I love vintage. Maybe it’s because I am vintage. I thought it would be fun to share items from my personal collection here at Jotter Girl. Yesterday I made myself a homemade light box for photographing my art work. I tested it out on these salt & pepper shakers so they will be the first entry in “My Vintage”. Since I don’t know the history of most of my vintage items, howsabout I just make something up?
Salt Silencer
Thelma detested Mrs. Tuttle, her neighbor upstairs. The constant noise above, drove Thelma to became desperate to eliminate the “problem”. She purchased a darling little pair of salt and pepper shakers as a gift for Mrs. Tuttle’s 65th birthday. Three days later, upstairs became wonderfully quiet, which was when Thelma knew that the arsenic mixed with the salt must have done the trick.

I am a lover of vintage too. The salt and pepper shakers are lovely.
PS…Nothing says “Happy Holidays,” like a post about MURDER!!
I know! I thought the same thing. How could these pretty little shakers trigger a story of Murder?
Even your diabolical side makes me laugh!

I love that you think I am diabolical.
