Hi there, I got about 15 new black empty VHS cases. I would love to do something with them...I don't have any small children in the house... I saw someone use it for crayons and pencils.. any ideas out there for me to use for a house full of grown ups?

If you are the type to hide a key outside, then glue the lid to the bottom of a stepping stone and then place away from the entry doors.

      @You're very welcome Isabel. I was hoping to think of ten, but I got stuck. LOL Glad you like them all. I like thinking "outside the box" and in this case, about what to put in it and how! :^)

    They always looked like books to me. Use hot glue to make spines on the edge, Mod Podge crumpled pieces of tissue paper on them, paint them then dry brush with black and put them on your bookshelf for "secret storage."

    I use them to store my extra hard drives and flash drives & computer cables in them. Use foam so they don't move. Safe hiding place.
