Getting Kinks Out of a Choker
I would like to know how to get the kink out of a choker necklace. Adrienne
If this is a fine chain...
If this is a fine chain, try using two straight pins to slowly work them out. Jann - Abilene, TX

Herringbone
If it's a Herringbone type, it can be hard. If you have a pair of jewelers pliers (or pliers with smooth jaws), try to flatten the kinked part between the jaws, with light pressure. If it's a link/mesh type, gently manipulate the area till it lies flat. Other than that, if it's a good piece of jewelry, you will have to see a jeweler. KayD

rolling pin
Try placing the necklace on a flat hard surface, then gently roll over it with a rolling pin. Bernadette
