I had some large cans that I wanted to use, filled with geraniums, for planters on my porch. I loved the original labels on the cans, so I just used a decopadge (sp?) glue to cover the labels and permenently seal them on the cans. Worked great and there was no need to even paint the cans, which worked well for me.
I use my spaghetti sauce jars for drinking. I have other decent glasses but these are sturdy and good for those frequent trips to the water jug. I also measure the water into my percolator with one of them. They make nice containers for plants which need to be rooted in water.
