! I am so happy you are thinking of restoring. It is so true about losing money. I suggest just practicing on actual broke or cheap pieces to get the feel for it. The best of luck to you and let me know if you have any questions. Thank you again so much for the wonderful comment. They really keep me going and happy to hear they help!
Just great! thanks so much. I have a few pieces that I need to repair, I just have find the courage to do it. I'm afraid of messing it up. Please do a video regarding the sourcing of the stones and how to order the right size of stones.❤
Great idea. I will do one!
Wonderful information, thank you so much for sharing your expertise! Just discovered your channel yesterday and love it!
Awesome! Thank you! I really appreciate it
Hiya dear Kacie. I emailed you ❣💖❣💖
Wow! You never cease to amaze me! I’m so glad I caught part 2. I was hoping I’d spot it as soon as possible. I can’t thank you enough for this information. So helpful! Thank you so much!
I’m just trying to start up a resale business, and feel quite overwhelmed. Your gentle way, combined with amazing knowledge, is a great help.
Your little girl is adorable! Love the way you were encouraging the excitement and sharing the joy! Enjoy every moment! Before you know it, she’ll be a teen! Don’t miss the inbetween!
Love to you & yours,
Jacqui

Thank you so much! I am so very happy it helps and encourages you! I know it is overwhelming, but I hope you stick to it. It is so much fun! Let me know if you have any questions I would love to help in any way I can. Thank you so much for your compliments on my daughter! She is so amazing! She loves to watch my videos and my work room is also her play room. I put her on this video and when she saw it she was so excited and started to dance around like she was famous!
Happiest Easter Blessngs 💖💖💖 and thank you for the pros and cons. Helpful 😍
Same to you Dee! So happy to see you on here again!
Fantastic videos...part 1 and part 2 ....actually all your videos are great!!!
Thank you so much! That really means a lot!
Thank you! I tried e6000 I wasn't thrilled with it.
You can go 30 minutes and we would watch it!!!
Wonderful! Great advice! Please see me other comment on Part 1. I have a few questions there for you. Have a great day and God bless!😄
Thank you for your advice!!! You have been a great help to me, today! 👍😄
Thank you! Really interesting how intricate it is to clean jewelry, surprising that water is damaging to some pieces.
Another great video. Thank you.
Awesome video. Thank you!! ❤
Ohh THANK YOU..I Needed this!! 🙏🙏🙏🤟❣
I really enjoy learning from your videos!
Thank you so much for this video! I also highly dislike the G-S Hypo Cement..it is pretty useless and so messy to use. I will definitely give the Gorilla glue a try! Hope you have a wonderful day!
Thank you!! I know I hate that glue but I think you will be very happy with the gorilla glue it works so well!!
New to jewelry selling... How do I know the difference between what you mentioned... gilt silver, gold plated and gold filled?
Usually it is gold filled jewelry is marked or is suppose to be. It has a much thicker layer of gold. Gilt and plated is very thin and can be taken off with something as simple as a sunshine cloth.
Grateful for sincerely sharing professional experience in cleaning jewelry despite my extreme difficulty in listening to ur explanation with your "sing-song" accent at esentence's ending.
lol, well I am happy to help. I also have a lot of cheat sheets over these videos so you can look through them without having to listen, 🤣. If you email me at kaciepaige03@hotmail.com I can send you the PDF so you can have the info. ‘No it’s not a sales tactic, I never sell anything on TH-cam, period’ it’s my rule so I can stay unbiased about things and products. Thank you so much for commenting and you kind words.
Thank you so much for sharing
Question is there anyway to replace the coating on glass faux pearls or anyway to replace the foil on the back of rhinestones ? Do they make any products for that ?
OMG, there is but jeez it is a very long and hard process. I do not recommend it if you can just buy the vintage one for any reasonable price. It is hard if you want to do it right. However, if you are just trying to fix it for yourself and not restore it to the original you can use pearlescent paint for the pearls coating. As for the foiling on stones, it is actually a chemical process done like plating gold onto another metal. You can put mirror paint on the back, but it does not work well and can get messy.
Thank you again. Looks like I need new glue. I just finished a few pieces w the 6000 glue and did find it to be stringy. I will get the gorilla gel for my future projects.
lol, yes I am not sure who started the rumor that it was the best, but we need to find them! When I started repairing pieces I thought it was suppose to be the best. I am so happy you will get the gorilla gel. I think you will really love the difference!
I’ve watched this video twice already. Such great information and cleaning tips. Thanks so much. Love all your videos
So glad it is helpful!
How do you use that semichrome cream to test Bakelite? I have some pieces I’m not sure if it’s true Bakelite.
You put a dab of it on the Q-tip and rub it on the piece that you suspect is Bakelite. Make sure that the piece is washed first though because it can pick up that dirt and give you kind of a false positive. The color will look like sort of a nicotine yellow if you’ve ever seen that or like a brownish yellow on the QTip
Replacing missing faux pearl, do you recommend a certain brand? Thanks
No no certain brand, I just suggest you get a vintage match instead of going with a brand name. Undrilled vintage faux pearl is what I would type in eBay or Mr. Rhinestone. You will be a able to find a perfect match from there.
Thank you for pointing out the differences in the glues. I just purchased the E6000 since so many folks were recommending it for jewelry repair. After watching your video, I am so glad I didn’t use it and will purchase the Gorilla gel. Also, thank you for putting together the names of suppliers and supplies…it is so helpful when you are a newbie.
Oh I am so happy! I know how it feels and am so happy that it was helpful. Let me know if you have any questions or want a specific video. I am just so happy to have helped!!
Through experience, I no longer EVER apply glue from the tube!!!😱
So hilarious and true!!
What do you recommend to replace earrings post and brooch pins, glue or soldering?
Gluing will just make you lose that piece. You can not glue metal to metal or it will fall off. There are adhesives that will allow metal to bond to other metal, but that is not any glue. When you find glue that says that it will be for something that is stationary and not meant to be handled much. Soldering is the best, but it can be difficult, dangerous, and ruin the piece if you are not skills at it. However, you can take two part epoxy resin and use that. It can create a permanent and secure bond. Just make sure to follow the direction exactly. NO GUESSING on measurements, lol, I did that before. It is a really alternative to soldering.
I need to get new glues after seeing that. What brand do you have for glass cleaner, I don’t ever remember seeing one without ammonia. Thanks.
I just use windex ammonia free. I find it at Walmart. The generic brand works just as well. On the front of the bottle it will say Ammonia free.
Stunning
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community, it means so much! Your videos are very helpful. I would love a recommendation on how to clean a particular brooch. Should I email you?
Yes please do! I am happy to help.
I’d be worried I would ruin the value, I am not brave enough!
lol, yeah, I practiced a lot before I started on higher end pieces. Mostly on broken things and cheap ones. It eventually gets easier.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
Thank you for watching! I am just so happy to help!
You are so gentle and caring about your pieces. It's inspiring.
Thank you!! It is a labor of love I guess!! They are all just so pretty to me!
Can magic erasers be used on costume jewelry?
Yes, but not on plated jewelry. It will remove the plating or enamel. It can also scuff stones if you push to hard. I have used it to remove seriously deteriorated plating and enamel. It is also good on pot metal.
HI, Great video again.. Cute little girl...
Thank you so much. Thank you too about Olive! She had such a wonderful time and she loves watching mommy on TV so I put her on this video and she was so excited!
I don't care for E6000 either, I will pick up a bottle of gorilla gel and some of the other recommended supplies. Let's say you have a round brooch the back fell off, it is a solid 925 disc, what is your goto product for attaching the sterling to either stone or resin?
Yes, the E6000 seems to be a cult favorite, but I just do not feel it is the glue that works best. I would use the gorilla gel still or the two part epoxy gorilla glue. It is ok to use the thicker epoxy when doing something with larger pieces such as the backs of pieces, but I do not recommend the two part epoxy for smaller items because of the thickness. The gorilla glue gel will still hold very firm though. I love it because it really adheres well to most all surfaces in jewelry. I hope this helped.
@@OlivesVintageMarket thank you so much for the info 💗
I learned so much from you thank you 🙏
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this video! 😘
Thank you for watching!
I have a goldish brass color antique necklace that I thought was gold. I rubbed it on a testing stone and it is a silver color underneath. It also has verdigris so I'm not sure what to clean it with? I know it's not gold but whatever is making it the gold color, I don't want to ruin it trying to get the verdigris off. Thanks for any information or suggestion.
I am so sorry I am just getting to this. Test stones have a extremely fine grit that allows it to gather a specimen from the metal being tested. That being said it would take a gold wash or something like that off of a piece. To get the verdigris off using some down and a soft toothbrush should work. Let me know!
@@OlivesVintageMarket Will do, thank you!
Do you have any tips on how to replace large cabachons? I've seen people use 2 part epoxy, but wanted your take on that particular glue. Would Gorilla glue suffice? Also, I have a piece I'm trying to restore, but the rhinestones are glued in so well they won't come out no matter what I do. I tried soaking in boiling water, but those blighters are stuck fast. Any suggestions?
Who sometimes rhinestones are glued in with superglue and boiling water won’t even take those out so depending on the finish of the piece, you may need to do some chipping away at the surface to allow water to get in there and sometimes acetone can help with superglue, but also if you have a little bit of mineral oil to play on it every once in a while That can help chemically damage to allow them to be loosened. I would be happy to take a look at it if you would like to send a picture to my email address and I could help a little bit better.
@@OlivesVintageMarket Sure! Thank you Kacie ❤️
@@saveyourselves5923 also, the adhesive you use is usually or can usually be set upon your preference and your needs. I prefer the gorilla glue for most of my jobs. It allows for better precision, faster setting and it still gives just as strong as a hold to me now the differences is if you have something very heavy or in a really odd weird shape can actually be beneficial, but it does take a long time to set and even the five minute ones that set in like five minutes they’re not completely harden for like 48 hours. You have to be careful not to allow Dustin stuff in them so that’s the reason I prefer the gorilla glue and it’s still good for a large cabin, because most cabins aren’t very large so you can use the gorilla glue but once again it’s all preference you can use it. I just find that the gorilla glue is already a two-part glue that has to be shaken very well to make sure it has that strong hold while epoxy you can have Miss steps and mixing it and all other things things so I prefer the gorilla glue but part of epoxy is good as well.
@@OlivesVintageMarket This is gold dust, thank you 😁
This was so helpful!! I didn’t know almost any of this. I love jewelry but had no idea how to bring them back to life. Very much appreciate your careful analysis of glues! Gorilla glue gel it is!!!

What is gilt silver
Gilt Silver, Vermeil, and Gold over Silver are usually pretty interchangeable in this world. I know there are slight differences but it basically means gold over silver. The difference is usually the microns of gold plating.
Thank you for the amazing videos! Loving all this new information!
how do you use it to test bakelite?
Simichrome can be put on a q tip. (Just a dab) and rubbed on the inside or back of the piece you suspect is Bakelite. The qtip will turn yellow (ranges from light to dark). Usually looks like a nicotine yellow. Make sure the piece is clean because you do not want the test to fail because of dirt or grim. I can do a sure tutorial over it. It is the only way I can tell. I can never tell from things like 409 or smelling it. I hope this helps
hi from Joplin MO
Oh, I pass by there all the time!
Thank you for all the wonderful information -nice to know there is someone that takes the time to research and share
You are so good!!
Lol, thank you so much. I appreciate it!
Excellent!!
Thank You!
so good I would love another video on your stone buying..
Some one else asked for that too. So you would like me to show how I buy my stones? If so I would be happy to make one
Yes! Yes!! Please do!!! I have several pieces that need replacement stones and no idea of how to measure for sizes.
Thank you!
Thank you! I always appreciate all comments!!
These 2 videos were so helpful. Thank you for sharing!
On the last 2 pieces, the blue clip earring and the Mazer pin, did you use the non ammonia glass cleaner on the paint brush, or did you just dry brush them? Sorry if I missed that part.
Again, TFS. I'm thrilled I found a channel that shares such useful info.
Thank you so much!! I am so happy you like it and it is helpful.
The on the mazer pin you can use the glass cleaner because they do not have the foil back, but on the blue clip on earring that has the foiled back I do not recommend using the glass cleaner. It can rub the backing off or if it does not do that I can discolor it. It may also be just fine, I just do not recommend liquid on the foil backs.
Wonderful content. I love the way you teach about jewelry and make it look so easy. I am ordering some of your suggested items. Can't wait until your next video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

@@OlivesVintageMarket hi

Hi ,
Your video is wonderful!
I’ve been looking on Amazon for the glue you suggested but haven’t found it.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
@@paulavieyra4821 yes the Gorilla Super glue gel is definitely the one I would suggest. Here is a link to one on Amazon, but you can get it even cheaper at Walmart or maybe even Amazon. www.amazon.com/Gorilla-Super-Glue-Gram-Clear/dp/B00OAAUAX8/ref=asc_df_B00OAAUAX8/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198135314122&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6283736230957538024&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1013200&hvtargid=pla-373758791647&psc=1 I hope this helps
