Ok so last week I got a little carried away making salt cellars. I made 40… that means 40 bottoms, 45 tops… always make extra tops. So that is 85 pieces in one day. I figured they’re small, so no problem… but it’s the following days that I wish I didn’t make that many! The next couple of days was spent trimming all of them, and throwing a little knob on each top. Whew, next time I’m on a roll and really in the groove of throwing I’m going to think twice about making that many at once!

It looks like a totally sweet army.
but look how cute they all are! great photos of them, reminds me of the terra cotta soldiers
Wow…those will hold a lot of salt. And they look great, so I would say all that time trimming and throwing knobs was worth it.
The perfect salt cellar is in your muscle memory for life now
Yes Cindy, I’d say they are!
