Can you tell what this is?
We found this cute salt and pepper shaker set a few years ago and I realized I had never shared. We don't use them, but I think they're so cute.
No wonder we bought them, huh? But we're not in Wisconsin right now, we're traveling through the warmer weather of Florida - ah, sunshine, at least I hope the sun is shining. My husband is taking me swimming with the manatees for my birthday. :0) I'm a wee bit excited! Since we're traveling this post was prepared before we left, I sure hope it publishes without a hitch.
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. Don't forget to visit each other. :)
Those are adorable! Could be mistaken for their larger relatives...
ReplyDeleteDo enjoy that warmer weather and have lots of fun! PS It's 3ยบ up here tonight.

Cool shakers! I love cute S & P shakers :) Like the photos of 'em too!
ReplyDeleteI would have never guessed what the first close up was of! So fun to see life in a unique way when we see up close!
ReplyDeleteYour title was a dead giveaway Lisa. Neat little (they look small) salt and pepper shakers. Hmm why not pepper and salt shakers? I like the grinders especially for pepper. Ah the aroma of fresh ground pepper!
ReplyDeleteGreat closeups!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time swimming with the manatees and Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!!! Enjoy your holiday ....
ReplyDeleteI could tell it was a salt/pepper shaker in the opening shot, but not that it was such an elaborate one!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a positively grand time with the manatees, and for your big day in general. Sorry I've been MIA for so long, but even though I try to take one day at a time, lately several days have attacked me at once.
very interesting shakers
ReplyDeleteVery cute little shakers! I like the photo too.
ReplyDeleteA perfect macro. I could not tell what it was until I saw the second one :-)
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying perfect weather, out of all the snow farther north. I love your little shakers. Someone went to all that trouble to craft them.
ReplyDeleteThey are adorable and I am JEALOUS that you're going swimming with manatees.
ReplyDeleteOf course I would have never guessed, lol ! but these are really cute !
ReplyDeleteThese are cute, but I'd be really careful about trying to brew coffee in them! ;)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely adorable - happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteThese pieces are exquisite! The attention to detail in crafting them is amazing! Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteLovely pieces and shots!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little treasure this is! Precious!
ReplyDeleteThose are really cute! Very interesting the combination of teapot-like-shape and the Indian-head motif.... Wonderful photos, Lisa! Happy Week :o) ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip! I love those shakers. They are cute.
ReplyDeleteYup ... they're nifty and I would have been tempted to buy them as well. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! (methinks today's the day) Hope you're enjoying sunshine and that you get to swim with the manatees ... that is so KEWL ;-)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Oh, aren't they sweet? I love them! I'd probably have bought them too, even though I've never even been to Wisconsin!
ReplyDeleteVery cute set indeed and still in great condition.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you. May you be blessed with great health, love and joy.
Those are really neat!
ReplyDeleteI think you will love swimming with the manatees. I hear it is wonderful!
Florida? Does that mean you were at the Super Bowl???
ReplyDeleteThese shakers are a great find!
I'm in Northern IL and we're bracing for another winter storm coming in tonight. You are so lucky to be warm and having fun in the sun. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteHow fancy! And I'm glad you are in warm Florida swimming with manatees!!! I can't wait to see those photos!
ReplyDeleteIf that is a salt shaker, where is all the caked on salt around the holes? Or is that just at my house?
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute! Love em :-)
ReplyDeletethe manatees are so lovely. they nibble toes...in a nice way. they are harmless.
