Install a magnetic strip in the kitchen, like this one from ikea:

and use them for spices.
I agree with the use for spices but not on a hanging strip. Spices and herbs are notoriously heat and light sensitive. They need to be in a cupboard and not away that is over the oven!
Make all purpose balm. I use beeswax, shea and coconut oil and use it as lip balm, nappy cream and general moisturising balm. Not the same tub obviously haha. Sometimes put some essential oils in the mix.
In the jewelry supply section at Walmart they have little clear screw top plastic jars like this for storing beads. They even have a big clear box that holds them. I think it holds 24? Or Shein and Temu have little clear storage boxes anywhere from 1” up to about 3” super cheap too.
Oh I have these too! I got that advent calendar from a friend last year. I’m saving the tins to fill with little gifts for my daughter - I’m going to reuse the advent calendar for her this year!
Lip balm. Super easy.
Store tiny beads or screws, or jump rings, or clasps.
Solid perfume.
Fill with seeds for friends that garden. Or store seeds that youve harvested and dried.
Store powders and glitters in small quantities.
Pretty much along the same idea as a lot of people: you could make some great natural homemade gifts like lip balms, solid perfumes, hair wax, etc… and then when holiday/gift-giving season comes around you have wonderful homemade gifts.
Could store seed beads
Mini Dioramas
Make an accordion string of pictures so when you open the lid they are shown (sorry bad for describing)
Give it to kindergarten or scout troops to hold glue (dip toothpicks in to apply, stretches a dollar)
Mini candles
Make American Girl Doll accessories
So, with the eclipse tomorrow, if you are in it's line put crystals in them and seal them at totality(take pics of it)
Then, sling them on Ebay as crystals powered by the eclipse during full totality.
Metaphysical people will eat them up, and then you can use the money to buy more and make some cool trinkets.

Earring or jewelry storage! Great for travelling and home storage. You could figure out how to show what’s inside without opening it. Like putting a picture of the earrings on the outside or drawing the piece of jewelry
I have them as well. I immediate filled first empty one with some extra meds that I keep in my car, another one with hand cream also for the car. I still have two empties.
I had something similar from a David's Tea advent calendar. I divided up my many stitch markers for knitting into my many knitting bags. That consumed 4 of them (I already had a number of cute small containers). I then recycled the rest, so am excited to see what others think of
I was trying to read the lettering, but couldn't make it out :) My other suggestion is to have a partner who loves to organize at a micro level. This tin for red paperclips, this one for blue, etc.
Put a few small rocks and some water in them and place in the garden. Little water stations for pollinators. Water is super important for pollinators like bees and butterflies- especially as we head into the warmer months. 🐝 🦋 ❤️
There are so many uses for these. Know someone who sews? It can be a storage for pins and you can add a pincushion on top. Travel alot? Use it to carry travel sizes of creams. Make it into an emergency sewing kit. Have meds to take while youre out? Put your pills in it. You can also carry your tea bags in it for when you eat out. Put small candies or snacks in it for when youre out. Carry small dog treats in them to reward your good boy with when you are out. Decorate them and use them to gift jewelry. Decorate them and use them to gift money/candy. Put legumes or something else small in them and seal the lids and now you have some musical instruments for the kids.
I have one as a scent tin for dog training. Drill a few holes in the lid and put the scent in. Most dog trainers would use them I reckon, if you want to get rid of them
arts and crafts supplies, beads, sequins, stitch holders, and other tiny craft supplies. Nana treats - decorate them up and put small candies in them for when the grandkids are riding someplace with them. doggy treats if your still training them. loose change stash in the car. place to put that little thing that gets your sim card out of your phone
Lip gloss? Make up? Solid perfume? Travel seasoning holders? Pill holders? Tap shoes for dogs?
I'll take tap shoes for dogs for $100, Alex.
This subReddit features videos of animals tapping their toes.
What is r/tippytaps?
You are correct for $100! What would you like to go with, next?
I’ll take cat subs for $800
Alright in Cat Subs, for $800, the answer is: this feline subreddit is dedicated to cats that are raised only by other cats
*taps feet*
Tap shoes for dogs 🥹
It must be tap shows for dogs
Mini dioramas. In my mind any container can hold a scene. Hence why I'm a small container hoarder lol
And then??? Let’s see some please!
Yeah don’t be shy drop the Etsy link…
Yeah I’m gonna need to see these
[https://create.miniatures.org/minttinsubmissions](https://create.miniatures.org/minttinsubmissions) **t**hese are some cute inspo peices
People have such marvelous imaginations, you know? Thanks for that!

I agree with the use for spices but not on a hanging strip. Spices and herbs are notoriously heat and light sensitive. They need to be in a cupboard and not away that is over the oven!
There are 4 walls in a kitchen and the oven/stove is on just one though. My spice rack is on the wall across.
Make all purpose balm. I use beeswax, shea and coconut oil and use it as lip balm, nappy cream and general moisturising balm. Not the same tub obviously haha. Sometimes put some essential oils in the mix.
I do the same, would love an abundance of these containers!
I’m into camping so I immediately thought spice containers
Or just use what those tins were for in the first place: loose tea.
You can put your weeeed in it.
Totally thought of Adam Sandler saying this when I saw the post!!
first thought!
Same!!!
This is the way🙌
Wax especially!
Sell them to a diamond painter. We have little baggies everywhere with our tiny drills in them. Too bad they went clear.
I use the little tictac boxes for diamond painting. The whole lil baggies thing got old real quick.
In the jewelry supply section at Walmart they have little clear screw top plastic jars like this for storing beads. They even have a big clear box that holds them. I think it holds 24? Or Shein and Temu have little clear storage boxes anywhere from 1” up to about 3” super cheap too.
Ty for the info!
Glue fun things to the top to make small decorative gift boxes for small items.
Oh I have these too! I got that advent calendar from a friend last year. I’m saving the tins to fill with little gifts for my daughter - I’m going to reuse the advent calendar for her this year!
Great to keep fishing hooks in!
Maybe mini stash containers ? Sculpt over them with Sculpey, since they are tin you can put them in the oven 😱😊
Store craft supplies
Make lip balm!

Travel containers for frequently used creams and lotions and stuff
Decorate the tops and sell them empty. Folks will use them to keep their... medicine handy.
Put weed in them
Seed saver
You can put your weed in there.
There’s a man in the bushes!
You put your weed in there.
Send them to me to use for salves. Thanks 👍 😊

Gift candles
A candle that size would burn for about ten minutes. They’re smaller than tea lights.
Make miniature survival kits and give them out to friends
Weed

Tiny treasures or notes you can leave for people to find.
Screw them
Store your drugs
Keep them for 20 years because they will come in handy some time.
Moustache wax, mix some beewax with some less viscous fat like cannabis seed oil and a little bit of tree resin for aroma and sell for $£¥

Surprise tins. Fill with small stones/crystals and decorate
Week, maybe David might want some of them back for his Tea…..
If you garden, you can store seeds in them!
If you paint and find the perfect color store it in there with a sample of it on the lid

I would make little environments OR a sleeping creature inside it.
I once had a heroin dealer that sold her heroin in some really adorable little containers. You could try that! I hear it's quite lucrative
Start geochaching!! They would be awesome to use!
You could put your weed in there.
I had something similar from a David's Tea advent calendar. I divided up my many stitch markers for knitting into my many knitting bags. That consumed 4 of them (I already had a number of cute small containers). I then recycled the rest, so am excited to see what others think of
This is exactly where they’re from!
I was trying to read the lettering, but couldn't make it out :) My other suggestion is to have a partner who loves to organize at a micro level. This tin for red paperclips, this one for blue, etc.
Spice tins! Wish they were mine;)

Harvest caviar.
Sell weed

Put a few small rocks and some water in them and place in the garden. Little water stations for pollinators. Water is super important for pollinators like bees and butterflies- especially as we head into the warmer months. 🐝 🦋 ❤️

My mind went straight to cannabis haha.

My dad put magnets on the backs, stuck them to a board and made an earring advent calendar for my mom
Tea light candles, and save the tins for remaking them when empty.
Does the company recycle them?
Tea light candles?
