Make Something Monday: Repurpose Household Containers & Jars!
Monday, December 01, 2008 Posted by Jolly Mom
So, as you can see from the picture below, I collect containers of any type. I collect coffee cans, jelly jars, Pringles cans...if it's a container of some sort, I probably hoard it! Mike laughs at me all the time because I get upset when someone tries to throw away one of my containers. He jokingly says that he is very lucky because there are worse things I could collect other than garbage (as he calls it)-like diamonds! Anyhow, I love using my stash of containers for all sorts of things. One way I use them is as flower vases. I line either the outside or inside with paper or fabric, attach a ribbon, and then fill with flowers!

What a fantastic idea! I am bad to save containers too, but limit myself to the jars. Otherwise I would have to rent a storage building for all the containers! I would've never know that there was a pringles can under there! So creative and a great recycling project!

That is so wierd that you collect containers because I collect tins..more specifically advertising tins...I have so many that I've lost count...very cool that I found someone else who shares one of my many passions!
