PROPER CARE
Clean quartz crystal using warm soapy water and a soft brush. Although it has a high hardness, quartz crystal can still be scratched or damaged by gemstones with higher hardness, as well as other materials. Avoid using household chemicals when cleaning quartz crystal beads, components, or jewelry. Store quartz crystal inside a fabric-lined box or wrapped in a soft cloth.
HOW DO YOU ACTIVATE CRYSTALS?
Flowing water can energize crystals. Put your crystals in a glass container under cool running water for 10-20 minutes. If you live near a natural running brook or river, you can place them in a mesh bag and again leave them in the water for several minutes.
Rest the stone in full moonlight or sunlight.
Leave them out in the rain.
Bury it in a bowl of sea salt or rice.
