The other day I heard somewhere a new way to clean the silver spoons or other silver items... Easy and eco friendly and not toxic for your health. You only need aluminium wrap, salt and hot water... If you have a small sink it will be the best or otherwise take a metal bowl, something which is big enough for your items that you want to get cleaned. The bowl has to resist boiling water, so no plastic containers...
First put one or two layers of aluminium wrap on the bottom and on the sides of you sink or bowl, then add few spoonfuls of salt. After that, put your items on the top of the salt like my spoons in the picture, them pore the boiling water over until your silver is completly covered. Try to mix the salt and the water with a help of an kitchen ustencil, don't burn yourself... Let it cool down and take a soft cloth and dry your silver carefully. If your silver was very dark it might need an other salt bath before you get it really shiny... Cheap, easy and eco friendly...
