If you are a household with kids, there's no doubt that you receive at least one holiday tin of popcorn each season. You probably also get a few new Christmas ornaments each year as well. It's always a challenge to figure out how to stow away new ornaments added to your collection.
Since those popcorn tins are so large and decorative, I have a hard time putting them in the recycle bin. I repurpose them for storing fragile Christmas ornaments or delicate holiday decorations. The sturdy sides keep the breakables from getting crushed and I always know what's in them since they have holiday scenes on them. I also reuse some tissue paper from gifts to tuck around all the glass ornaments and breakables in the tins. They stack nicely and are easy to fit in just about anywhere.
This handy storage tip not only saves you from having to buy plastic tubs to put your ornaments or decorations in, it also helps the environment by reusing and repurposing something that would otherwise be discarded.
