All of you making bangle ornaments - beware that the bangles may tarnish, discolor or rust in a short time. I've been very disappointed with seeing this on bangle ornaments I made just a few years ago so now I cover all the new bangles with clear nail polish before using them. Just brush on the nail polish on one side, let dry, then do the other side. You cannot see that it has polish on them but it does help preserve the bangle. I have no idea what the polish does to the lace threads as far as acidity but I feel more comfortable giving these ornaments away knowing the metal won't look ugly in the future.
