Blood-Sucking Seasoning Shakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Magnetic Vampire Salt and Pepper Shakers are Cute and Dark

— August 30, 2013 — Art & Design
For people obsessed with all things fantasy, the vampire salt and pepper shakers would make great additions to your kitchen.

These little shakers stand at four inches tall, and are a fun way to spice up your tableware. They are extremely cute, as they feature a blood-sucking couple. The Dracula-styled male, complete with the black collared cape, is attached to the woman's neck. The only way to separate these two dark lovebirds is to keep them far away from each other, as the shakers are actually magnetic. The man's lips are attracted to a little piece of metal on the pretty lady's neck.

While these might seem a bit morbid, it's obvious the hand-painted containers are in love. These salt and pepper conversation pieces should definitely be on display at your next soirée.
