Upcycled Plastic Containers

I’ve got a fabulous upcycle that I can’t believe I haven’t thought of sooner!

Do you have plastic containers that you throw away on a regular basis?  Well, first of all – you can recycle those bad boys but you can also upcycle them.

Start using them to store items in your pantry.  The possibilities are endless.  I started with using three to hold rice, cereal, and pasta.  As I get more, I will use them to store oatmeal, sugar, flour, and pretty much anything that will fit.  They’re great for keeping things organized in your pantry and the plastic containers make it easier to pour.

And a useful tip – remove the sticky residue left from the label with rubbing alcohol.
