That’s a great idea! We currently use these containers for compost and when my girls are sick. Once, my oldest had a concussion. We took a coffee canister along for the ride to the hospital and the nurses thought it was ingenious – being that these can be washed in the dishwasher and they have a lid to contain odor.
Thanks for the great idea!!!
These are a great idea! Some of them, though, don’t print out and when you click on the link, route you to another page on the site. Specifically, the money template. Any suggestions?

Hey, Nice blog. All the pictures are very attractive that you provide in this blog.
these are wonderful , can you maybe make some with disney on them..this would be great for my kids to save for our vacation.
I have 33.9 oz cans. Do you have any labels that will fit this size can?
These are awesome! And while it may be gross, I have one more use for these canisters to add to your list. For my small children, who cannot make it to the bathroom quickly enough when they have to throw up..I keep one in each of their beds. Gross but effective!
OMG! You are amazing! I was, literally, just this morning, looking at our big plastic container & thinking, “I’ve got to come up with a more creative way to reuse these!” I love the labels! Thank you!
