those plastic containers that mushrooms come in. I have tons of them and can't throw them away because they have to have a second life somewhere. Any ideas? |

When I worked as a preschool teacher, we often used those containers to organize our craft supplies, or used them for projects with the kids. Perhaps you can talk to your local child care centers and see if they have a use for them.

If you don't want to use them yourself, you could always give them to someone who sells veggies at your local farmer's market. I've seen people use them to put tomatoes in to sell.

I use those containers to stuff strips of fabric in. I separate light and dark and am planning on making a log cabin quilt or 2.

That's what I use them for as well as all the styrofoam trays that meat is packaged in. Just make sure you poke holes in the bottom so you don't end up drowning your seedlings.

use them to start seeds in. containers like that make great "mini greenhouse" seed starters.
