As I was cleaning & dusting my table in the entry ,I thought you all might like this tip. I reuse Glade scented oil candleholders for, catch-alls like change, keys & saftey pins. You could also use them to make your own candles, just turn them over, WaLa!Bonus* they are magnetized(sp?)and they are weighted too :thumbup:
