The author reflects on inheriting their grandparents' complete dining room set and showcases feelings of neglect towards the seldom-used silverware. Inspired by Martha Stewart's silver polishing advice, they decide to clean the tarnished coffeepot with Wright's Silver Cream, adapting the polishing method for personal use. The author uses gloves, a terry cloth, and the recommended tools to restore their cherished silver pieces. This cleaning effort aims to make the silver accessible and presentable for special occasions, emphasizing a need to utilize inherited treasures rather than letting them remain forgotten.
Martha has been using Wright's Silver Cream for years as her go-to silver polish. Along with the silver cream, you'll need cloths, gloves, a soft moistened sponge or soft cloth, water, and dish soap.
So when I saw Martha Stewart's recommendation for polishing silver, I got inspired to get my special silver presentable for whenever we had a special occasion to celebrate next.
Martha lays down a terry cloth and polishes her silver in her sink, but I opted to set up a towel on the counter for my coffeepot.
Even sadder, I haven't used any of the silver other than the utensils in well over a decade because it's tarnished.
