    My mother-in-law is always eatting Pringles, but she is also always calling me on the phone and asking "Could you make something out of this?". Hence, I resently started getting Pringle tins from her... a couple a week.

    I made a tin for my crochet hooks out of one, and the other I think I will use for my brushes when painting away from home.

    youcan also make rainsticks out of them! Just drive nails in and fill it with rice or beans, decorate the outside and voila! I'm trying to procure enough right now so that my students can make them :0)

    Your decorations look neat.

    You can also use them as a base for tying complex Turks Heads.
