Need an easy and inexpensive Christmas ornament for a gift, your tree, or even as a decoration on a gift? I will teach you how.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Christmas salt and pepper shakers
  • Ribbon
  • Scissors
  1. Step 1

    Purchase your salt and pepper shakers.

  2. Step 2

    Remove the plug on the bottom of the shakers and cut ribbon to twice the length of the shaker.

  3. Step 3

    Thread the ribbon through two holes in the top of shakers and pull the ends out the bottom.

  4. Step 4

    Tie a know in the ribbon and put it back inside the shaker and replace the plug.

  5. Step 5

    Pull the ribbon up from the top for the hanger. You have just made an ornament!

Tips & Warnings
  • Buy your salt and pepper shakers from yard sales, dollar stores and thrift stores to save money.
  • They do not have to be in sets as different styles look great together.
  • Decorate a gift with one of these ornaments rather than putting a bow on it.
  • Decorate a mini tree in your kitchen or put one on your dining room table.
