I live in a one bedroom apartment with my husband and our Grand-kitty. You can only image how I handle storage in a space that has its limits. This is a great idea that I know I can implement right away. I can bring some things off the desk top and still have access to them and clear up desk top space. Love this idea.

I am always on the scout for ways to recycle "everything". Some of my aluminum cans do not go to the recycle center because I will use them here in the house. For the most part, they take up there duty station out of sight. Now I can have them front and center after I cover them with these can cozies.

My husband is such an avid recycler that I need to act quickly to rescue any materials I might need. So when it came time for the Green Bean Casserole this Thanksgiving, I already warned him not to touch the empty cans! Since I generally use lined cans anyway, I just need to wrap the top with colored duct tape. I love these handy little catch alls and Ive made several for myself and as teacher gifts (fill with pens and pencils).
