Spray paint the whole outside in a background color you like. Using painters tape, tear pieces off and randomly place them all over. The edges should be jagged. Place as many as you want, wherever you want. Then spray paint the next color, cover entirely. After it is completely dry, carefully peel the tape pieces off. Clear coat to finish it off.

you can cover with a fun patterned contact paper and use for storage for your grandchildren or for yourself.

I use mine for dry pet food, fertilizer, dog treats, even large quantities of extra flour or sugar. They make great containers for kids building blocks and small toys, beach toys, etc. I even drill holes in the bottom and use them to cover frost sensitive plants in my garden when necessary.

Are you a knitter or crocheter? If so they are great for holding a skein of yarn. Simply cut a hole in the lid to feed the yarn through.

I took a bunch of my cat treat boxes to a rehab center I attend. We used Mod Podge and pieces of pretty paper to cover the boxes. They can be used for storage of small items or planters.

terrarium or goldfish tank

I use mine to hold my dog biscuits and chew treats in to keep them fresh! You could also use them to store dry goods in like flour, pasta, cereal, etc. in your pantry! Would make good storage for your grandchildren's smaller toys and keep them off the floor when not being played with.

I wish I were.... but thank you.

You can use these to put toys in that have lots of little parts...like legos. I also think you could fill it with something (like ping pong balls or candy) and have them guess how many are inside...then count them together!

Toy box, and fish tank are great ideas. Also, giant junk drawer, cords, blankets, sheets, rags, towels... Use empty peanut butter jars for clothes pin holders, leftovers, batteries, knives, forks, spoons, snacks, rolls of tape and glue, nail polish, yarn, thread, spare change, nuts, bolts, screwdrivers, wrenches, nails, pens, pencils, markers. You get the idea... For something that's free, they're amazing. They keep dust off of everything, they're unbreakable, airtight, and keep everything fresh, and in view.

Hello they might make an interesting toss game....smaller felt beanbags or other child friendly tossing items.

Please do not put goldfish in a cheeseball container. It's animal cruelty. Goldfish require a lot of water and maintenance.

Hi Ovr: You can fill them with items for the current holiday, like little plastic pumpkins and ghosts for Halloween (you can even cover it in white cloth and make a ghost) Christmas bulbs for Christmas. Put it on a plate, surround it with greenery and LED bulbs and Christmas balls and put some LED lights inside with the bulbs in the jar.

Hello Mrs. L, this sounds like a chance to have a "creative party" with your grandchildren. Why not get some craft paints, brushes, sponges, papers, etc. and let the children decorate their own container as they want. You'll be amazed at the ideas they come up with...maybe provide them with a few ideas to get them started. They can take their personalized container home with them to prize in their own room. Have fun!

Cover with Contact to hold bits & Bobs or leave clear for sweeties. Cover in fabric and trim. Make into Faces or Gnomes or Gonks, Soldiers, Dolls etc.

Hello, hope this inspires you.

1. Lantern: Clean the container, add rope, and insert a flameless candle or solar light. You can also create a small dip at the top of the container to insert a wooden dowel or straw with string lights.
2. Rustic barrel: Spray paint the container, and decorate with Mod Podge Cinnamon.
3. Recycled craft: Use the container for crochet or other recycled crafts
