Easy diy Valentine salt and pepper shakers

Hi there! Hope all is well. I told you the other day I was in Valentine crafting mode already.  Apparently a lot of  you want to see it early.  I did a survey on my facebook page and gave y’all a choice of things I could share.  This is what you wanted, and this is what you get!

Today, I am sharing  easy diy Valentine salt and pepper shakers.  Over the Christmas season when I made those cute little Snowmen salt and pepper shakers little did I know they would be such a hit.  I had several people even make their own edition of them.  Considering, I am in the Dollar tree just about every other day I picked up another two pack for a buck and figured I would whip up some  easy Valentine salt and pepper shakers.

I apologize in advance but I sort of stopped mid way snapping photos of the project.

Believe me, verbally telling you most of it should not be difficult to follow.

First, I painted the salt and pepper shakers with  two coats of chalky paint.  I told you a while back you can now find that paint at Michael’s, Home depot and a reader just told me Hobby lobby carries it now. Cool, you can use your coupon and get it even cheaper!  They have a lot of pretty colors to choose from.  I went with this pretty purple you see called remembrance.  It’s such a pretty shade of lavender.

After I gave them two coats of chalky paint, I let them completely dry  and added these pretty sparkly dollar tree stickers. They come in a big pack with a variety of hearts and different sizes. Dollar tree is already getting in their Valentine’s decor so I would act fast to grab some up.

The cute little heart beads are actually necklaces sold at the dollar tree in a pack.  Quite a few come in a pack so you will see these in the future scattered about.

I snipped them to wrap around the neck of the salt and pepper shakers.

I would say these are my Bohemian salt and pepper shakers.  They look pretty mod!

    you come up with such great ideas. I just love those.
    I have a question for you about the chalk paint, hope you can help.
    What is the trick to get out the ugly brush strokes on your project??? I had this bright (??) idea to paint one of my little windows in my kitchen with chalk paint and then I want to do this really neat rooster stencil on it after it had cured. But now the problem I have is those crazy brush strokes. I can’t seem to get a smooth finish. Help!!!!!!
    What brand of chalk paint are you using??? Is it the Anne Sloan, or Deco art??
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

      Hi Deborah, For this project I used Deco art. However, I have used Annie Sloan. What I have found with most chalk paint you do tend to get the brush strokes. I just take my brush or better yet on the window, try using a sponge brush and go in on direction. Make sure you do at least two coats. Chalk paint is not intended for that perfect look. Most of the time it is used on furniture and followed up using the wax and distressing. Hope that helps some. I did a window a last year and it still hangs in my kitchen. In fact, I did roosters too! Cheers.
