For each one, first see if the holes in the sides of your ribbon spool are covered by the ribbon's labels. If so, use a pencil to poke through the label over 1 of the holes; if not, cover 1 hole with masking tape. -
Next, pour a handful of dried peas or beans into the spool through the open hole, then seal the hole with tape. -
Coat the shaker with acrylic paint, let it dry, then decorate it with colorful stickers.
