| Christmas Cheer Shakers
Just when we should feel most blessed The holidays can make us stressed. When the crabbies start coming near, Sprinkle your self with Christmas cheer! (sprinkle on others as needed) (Do not open) That is the label I put on mine. I can't find my directions but you get clear see thru salt shkers and put all kinds of little Christmas related item in it like a small piece of cinnamon, bells, tiny candy cnes etc. A little sparkle of some kind and a jingle bell. I made sure the top wouldn't open by glueing it on, Then I tied a ribbon around it. I recently saw where some one called them something like Humbug Chsers with similar poem.
