What can be done with desiccant canisters?
+6
My latest medication comes with these desiccant canisters. I've been saving them all but I don't know if they can be re-used in any way. Any ideas?

I have read you could use the desiccant to dry flowers although I have not tried. I use tiny baggies that buttons come in and little canisters like these for jewelry findings or beads.

Desiccant is used to control or eliminate moisture from damaging whatever they are put with. Control the moisture and you control the possibility of mildew. I use these in my storage totes for the Christmas stuff or Totes of clothing I need to store. Don't let pets or children get ahold of them!

I have used them to help dry out my cell phone when I accidentally thrown it in the water.

These can also be used as the core of beaded beads. You can also put them in containers or baggies with your sterling silver to slow tarnish from forming.
