I’m in the mood for a recycling project, and I know all of you will appreciate this one. Are you a container saver? I am. I can’t bear to throw out plastic that seems like it might have a good use. Michelle from Dilly Dally and Flitter has a ton of plastic containers, as you’ll see in her post. She also gives some fabulous tips on how she covered the weird roundy surfaces (technical term). Visit her here for the tutorial.
Update: Michelle’s blog is gone, but you can follow this tutorial to create similar results.

good to know there are more like me
I can’t seem to throw away a good container either …
I too save my containers, they are just too easy to reuse!
thanks for the link – I need to use some of my overexpanding paper supply!
I just modge-podged a bunch of containers & they look so cool. I even dig nice ones out of the recycling bin in my office lunch room!
¡Cuanto por aprender en tu blog!!
Muchas gracias ( =

These upcycled containers look great! I love making my own containers like this! I use my favorite patterend paper, that way I get to look at it every day!
Looks like the link no longer works, you need to be invited to view the blog
Sounds like a great idea to reuse all those containers!
