Reusing Household Items

Plastic coffee canisters I use to keep flour, sugar, Bisquik mix, cornmeal, pasta and any other pantry item you can think of in.

Pour left over paint in them and when you need a quick touch up you can pour out as much as you need.



Editor's Note:
There are so many things you can do with these leftover canisters! Here are a few more:

- Keep in the car to put trash/litter in
- Decorate as a gift bag/box (think baked goods)
- Use it to store tools, small toys, or other odds and ends
