Today I made these super cute salt and pepper labels, aren't they fun!
I found these little shakers thrifting the other day (my sister in-law has similar ones) and I knew I wanted them for salt and pepper shakers. Too cute right?!
Here is what you need to make them:
- Clear Gloss Spray Paint
- Glue or Mod Podge
- Scissors
- Printer and Paper
Step One: Print out your labels and make sure they are sized correctly.
I found these shapes on the internet. Then picked a font I liked and wrote in Salt and Pepper.
Step Two: Cut out your labels and glue them on to your shakers or whatever you are labeling.
Step Three: Let them dry.
Step Four: Cover the tops with cling wrap and a rubber band before spraying.
Step Five: Spray the labels with your clear gloss.
Step Six: Let them dry again.
Step Seven: You're done, it's that simple and easy!
It's the little details that make my heart smile!
One last thing... the other day when I went thrifting I also found the most amazing floral tee-shirt. The thrift store had a sale going on, it was half off select clothing items in the store. The sign said it included blouses, shirts, sweaters and a few other things.
When I went to pay I noticed the lady didn't give me half off, so of course I said "oh you didn't mark it half off."
She proceeded to tell me that it isn't half off. Confused I look at the sign and say "isn't this a shirt?"
She says "no this is a tee-shirt."
We went back and forth for awhile and truthfully I got a little sassy with her.
I tried to understand but it made no sense, in the end I paid the full price and had to just let it go. How big of a deal could I make about $2 anyway...but it just felt so wrong.
In the end I still went home, stoked about my new shirt.
Hope you guys find some gems next time you're out thrifting!
