Copy Cat Christmas Ornaments

I'm participating in Debbiedoo's Holiday Knock-off Party tonight.


Last Friday I went to Matilda's Mouse, our once-a-month antique barn sale in the area.  My girlfriend's and I LOVE to check out their latest finds.  I was specifically searching for tiny salt and pepper shakers in order to copy these adorable Pinterest ornaments for my kitchen tree.

I found a set of four salt and pepper shakers and whipped up the quick little project.




 I think they might need some glitter inside them.  I have one more to do, so we'll see how they end up.

Where did you find such a tiny little tree? Is it alive and in a pot? it's so cute! I would love to have small and real, themed trees around the house. Just haven't found any.

I adore anything using tiny bottles, and your ornaments are so cute! I am pinning this right now! I used pretty small bottles, hung them with green slender ribbon from the chandelier, and filled them each with a small bay leaf branch from my tree. Thank you so much for visiting my blog, and glad you liked the red ice skates project!

Now....those are just adorable. And I bet some silver glitter inside or fake snow would be really cute. I make tassels from old figural salt and pepper shakers and have been collecting so I can make some after Christmas. Enjoy the season. xo

These are SO cute! Putting glitter inside the little shakers would make them even more sparkly and festive. Love this idea.
