Film containers are a great prize for teachers too. I teach a rocket science unit to fourth and fifth graders and we use these to make Alka-Seltzer rockets. The clear ones make the best seal.

Hi Michelle-

Thanks for the comments you sent my way. I found out from my local phootgraphy store, that they still get a lot of the film canisters. They told me that in our local high school the kids have to learn photography the old fashioned way first, before they can take a digital class. You may want to check out a photography store near a high school for the film canisters.

My best- Diane

This is one of the coolest ideas to come along in quite a while. Only problem is that there might not be many of them around anymore. I think I might still have a few kicking around, but it would be so fun for stockings at Christmas! Love it!

These are really pretty. At first, I won’t lie, I thought they were going to be really cutesy but I would love to give or get one of these. I loved that you showed all the different possibilities and uses of so many different fabric treatments. Now, I wonder if I have any of these babies in an old junk drawer somewhere? :)

Great idea for film cannisters. I loved the idea that the reader gave about putting quarters in them and giving them college students as a gift for doing the laundry. Those might be covered in instructions on how to operate a washing machine! Thank you for your kind comments on my latest post. Hope tha tyou’ll visit again and check out my other entries.
