I use them for portable sewing kits for use in the car. I can get my small scissor snips, seam ripper, thimble, marking pen, tweezers, slender thread spool, a few needles and pins in there and even embroidery thread of the few colors I will be using. They are so handy. I love the containers.
GMTA! I have a mini sewing kit in one of mine too. Reading on, as dh drinks it a lot so I have ?a few? lol :p |

I don't use Crystal Light, but I have some of those grated cheese containers. One is filled with safety pins. I open the the little flip cap and pour them out when I am pinning something and later drop them back in, one by one.

I use them for binding clips and my tiny embroidery scissors.
|
I use them for bobbins, buttons, for a smaller rotary cutter, or miscellaneous "stuff"

I don't use Crystal Light, but I have saved the Gerber plastic baby food containers with the reclosable lid. They work great for quilting pins and for single spools of thread plus needle and needle threader when you just need one spool to take...I've use them for other purposes as well, but your imagination is the best for finding your own uses for them. Thank you for the idea for the Crystal Light container!

I also used a sesame seed container for holding the small red snapper pieces and some coffee and hot chocolate containers for my wonder clips. |
Wow, thanks for all the creative uses!
