That's when I thought, well heck if I'm going to just throw it away, why not let the vinegar and baking soda soak for a few hours (something you probably wouldn't want to do to Grandma's silver, ha) and when I started scrubbing, more stuff came off. So this is the end result. <br /><br />It is a pretty piece, not real silver of course but still real silver plate and I just like the ornate design, it's a neat contrast to the farm house. But more on that when I get it put on the coffee table.1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-6738235280585567102012-04-27T17:06:23.596-05:002012-04-27T17:06:23.596-05:00wonderful find!wonderful find!Jenny Rottingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559432369642740389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-88802965273395206212012-04-27T15:47:12.848-05:002012-04-27T15:47:12.848-05:00So pretty!
