In the Spring I get a little project happy.
Up for sharing today, a silly little 5-minute thrift store do-over:
Kissy fish salt and pepper shakers.

Who wouldn't want their s&p poured out of a kissy fish head? I know I would.

you're so good and crafty. i wish i could see the potential in things while at the thrift store.
So cute!
I'll have to give it a listen.
I went to goodwill today for the first time in years. to shop for an eighties costume for YW tonight. And I spent $20!! (I bought a few skirts too) But I'm always jealous of people that find cool stuff in thrift stores for cheap. I just seem find dumb stuff for expensive. I love the fishies. I want to use them on food you make me sitting at a table in your house. Wouldn't that be grand? We've got to make it happen before you leave.
hee hee hee!!! I think I could do with a couple of kissy fish. Fab!
I bet they spout sea salt!! Ha, I'm so funny. Very cute. Did you have to use a fancy enamel paint or anything??
Let me tell you a little story! A while ago, over a year ago, you posted a story about salt and pepper shakers you bought and spray painted. It sparked a huge fire in me and I was off to thrift stores looking for things to spray paint. Since then I've had a whole new out look in the isles of my Goodwill stores.
Thrift stores and Etsy are about the only two places I shop any more for home wares. Delightful!
Kissy face fish! Love them!
R~
love the kissy faces! also, i have been a bit obsessed with the downton abbey series that played in the UK (i watched it thru netflix) and i am telling you- Mary, the main character, could be your sister! she looks so much like you and your girls, it's crazy. you will have to watch it if you get a chance. i think you would like the series besides;)
cute fish! so fun! changing up the table for cheap, look at you go!
i listened to your suggestion. loved it! made me think and made me appreciate the learning and growth of my children more.
thanks!!!
I love thrift stores too. And, yes, I think just about everyone wished they could get their salt and pepper out of a kissy fish.
I need to start going to thrift stores, the smell is funny though. Love the shakers and the radio segment sounds heartbreaking, yet inspiring.
love those lil fishies!! treasures abound in that red white n blue!!! we need to take a trip together sometime soon!!
thanks for the link to the radiolab...it was really interesting.
Love radiolab. Almost as much as This American Life.
