Of course, I bought some Halloween cottons.

And I found the most bat-tastic salt and pepper shakers:

Unfortunately, the "tree" is not very sturdy. When you take one bat off, the tree falls over, taking the other bat with it. :P If I want to actually use the shakers, I'll need to anchor the tree to something heavier.
Where did you get those salt and pepper shakers?
ReplyDeleteOops, meant to put that in! I bought them at a Jo-Ann store.
DeleteBaaaats... WAAAANNNNT...
ReplyDelete::Staggers out door heading toward Jo-Ann's with coupons in hand::
they are cute, hope you got some :)
DeleteI love that Jo-Ann coupons are so readily available. I rarely buy anything without one. :)
DeleteThose bat salt and pepper shakers are really lovely! Sometimes (every year around Halloween) I wish I lived in the states. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteHalloween is the one time of year I'm thankful for the commercial behemoth that is U.S. retail.
DeleteOooh nice fabrics! Good colours too! Purple!
ReplyDeleteThe bat shakers are great. It's not usual to see bat merchandise made hanging upsidedown so it is very original looking!
Yay, purple! :)
DeleteIndeed. I thought it was a clever design, having the bats hanging upside down. Too bad the accompanying tree is flimsy!
I have the fabric in the upper left in several different colors. I think i am going to make a tiered skirt.
ReplyDeleteI am srsly coveting those salt and pepper shakers.
Ooh, good idea, a tiered skirt! :D
DeleteAwesome find.
ReplyDeleteAnd a lucky one, as they were hidden way on the back of a bottom shelf.
DeleteOooo.
DeleteOooooooh I GOTTA get my butt to JoAnne's post-haste!
ReplyDelete:) I think the shakers are available on their website also.
DeleteI saw the shakers yesterday, and had to talk myself down. The cat would only break them.
ReplyDeleteAdmirable willpower!
