Gilmer Gal on Jan 06, 2015I've seen on Pintrest a cute canister set with painted plastic coffee cans. Paint any color and stick a chalkboard sticker on it to identify the contents. Great for your pantry!Helpful Reply

Leah Johnson on Jan 06, 2015there is so many things that these coffee containers can be used for.. Maxwell house are a blue/green and the labels come off with a bit of soaking.. if nothing else see if there is a recycling establishemtn in your town.. ours takes quite a few things like this and recycles the glass- plastic- pop bottles, aluminum cans etc.. and the intial cost is minimal and they pick up once a week- furniching a large dispasol ..without extra cost to you if you use their garbage disposal service...Helpful Reply

Brenda Pippin on Jan 09, 2015You can also use the coffee cans to get rid of your deep fryer grease, or fruit & veggie peels. pour or put it in the can, put the cover on and put it in a small bag and throw it in your trash canHelpful Reply

Sue Peet on Feb 11, 2015My husband uses them for holding many things in his workshop like loose hardware, bolts, screws, things like that. Its also good for putting fruit and vegetable scraps in to go into the compost pile. You can store packets of seeds in them. What about small craft supplies. Just think about what little items you have around the house that could go into them.Helpful Reply

Rebecca Dawn Davies-Kleitz on Sep 25, 2015I'm thinking of using all of mine as planters. I'm going to get some spray paint and paint them(not sure of the color, yet), and then plant miniature roses and other small plants in them. I also use them to stash stuff--all manner of stuff. Thread, buttons, nuts and bolts, art supplies, just all kinds of stuff that I really don't have any other place for!Helpful Reply
