whenever I make jewellry, and i’ve made qutie a bit, the string always breaks, or the knots come undone, because the string is too thick, too thin, whatever. And wire never turns out right and always stabs into my skin so i can’t even wear the jewelry. Any and all suggestions are helpful! :)

I buy my jewelry from department stores like Macy and also places like Walmart. Over time some of these jewelry tarnish. I want to clean them using tarnish remover, but how do I know if the jewelry is made out of silver, brass, steel, or whatnot? Will a tarnish remover work on most of the jewelry pieces or will it ruin some of them? Thanks.
