I had planned for this to be a relatively simple project but as usual, it mushroomed. This is an insanely fun challenge - to use packaging in your project. I cut a circle out of acrylic clamshell packaging and made a shaker out of it.
This is special to me - my friend Rebecca went on an awesome vacation that included a trip to Iceland. She knows I love all things science, so she brought a little bag of Icelandic volcanic soil back for me. Swoon! I had to have an amazing way to preserve this gift!
So, the pumice soil is the 'shaker' part of this tag. This will be added to an art journal page at some point to document just how special her gift made me feel. Thanks for checking it out!

Good for you! I was hoping someone would make a shaker. I love the sentiment the mostest, and I love that this has special 'sentimental' meaning for you too!
