  • Shake Your Thing

    I was looking through the Anthropologie website just browsing the beautiful kitchen items when I spotted these Dachshund salt and pepper shakers. They are adorable they remind me of my grandma’s dachshund, Penny. They had a variety of different shakers from the classic to Honey Bears and Penguins.
