Corelle Coordinates Shadow Iris Salt and Pepper Shaker Set
Customer's Reviews:
The salt and pepper shakers are lovely, nice fit in the hand, but the holes are TOO BIG! I was constantly having to warn the user to be careful of over-salting or over-peppering their food. Finally, I taped over half of the holes on each shaker so an "over-doing-it warning" is no longer necessary.
