Organizing 101: Don’t Throw These Away!

My baby girl is just starting to appreciate solid foods.  I went to throw away her Gerber baby food container yesterday when I had the thought “Wait a second!  This is as good as Tupperware!”  Perfect size for packing small snacks, dressings, or condiments in lunches!  And if they don’t come back to me…no biggie.  They also would work great for organizing small office items (paper clips, rubber bands, etc.) hair elastics and crafting items.  They would also work great for making individual lunch-size portions of jello!  Awesome.

And…if you don’t have a baby but love to organize small items you can usually find these empty and cleaned containers in bulk on Ebay for pretty cheap.

I'm six-foot tall mother of three and I'm enjoying the view! I'm currently fighting a battle with Lyme disease and am determined to come out victorious. I enjoy warm summer rain, peanut butter everything, having dance parties with my husband and kids, natural remedies and healthy living. Most days I'm just looking for another excuse to avoid the piles of laundry.

    Pacifier storage for the car, purse or diaper bag!

    how do you clean these? Most of mine have orange stains from the packaged baby food.

    These containers always leaked for me. I’d never use them to keep something liquid.

    I thought you were going to have a way of magically resealing them. Oh well. I did reuse them for jello after school. No way to seal them for school.m

    I used these wonderful containers to store thumb tacks, nails, paper clips, pins, snaps, safety pins, quilting pins, homemade freezer applesauce, peaches or veggies etc.
