Ideas for plastic containers. HINTS FROM HELOISE:
Dear Readers: The question of what to do with all of your empty plastic containers motivated many of you to send me some hints:
Carol F.: “Call a day care center. They usually can use empty plastic containers for crayons, paints or other craft materials.”
Win G.: “I give them to a local senior center, and they use them to send any leftovers home after the daily lunches.”
April B.: “I keep them and fill them with Christmas cookies and candies.”
June K.: “I keep a supply of chalk in empty containers so my granddaughters can draw on the sidewalk when they visit.”
Thanks to all my readers who had so many great ideas to share.
