If you have a baby in the home, keep the plastic gerber food containers and use them to organize your home. They can hold toothpicks, pins, nails, screws, corn cob holders or pretty much anything that you could imagine.

They are also great for trips or vacations because you can pack q-tips, cotton balls or other supplies in them and label the items too. You will find that they are easy to store in small places because they are flat on the top and oblong in shape, which allows them to stack neatly.

Your husband will also want them for sorting the screws, nails, washers, nuts etc; keeping the tool area neater too and they can be marked on the outside so guessing what is inside becomes easy.

Enjoy the tip and organizing will become easier, even for new parents.

Baby food now comes in plastic rectangular containers. These make great little reusable containers to pack in lunches! Perfect for raisins, dipping sauce, salad dressing the list goes on and on. If you don't have a baby, you can get them from friends or buy them and eat the baby food or use in cooking breads and cakes. For .98 for two it's still cheaper than buying those small throw away containers.

RE: Reusing Plastic Baby Food Containers

I LOVE these too! I make baby food and freeze it in them. I have used the same ones over and over again! (11/03/2004)

RE: Reusing Plastic Baby Food Containers

I use mine!! Use for condiments when packing lunches or going on picnics.

So handy these little containers are!!! And they seal up so easy! People are even requesting me to save some for them when the baby food is out! Have even used them for storing items in....such as paper clips/tacks/nails---keeps them better organized!! (08/08/2006)

You can also get them from your local Freecycle email group. www.freecycle.org (11/16/2007)

RE: Reusing Plastic Baby Food Containers

I use them to organize my beading supplies - I took heavy duty velcro and stuck it to the bottom so I can stick them to the inside of an old laptop case and carry my supplies when I go to teach classes.

They are also great for packing jewelery or hair accessories for travel - (11/17/2007)
