She doesn't even pull out the small ones, just gives the a fluff, kind of like tossing a salad, LOL and drops them in. Then adds a coordinating ribbon or rick rack to an appropriate place on the jar and they are really just cute and pretty and fun. I had some old glass salt and pepper shakers that were my grandmothers and I keep changing out the scraps for newer ones as I choose.

I think that's enough for now.
