Default Plastic Jalapeņo Tubs into Storage containers

Hi,

I got these in work and thought they'd be perfect for storing all my sewing bits and pieces. I'm going to do more as I get them so I can have them on a shelf and make things easier to find. I'm also going to label them eg. Ribbons :)

The girls in work laughed at me but I'm happy enough with them :)

I used spray mount to stick fabric onto them and super glued on odd buttons and bits of ribbon. Padraig thought he'd be funny and stick his head in the first pic so I said I'd teach him a lesson by putting it up lol also it shows the size better lol

I spray painted the lids as I didn't like the colour.

Default tubs to storage

Love these, have a suggestion for you if you want it.

if you drill a small hole in the lid and attach via a screw to the Underside of a shelf - much easier to store and don't fall over on the shelf- just if you fancy it

Yup they're about a foot high and will be great for separating and sorting stuff, I keep asking customers if they want Jalapeņos to empty the tubs quicker lol I just need to get a new cartridge for my label maker and I'm sorted ;)
