Removing Tarnish from Sterling Silver

Has your sterling silver jewelry tarnished? It happens sometimes when you don't wear it that often.

Here's a tip.
1. Line a bowl or something with aluminum foil.
2. Put the jewelry in the covered bowl.
3. Cover the jewelry with baking soda.
4. Pour hot (not boiling) water over the baking soda to help it disolve.  (I used water from the coffeemaker.)

The chemical reaction will cause the baking soda to bubble and after doing this a time or two the tarnish will be gone.

5. Wash jewelry with cool water and dry. 

Voila!
