Description:

I saw the cutest little salt shakers at Wal-Mart that were just begging to be altered! Wouldn't they be sweet filled with bath salts...displaying the altered stick pins from the swap @Juliajae hosted...with wire tag/photo holders...as a tiny vase?

FUN STUFF: Alter ONE glass or plastic salt shaker for One partner. This is sender's choice, but it would be thoughtful to read your partner's profile for their fave colors. Including extras in the salt shaker is sure to bring a smile to your partner's face, but is not mandatory. We all have lots of "stuff", so this should not be an expensive swap to complete.

NOT SO FUN STUFF: Send something you're proud of and would be happy to receive. Just tying a ribbon on a salt shaker doesn't mean it's altered. Please send promptly and rate fairly.

Did someone tell you about my obsession with little salt shakers!?! I love them. Especially the unloved little singles at the thrift stores. With or without the cap they make the cutest little bud vases.

Hats off to Juliajae - I am obsessed w/ those little stickpins - they show up in alot of my swaps, thank you very much! For one swap, they were sticking out of a vintage shaker filled with old buttons! Heck, yes, I want to join this swap!
