Use Coffee Filters as Snack Holders

We use coffee filters for individual snack holders. They are cheaper than paper plates and soak up any grease. They work well for a movie night with popcorn. You can write fun messages or jokes on the bottom of the liner and when the snack is gone, they'll have something fun to read.

For those of us without dishwashers, and with several little mouths to feed, this is an especially nice idea! Solves the problem of eliminating germs. And a coffee filter is a very small item to dispose of.

Your creativity is great (do you have other posts on craft ideas or organization?) But for this posting, I wanted to note that in these times, we should be looking for less disposable methods of consuming. Using bowls or cups for snacks and plopping them into the dishwasher (which uses less water than hand-washing) is a better all-around method.
