Welcome to the First Silver Sunday Blog Party

Welcome to the first "Silver Sunday" Blog Party hosted by Beth at The Gypsy Fish.



 Here are some of the first silver pieces I started collecting. The bottle and jar have sterling lids. The nut dish, the butter pats and the brush are also sterling. The tray is silver plate but it was a deal for $1.00 at the flea market. These are about the only sterling silver pieces that I have in my collection. Most of my silver is just old silver over copper, but I love it just the same. Actually I almost prefer it. And I'm not big on polishing my silver, I like the look of it when it's a bit tarnished with age.
Check out Beth's site for more participant's in The Silver Sunday Blog Party, and see all of their fabulous items. Just click on the title of my post above and it will take you to Beth's blog.
Happy Silver Sunday!!

  1. Sterling is so rich looking, the sterling silver really is a deeper luster than silverplate. Love your pieces.

  6. Love your silver and no matter tarnished or polished it is fabulous. Sterling does have a different look then silverplate, but it all shines so I like it!
