My latest passion is old metal mold containers. There is just something about them that catches my eye and makes me think of different ways to use them.
This is how I am using mine at the moment. It's filled with candy from Easter. I created a "candy bar" for the kids and adults who we had over on Easter. Now I'm thinking of new ideas of what it can hold....
Care to brainstorm with me? Any suggestions? I would love to hear them.... cause I'm ready for the candy to go..... I keep finding candy wrappers at 7:00 in the morning.... hmmmm I wonder who it could be!

That is so cute.
How about craft supplies.
The girl accessories. Hair clips, rubber bands.
How about an herb garden.
Tooooo cute!!
Great idea! Love the idea of the "candy bar"! I like maisy's idea of and herb garden. Have a good day Lulu!
What a clever idea! They would be great for holding embellishments in a craft room!
You are SO creative!! I'd love a candy bar that looked just like that!!
Hm, other ways to use it? I'm staring...I'm thinking...and I'm nixing all my own ideas.
That is a BAD sign :)
I'll work on it!
Maybe a "Seasons Tray...things that remind of you or summer, spring, winter, and fall in each bucket...yah...I'll get back to you :)
SO cute LuLu...I love that idea and as for other ideas, I can't think of any because I am transfixed on the sweet tarts and tootsie rolls...can you send some over to me?
They'd be great craft room/office organizers.All those brads and buttons!
When I first saw it I though craft supplies but I know we can think of something better....hmmmmmm....
I was thinking more seasonally too. My first thoughts were things from the beach; seashells, sand, little pebbles, etc.
Very cute idea!
after all that candy, how about tooth brushes, paste, and floss!!!!!!!!!!!!
personally, if those were mine, there would be sprinkles, wilton food coloring, and decorating tips!!!!!
How about silverware, napkins, office supplies, cosmetics and toiletries on a bathroom counter?
Love them!

OOh, I liked what Marcela was saying - a rustic counter-top version of a vanity - for makeup?
In the kitchen to hold vitamins/medicine/thermometers/etc?
Love the silverware, napkin rings, napkins option...
Oh Lulu - they're just TOO FUN!
Hugs to you...T.
Those molds are so cool! I have been looking on ebay for an old muffin tin. I think it would be great to keep little craft supplies in my craft room!
XOXO

Too cute! That makes me think of some of the things I have lying around that I could use for a cute purpose...
First thing comes to mind is craft holder....ribbons, stamps, etc. Cute...I have those same dollar tree holders...and I put them in a similiar container with candy for halloween.c herrycherry
