Thread: inexpensive kitchen items

Tweet

I like to keep salt/pepper shakers and napkins out on my table at all times. I didn't like my everyday ones so I threw together these out of cheap Dollar Tree and Dollar General items.
The headstones will be glued to a black piece of wood for stability and I might use the same style front and back but for now you get the picture
The skulls are a hollow plastic with tiny holes drilled in the top. The bottom of the skulls already have a small hole so I enlarged it and used a set of plugs from another salt/pepper set I have. You can also tell the skulls come in two different shades so that you can tell the salt from the pepper.
All this is sitting on a tray sold at WalMart for $4.00 if I remember correctly. Link to pics below!

Nice job. Very festive

What a creative idea--I love it!

Those are great!
