TIP OF THE DAY: Table Art
These hand-blown glass salt shakers come from GazelleGlass.com. |
From 18th-century to ultra-modern, sugar bowls, creamers, salt-and-pepper shakers and other accessories add personality to any table. Why not collect them and use a different one each month? They don’t have to match your dishes, they don’t take up much storage space and you can find them at yard sales. In fact, look for old-fashioned salt cellars for the newly-popular artisan salts. (Click here to see the many different kinds of artisan salt.) Let the kids make the monthly selection, and give them the job of switching over the sugar, salt and pepper on the first day of the month. | |
