Make Your Swarovski Crystal Sparkle
Want to know the secret behind makng your Swarovski crystal sparkle at home?

Walk into any Swarovski store and you'll see the gorgeous array of sparkling crystal figurines in their display cases. They look so enticing and magnificent.
You might think you can't recreate that effect at home but here's the secret - you can - and it's easy to do! We asked an expert at Swarovski to share his tips on how to make your crystal sparkle like it does in the shops but at home.
- Firstly, make sure you keep your crystal as pristine as possible. Carefully wipe any dust and marks such as fingerprints off the ornament.
- Next, place the ornament where you want to display it. A shelf is good but a display cabinet would be a better place.
- Invest in a spot light or angle an existing spot light to point towards the crystal.
So far so good. You'll probably notice a sparkle but nothing amazing. that's because there's one thing missing. You need an LED bulb. The reason why this low energy consuming bulb is better than conventional spot lights is that it gives out strong crisp white light. It's this bright light that dances off your crystal making it sparkle just like in the store. In fact, Swarovski shops use LED lighting themselves!
If you are looking to make your Swarovski jewellery sparkle more, you just need the right kind of light - bright white light. Your jewellery will sparkle under normal light but will look truely spectacular when it catches bright white light.
Where To Buy An LED Spot Light
The easiest place is eBay as loads of sellers stock this kind of bulb. You'll tend to find that DIY stores add a significant markup to what eBay sellers are selling them for which is why we'd recommend buying from auction (or a Buy It Now).
