You say, "when done..." Will it be obvious?

chocake2: She came back with ... a very tarnished silver fruit/bread basket !?... That cracked me up. It's one of those things people give at weddings when they want to gift something really nice but don't know the happy couple all that well. ... So, now we have one very posh remote holder. LOL

Great find! I'll be happy to take it off your hands if you get tired of polishing it. :) My husband offered to polish some of my silver jewelry this weekend so that I could wear it out to my company's Winter Ball. I have no idea why... Maybe he was worried about running out of time? Anyway, I couldn't believe my ears. Happily took him up on it. He decided afterward that we should "take it somewhere to have it professionally polished" in the future. Lol.
MNnancy:You say, "when done..." Will it be obvious?
Yes Nancy, it will almost be instant. I never researched what the combination of salt, baking soda and aluminum foil will do with your silver over time but I've been doing it for years with my silverware.
