What to Do With Those Swiffer Containers?

Easy
I am not a big fan of the Swiffer, but my husband likes to use them. I know I can recycle the plastic container, but I found another use for it.
While organizing my bathroom, I needed a container to store all of my skin products. Unable to find the right basket, the Swiffer container caught my eye. Perfect size, just not very attractive. So I sprayed painted it.
After the paint dried, I tore pieces of paper a using Mod Podge, adhered them to the sides and around the bottom edges.
Now it holds my products. I usually keep it under the cabinet, but it looks good on the counter as well.
Enjoyed the project?

Have a question about this project?
I agree they can serve a multitude of purposes but wonder if anyone has done anything with their lids or lids from store bought containers?
