SALT AND PEPPER SHAKERS


My grandmother collected a few salt and pepper shakers.  My mother added to the collection when it was passed down to her.  When I received some of the shakers, I was struck with the idea of getting enough sets to have one for 12 place settings...all in nature related theme!  I am a bird lover, so I started building on the tiny Japanese birds on the left, that Grandma Mary gave me, and the German Ducks front and center that Grandma Rosey gave me.  I added a set of quail, the mushrooms, and Mom's strawberry shakers.  Collecting is so much fun! I have only found 1 pickle, though...maybe I will put Garlic Salt in it!
