It is not that I have many silver items in my house. Not at all I would say. Just 4 and those are on the photo in this article.
The little pig was a gift for the customers of the company I work for (although the company has now different owners),
The other three items have more value to me. They belonged to my mother and I can remember that they were gifts for mothers day. So yes, they are kinda special to me.
Now I have been told that it not good to polish silver too often. So in that way I am taken really good care of my silver things. I mean, when I walked this afternoon through my living room I suddenly noticed that they were not shiny any more, but looked really grey. I realized that this was moment to polish them.
I can remember that my mother always used something called “Silvo” to polish her silver. So I went to the local supermarket and to my pleasant surprise this silver polish is still available.
I also can remember that this silver polish had a very strong scent. So I decided to do the polishing on my balcony and that was a good decision, because the scent was everything but pleasant.
Now, 30 minutes later, the silver statues are all bright and shiny again!
But I am very afraid that somewhere in the future there will be a day that I suddenly wonder when these silver statues all turned grey instead of shining brightly!
Ehmmm Rob, if you ever feel the need to polish some more silver, you are welcome at our house. You will not be finished within 30 minutes :-).
And when you are done I think my mother would love it when you would help her with the silver in her house!
How about a nice and friendly “Dream on”!
Do you really think I really like polishing that much?
As if we have that much silver….. Ahum 🙂
