Straws Keep Necklaces Tangle-Free on the Go

If we have learned anything from traveling over the years, it's that necklaces are the bane of traveling life. No matter how hard we try - putting them in their original boxes, specialized jewelry boxes with loops - they end up tangled. Most of the time, there is no coming back from those tangles, and unfortunately, that usually signals the end of our favorite necklace. But there is a better way! By threading the necklace through a simple straw and closing the clasp, the plastic guarantees a safe journey for your valuables.

The straw should be hard, reusable plastic, metal, or bamboo to ensure that it doesn't bend or fold during the journey.
