Unseen Footprints

Parmesan Cheese Shakers Upcycle

in Cleaning, Homemaker on 14/12/16


parmesan cheese shakersIn an effort to be more eco-friendly and save money, I started looking at ways to repurpose items instead of recycling them. Not only have I reused many items, but I have also saved money by not buying other products.  One of my best up-cycles have been repurposing parmesan cheese shakers are great containers to be cleaned out and used again.

Reusing Parmesan Cheese Shakers

Cleaning

Because I use so much baking soda, I buy the bulk bag at Walmart. Even though it is more economical, It’s hard to lug that bag around when I’m cleaning around the house. After emptying a parmesan cheese shaker, I realized that it was the perfect size to store baking soda in. I now have three containers to store baking soda in both of my bathrooms and kitchen.

Storage containers

Cheese shakers fit in a cup holder, so they are also great for storing miscellaneous supplies in the car- crayons, pens, bobby pins, etc.

Dry Shampoo Storage

I use this dry shampoo recipe for my hair. Most of the time, I use the wide mouth of the lid and stick a brush in the jar to apply the dry shampoo to my hair. Other times, I use the slotted side and shake it directly on my hair.

Snack containers

Nuts, chips, candy- all can be easily stored in a parmesan cheese shaker and added to your lunch box for easy snacking. This helps reduce waste and save money by not using sandwich bags everyday.
