Decorated Powdered Drink Containers


With four kids, we go through the powdered drinks (crystal light) quickly in out house, leaving lots of little plastic containers around. I started wondering what I could use them for and if I could make them look cute.  I found they can be cut down too if they are too tall.

{Here are some uses for them}
Hair accessories, tooth brush holder, makeup brush holder, travel jewlery container, bead holder, needle point floss holder (cut cardboard to slide into container and wrap floss around it.  Great for kids that make friendship bracelets) May Day baskets, party favor containers, gift boxes, tea, candy, markers and Crayons, craft supplies, cotton balls/qtips, marbles, action figures, Barbie accessories, Nerf gun bullets, planters for little plants....you name it!

 {What do you need?}
Plastic powdered drink containers
Coordinating papers
Glue
Embellishments
Ribbon (If making into baskets with handles)

Tip: Cut the wrapper off and use as template to cut paper to go around container.

Have fun and decorate!
