Aged Silver ~

My BF gave me all this silver a few weeks ago and
it sat on my buffet just like this until I
could decide what I wanted to do with it~
doesn't it have the most gorgeous patina ~ I was inspired by Janis over at JunkDreams and I embellished a creamer and sugar. I love how they turned out ~ More silverware that I also embellished with words of inspiration~
Lots of crushed glass silver glitter ornaments that
I made to put in my booth.
I am loving silver with a time worn patina...
how about you? Blessings~

Hi Sandi,
The ornaments are beautiful! I love glass glitter and how it looks as it ages. I saw those embellished silver pieces at Junkdreams too and fell in love.
Hugs,

Hi Sandi... Love aged silver... Kinda glad i love it aged cause I don't like cleaning it.... I also love it for the holidays... Have a great day.

I have something similar sitting on my vanity too! I LOVE the embellishment...how did you do that? I'm sort of afraid to though, because from time I do like to shine up my silver and I tend to move things around from place to place....it might end up back in the dining room or maybe go someplace totally different!
Hugs, Leslie
