Does anybody else dislike the look of tarnished earrings? I'm talking about the pseudo-silver kind you get at Wal Mart and similar places, that lose their silver sheen and turn a dull coppery color after a few years. (If they are real silver, in which case the tarnish will appear black rather than copper/brownish, just rub them with white vinegar and baking soda and they'll be as good as new.)
But there seemed to be no hope for the fake silver kind, until I decided to try giving them a second life with nail polish. Just detach them from their hooks, paint on both sides with a color you like (allowing to dry between sides,) and reattach carefully.
So now they are green - sort of like tarnished copper. :-)
