I wanted to take some cookies to my friend but I wanted them to look cute rather than just on a paper plate or something. So I used an empty Pringles tube.
It was so easy to decorate with gift wrap, scrapbooking paper, ribbon and a circle punched from a Christmas card, and it fit 19 cookies perfectly.
This is such an inspired idea! Wish I had been keeping up with my blog reading over the Christmas break, it'd have been a more elegant way to present my first attempt at homebaked goods to the in-laws than the baking tray covered in wrapping paper to which I eventually resorted :D
love the container - what a great idea for packaging cookies! I will definately be pinching this idea :)
ReplyDelete(how did you clean it?)
I just did a quick wash inside with soapy water, making sure not to wet the outside, and put it on the radiator to dry thoroughly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for reusing something that would normally end up in the trash! You always have the cutest ideas!

Have been doing this myself for a couple years now. I use craft paper or card stock and Mod Podge. It's fabulous!
