Reusable snack containers

DIY-Reusable snack containers

Say bye-bye to those little plastic bags. With just a few snips, you can create a set of cool, eco-friendly, reusable snack and sandwich containers from juice cartons and milk jugs. They're food-safe, easy to rinse clean, and absolutely free, so it's no biggie if they get tossed accidentally. Let your kids decorate the boxes with stickers and permanent markers for an even more personalized look.

What you'll need

SANDWICH BOX:

1-gallon milk jug
Marker
Scissors
Thumbtack
Adhesive-backed Velcro dot


How to make it

2. http://spoonful.com/sites/default/fi...9SCHOOLW15.jpgCut along the lines with scissors. To make the crease lines, use a thumbtack to pierce a row of dots at 1/4-inch intervals across each side of the jug, 1 3/4 inches up from the bottom.
3. http://spoonful.com/sites/default/fi...9SCHOOLW12.jpgFold the flaps at these dotted lines, then open them and fold them in the opposite direction along the lines (this will make the flaps easier for your kids to open and close). Fold up the box and add an adhesive-backed Velcro dot closure.
