I've seen something about using baking soda and lemon juice but it's not working. I have one tarnished Christmas ornament. Is there anything I can do with baking soda, vinegar, borax, lemon juice, salt, or anything like that so I don't have to buy silver polish?

Toothpaste cleans silver. Don't recommend baking soda, scratches silver. Lemon juice and salt work on brass. I'll bring the champagne/beer, my silver things and silver polish - we'll have a polishing party.

Lay a piece of tin foil at the bottom of your sink and put the silver on it. Pour in 2 cups of baking soda and then pour in a kettle of really hot water. Silver should come clean on its own as long as it has contact with the tin foil.
