Idea Village - Clever Clasp Magnetic Jewelry Clasp Review

Have you ever struggled with fastening a necklace?  Those clasps with an opening smaller than a pin head are impossible to open and fasten!  If you're like me you've given up changing your neckwear jewelry to suit the occasion or clothing or even wearing it at all.  Not all of us have a handy friend to assist us.  In my case either my husband isn't around or if he is, he's inadept as much as I. 

Welcome to my favorite invention - The Clever Clasp!  The package comes with 2 pairs of silver tone and 2 pairs of gold tone magnetic fasteners.  These fasten onto the existing clasps, then close with a little twist.  Also included are several lengthening chains to add on to your necklace, should you want it longer.  Originally these sold for $20 on TV and in mail orders but now are reasonably and attractively priced at $9.95 at most discount and drug stores.

I have replace almost all my necklaces with Clever Clasps.  Although you could simply remove the Clever Clasp each time to change to another necklace, I prefer to keep these on to save time in removing, necessitating in buying 3-4 packages of Clever Clasps. One minor drawback I've found with these is the Clever Clasps are heavy, heavier than your original clasp, having the tendency to pull down (gravity) rather than staying on your neck where it belongs.  I wish the clasps could be smaller.  After all, the clasp is magnetic plus it screws close, so the larger size shouldn't be necessary.  If these could be just half the size, they'd be perfect.  But I still rate this product highly!  It's brought my jewelry out of the box again.  How can I not thank Clever Clasp for that?
