Or little plastic bottles
Or little ziploc baggies
Suuureee I might not know right then what I’m gonna put in it. But I’ll be sure to find something! xD
I make hot sauce and often fill however many of these I have accumulated and give them away. Funny story: a friend really, really liked it so for the last batch they got a 2L bottle.
Spice rack!
I had about 20 of these and put spices in them. Then I added neodymium magnets on the lids and placed them in my fridge.
Perfect for prime bud
- use them to incubate seeds
- separate coins
- little bits of hardware
i save mine to organize different polished stones
I also hoard these things, but I put them to use for homemade chili oil, jams and jellies, and all kinds of other stuff. But there is a constant rotating supply of empty ones on my counter, because I hoard more of them than I can use. Sometimes I’ll make a bunch of hot sauce or something and give them out to friends just to get rid of the bottles.
My krypronite… I got a cheese advent calendar with a bunch of teeny tiny jars of pickle… I have yet to find a use for them but i’m certain they will be useful.
At christmas a supermarket here had fancy pate in little tiny kilner jars, after christmas they all got reduced to like, pennies, so i bought a ton of them. Currently using them to make little chia seed desserts.
Looks like a nice little condiment cup to me
I take lunches to work and use such containers for salad dressings.
They’re good for spices! Penzeys sends spices in packets (or cute jars) so all go into little jars to store easier!
I horde little cardboard boxes
Mine are filled with cat nails and fur and whiskers
You win, I thought I was weird using mine for small oil infusions. I hesitate to ask, but how and why the nails?
Phylactery Jar! It keeps our cats alive forever. We randomly find their nails all around the house.
Haha !Witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.ca would love that
Totally came here to say to put a charm in it.
I have so many little glass jars from the weed dispensary…
If you have/wear silver jewelry, store it in airtight jars/containers so it doesn’t tarnish when you’re not wearing it.

Little jars are great to hold screws when you need to take something apart to work on it.
I swapped to egg cartons. Many attached “compartments” in sequence make them convenient. As a bonus, it used to piss off my parents, who were incapable of organizing their projects, because egg cartons look silly.
I do the same but with ice trays
And many ice trays are stackable.
Open egg cartons are stackable!
WHAT?!?
Over a half century on this planet and TIL.
Most packaging is stackable open or closed or both because it has to be efficient at one point. There are still dozens of sizes and standards for cylindrical steel cans though, very annoying when you have a lot of different ones and some are imported, so they’re almost exactly the same size as some of your local ones but won’t stack because the lips are the wrong size.
My issue is that I can’t use jars for a purpose like that unless I have enough matching little jars.
If I have a pile of screws with 20 different types of screws, I will need 20 identical jars before I use them to hold that pile of screws.
Now I’ll have a loose pile of screws and a pile of 30+ mismatching jars awaiting a final purpose.
