How To Make A Cheap And Simple
All it takes is one tablespoon each of salt, baking soda, and liquid dish soap,
dissolved in a cup of very hot water.
Line a small bowl with aluminum foil, pour in the solution,
then lay your tarnished jewelry directly on the foil.
In just five to ten minutes, the dull gray film begins to lift,
the metal brightens, and forgotten pieces look shockingly close to new.
This simple reaction between the foil, baking soda,
and tarnish pulls the discoloration away without scrubbing or scratching.
After soaking, rinse each item in cool water and dry gently with a soft cloth, watching the shine return as you wipe.
It’s gentle enough for gold-filled, brass, German silver, and sterling silver,
turning a viral Facebook tip into a tiny ritual of restoration—one bowl,
a few minutes, and jewelry you’re proud to wear again.
