CQ: How many salt and pepper shakers do you have and why? I have about 60 sets of salt and pepper shakers. As I see sets that I am attracted to, I buy them. They do not have to have a particular theme.
CQ: What draws you to a particular piece? In the beginning, I was buying shakers that were representative of particular products that were commercialized on TV or in advertising. Now, I will buy anything that just appeals to me.
CQ: Where do you get most of your finds? My husband likes to go to flea markets to look for his clocks, and I would see salt and pepper shakers that I liked, and would purchase them. Also, when we would be on vacation, I would look for shakers in that place where we visited. However, I won't not buy sets that had the name of the city or state on them. Enjoyed my profile?
