You can also make lip gloss and put it in them. We used film canister that I boiled to clean.

Do you have any uses for these little plastic cream containers? Post them here!
They make lighting fixtures out of glueing together drink cups - could you do the same with those (check on flammability first). Or glue them to a large foarm ball to add texture to it for an off-beat pinata-type decoration or an Xmas decoration - and paint...
I don't know what you mean by rice SWAP?
I have used them to make clusters of bells for Christmas. Empty, wash out. Put a large knot on a length of heavy crochet thread or wool. Thread it through a pony bead. Leave about a half inch of thread and knot again. Thread a needle with this thread & punch it through the middle of the container from the inside.
All good ideas. The pity is why we have these containers in the first place. I wouldn't even want to venture the total amounts of those containers used everyday across this world.
Ok here are my 10 ideas to reuse those small half and half containers.
1. to store flower seeds you take from your garden for next year.
2.could be used for parts of homemade miniature furniture.
Believe it or not people just doing any of the reuses mention here in this or any of Thrifty fun's categories will help you save money, feel better about yourself and deduct emissions from global warming. If you would like a further explanation please feel free to email me.
TO REUSE IS TO SAVE SO MUCH

I am wanting to use the small individual creamer containers for a craft project. Where and how do I order unfilled containers? What is the cost and the minimum order? Please contact me through this site. Thanks.

Call the 800 number on the creamer and they can steer you in the right direction.
Are you talking about the small individual creamers like 1/2&1/2 or the international creamers restaurants serve? If you are friends with a wairtress or mgr. of a restaurant ask them to save them for you. You would probably be able to get 100's in one day. All they would have to do is keep a container next to their trash can to toss them in for you.
Why not put up a signs at the grocery store,elderly housing Apts., Laundromats, etc. & ask friends & family who use this item to wash & save them for you? I don't think you can buy empty ones- but I could be mistaken. Good Luck. Hope you find some. Happy crafting! : )
I have about 100 blue and green I would not mind giving to you if you could pay postage. Could you share what you are going to use them for?
Thank You
You can purchase your own at any Cash and Carry store, or store that caters to restaurant supply stores. Also there is this link to all things plastic. If you spot the size, you can click on the photo and get the ordering information. Good luck. You must share what you are doing?? PBP
