Dollar Tree Is Selling The Cutest Spring Kitchen Essential That's Being Snapped Up Fast

With Easter just around the corner, do you have some fun tablescape ideas for your springtime family meal? If not, and if you have a spare $1.25, hurry to Dollar Tree, which is selling the cutest set of themed salt and pepper shakers that are being snapped up fast. These kitchen essentials will bring lots of smiles to your mealtime.

TikTokers are all abuzz about the pairs of pastel-decorated Easter egg shakers, but what's stirring up even more enthusiasm is the bunny-carrot combo. A white ceramic rabbit shaker and an orange and green carrot top shaker are adorable enough to stand in as functionless decorations, particularly in cottagecore kitchens. If you need help justifying this budget purchase, remember they'll come in handy as your guests season their asparagus.

Dollar Tree's Easter-Themed Ceramic Salt and Pepper Shakers are available only in stores, so don't delay! Scrounge up another five quarters to purchase both the bunny-carrot pair as well as the egg pair. Your guests won't have to pass the salt or pepper too far if you cute-ify your spread with two sets.

If you decorate your home for Easter, the four designs included in both sets of shakers can definitely hold their own as seasonal accessories. Their miniature shapes fit well into Easter décor for small spaces. Tuck them onto shelves, next to the TV, or let them brighten up your mantel.

Risk-taking readers, with the right precautions, may be able to expand the use of these shakers by converting them into bud jars or vases. While thin enough stems might slide into the holes atop each shaker, freeing up a space for any flower or a mini bouquet has major cuteness potential. You may want to experiment with this idea on a set of thrifted shakers you're not in love with, or perhaps purchase an extra set of Easter shakers in case of accidents.

Place a strip of painter's tape over the holes on the top of your shaker. Wet the surface, and use a small diamond-tipped drill blade to make a decent pilot hole over the existing holes. If this works, try a larger diamond-tipped bit to create an opening wide enough for at least one stem. You can also keep the area you're drilling cool by submerging the shaker in water as you drill. In the worst case scenario, your shattered shaker pieces can become part of a cheerful springtime mosaic.
