Prescription bottle idea's

Now that Lee and I both take meds on a regular basis, we are accumilating a ton of empty prescription bottles. So, I am on a mission to find as many idea's as I can: Just thought I'd share my findings. Keep checking back, I'll update if I find more.

Simple Reuse and Recycle Options

• Store spare change. The bottle will fit right in the car, a purse, or a desk/nightstand drawer.
• Store small office supplies.This can include paper clips, rubber bands, and more.
• Store small craft and/or sewing supplies, such as beads, small buttons, and thread bobbins.
• Create a glitter shaker by punching holes in the top.
• Store small tools and repair supplies, such as nails and screws.
• Create a sewing kit. Fill the bottle with a small spool of thread, a button, a needle, and a safety pin.
• Create a cat toy by filling the bottle with small beans or bells.
• Store any number of other small items, such as headphones.
• Soak/store reeds for musical instruments.
• Reuse with other medications, such as vitamins or Ibuprofen to keep at work or in your purse.
• Donate. Some veterinary offices and local humane societies will take washed bottles with the labels removed to use for their animal prescriptions.
• Recycle. Check with your local recycling center to see if they have a special method for collecting pill bottles. If they do, make a box at home for your bottles so they don't clutter up cabinets or counter space in between recycling trips.

• Consider decorating and/or labeling your pill bottles.
