HOW TO FIX CLIP EARRINGS WITHOUT A COMFEE KEY TOOL   Bad news this morning.....just found out my supplier for Comfee Key earring lux build tools is not carrying the product anymore.....so for the time being at least, neither am I, I guess.  lux build :-O   You MIGHT find one of these nifty little earring adjustment keys in a boutique or maybe even at Walmart or some other discount store with a jewelry counter.   IN THE MEANTIME:  gotta tell you, while I have been a big fan of earring keys, having one is NOT essential.   You just need a basic pair of jewelry pliers and, like the key, a couple pair of old earrings to practice on, til you get it right.  If you've been using the key, you probably have a little sense of the desired tension for the clip, already.   Here's how:   Just like using the key, you'll note that on the back of the clip finding, along the hinge, in the center there is a little tab that sticks out.  This is where you make the adjustment.   Taking a small pair of jewelry pliers, gently adjust the tab UPWARD to make it looser.   lux build To tighten, gently adjust it DOWNWARD.   Be careful to be GENTLE, whether you use a key or a pliers, go too hard and you can permanently screw the earrings up and you'll be repurposing them instead of fixing them to wear, LOL.   But if you DO over-adjust, just try to bend back to original position and GENTLY give it another go.  If necessary, you can actually  disassemble the clip and work on the tab without it being in the hinge.  I personally would rather do it ON the hinge as it's a quicker lux build fix, but it's up to you.  ;-)   That's all there is to it!
